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. -- [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303697 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
