[Bug 303697] Re: [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use

2009-03-09 Thread gsf_atx
I've tried enabling the OpenGL video output in xorg.conf as well as
selecting it as output type in vlc. There is still tearing, it doesn't
seem to improve.

On a good note, I have built, installed and set up the RadeonHD free
xorg driver (v1.2.4) and video playback is superb. Unfortunately, that
driver doesn't have any DRI support for my video chip, so I must use
full software rendering. My CPU can handle HD resolution video without
any noticeable problem.

I restarted with the FGLRX driver and played the video under vlc with
the same options (hardware acceleration disabled) and there was still
tearing.

Many thanks for attempting to help me solve this. I had already
performed the steps you outlined above to no avail.

I also tried using the aticonfig -ov command to modify xorg.conf for gl
overlay.

I mistyped the model# of my video chip, it's the 3200, it's an onboard
780 video chip, one of the newer low-end chips I believe.

I have the same issue using the 9.2 driver and a HD3400 onboard an ASUS
M3A78-EM MB connected to a SONY KDS-50XBR1 via HDMI (NO DVI/HDMI
adaptor). Glad to test beta driver or any other software/configuration
mods.

Thanks for addressing this issue! It is a showstopper on my HTPC.

Ha! Funny, I bought this board because of the past problems I've had with
nvidia. I think any new hardware will have issues in linux or windows,
regardless.

I had 2 6800GT cards, paid $350 for each. One died and the other one is on
its way out now. No overclocking, upgraded cooling.

We'll see how this plays out. I'm pissed I can't watch a video on my new
htpc.
