Also one thing to look out for is that the 1030 actually comes in GDDR5 and DDR4 variants. They are priced very similarly, but performance of DDR4 is absolute garbage compared to GDDR5! I doubt this will have an effect when it comes to video decoding capability, but paying about the same for half the performance doesn't seem like a good idea to me. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org https://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

This setting is only useful if your display device can't scale on its own or the scaling is worse quality. If you enable it the card will always output native resolution at native refresh. If disabled the gpu will not touch the mode and output whatever you tell it to, in which case the display itself will have to scale the mode as needed. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Also, the quality is actually worse - during action scenes objects seem to be a bit jerky and have lines momentarily. Only advantage, under vdpau the cpu sits at about 40%, where under xv it sits 50-70%. Any thoughts? I had the same kind of issues you describe (bad frame rate, high cpu load, tearing, picture freezing for a long while etc) and only fix I found was to disable the composite extension in Xorg. You can do it simply by adding Section Extensions Option Composite Disable EndSection to xorg.conf. This will make it impossible to use the hud osd so expect some hideous scaling artifacts, but the cpu load stays well under 10% on a Sempron LE-1250 clocked at 1.8GHz and frame rates are smooth with no tearing. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
