Bug ID: 428705 Summary: Choppy and laggy system on NVidia drivers Product: kwin Version: 5.20.2 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: compositing Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: j.mir.pra...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Everything is slugish unless I force in kwinrc maxfps and refreshrate to 3x my real refresh rate. Most noticible is video playback but also windows animations. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Test Big Buck Bunny 60fps version on NVidia drivers in MPV (my setups have 60Hz monitors) 2. Change kwinrc file MaxFPS and RefreshRate in composition section to 3x your refresh rate 3. Test the same video again OBSERVED RESULT Video is noticibly more fluid with that "hack". Without it, it is really not suitable for any kind of video screening. EXPECTED RESULT Video (and overall system animations) are fluid without excesive manipulation with related parameters. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.20 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.75.0 Qt Version: 5.15.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION NVidia drivers 450 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
