If you are refering to the 1.2 vdpau patches from http://www.jusst.de/vdpau/files/xine-lib-1.2/ then I believe the r??? number refers to the subversion version number of xine-vdpau from svn://jusst.de/xine-vdpau. In other words, the patch takes the xine-lib 1.1 vdpau code and moves it to 1.2.

It has fixed the freezing. At the risk of getting annoying I have another question: With live TV on SD material (e.g. BBC News), I get a lot of dropped frames ( around 5 %) (HD is worse, around 20%): video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405183661 because it's too old (diff : 4067). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405223261 because it's too old (diff : 4081). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405475261 because it's too old (diff : 4037). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405612061 because it's too old (diff : 4042). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405658861 because it's too old (diff : 4099). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405698461 because it's too old (diff : 4068). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405734461 because it's too old (diff : 4076). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405784861 because it's too old (diff : 4072). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405828061 because it's too old (diff : 4080). video_out: throwing away image with pts 2405874861 because it's too old (diff : 4078). 200 frames delivered, 0 frames skipped, 10 frames discarded If I record the channel and play it back it is fine. Most of my xine settings are the default, except for video_num_frames: # number of audio buffers # numeric, default: 230 #engine.buffers.audio_num_buffers:230 # number of video buffers # numeric, default: 500 - tried 500, 800, 900, 1000, and 1500. 900 seems to give the best results #engine.buffers.video_num_buffers:500 # default number of video frames # numeric, default: 15 engine.buffers.video_num_frames:22 I have for the xine-ui plugin, the defaults, although I've also tried setting Live-TV buffer and Buffer hysteresis to 5 and 8 with no noticeable difference.

Re: [vdr] xine settings for VDPAU SD and HD
I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions other then maybe try a newer version of xine-ui. Every time I update xine-vdpau, I update my xine-ui cvs source as well and all I can really say is that I haven't experienced the problem you described. Btw, I don't actually 'update' my sources, I always grab a fresh copy. I do this mainly for archiving purposes and so it's easy to fall back to a previous revision/tree/whatever in case of problems with the current one. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Re: [vdr] xine settings for VDPAU SD and HD
I don't know if this will help you any but I use xine-vdpau for both sdtv & hdtv. I haven't changed anything in .xine/config so the buffer settings and so on are whatever they are as default. My box runs debian with vdr-1.7.7 and xine-0.9.2 in case that matters. Currently using xine-vdpau r266 released earlier today and nvidia driver 185.18.14 with an 8400GS (with spdif connected to it).

[vdr] xine settings for VDPAU SD and HD
I'm trying to get VDPAU working so I can watch HD TV, but I'm having trouble getting a good picture. My question is should I be using the xine options: --post vdr_video --post_audio or --post tvtime:method=use_vo_driver I dont understand what the difference is and whether one is preferred over the other for interlaced and/or HD/SD.
