You could try increasing VLC's buffer size, to see if that helps. But, another reason for tearing (depending on what you mean by tearing) could be because your monitor's framerate is different from the video's frame rate, so motion changes could appear very obviously during the middle of a video frame. This is something I see a lot (working in video production I know you cannot *simply* play something at the wrong frame rate, successful conversion is quite a complex thing to do). And computer video editing can be a pain for this reason, you're unsure if unwanted artefacts are in the video you're editing, or the monitor you're watching on, unless you can set everything to run at the same rate. You could try setting your frame rate to match the video source's frame rate, or be an exact double. Of course that depends on your video card giving you that option. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 (yes, this is the output from uname for this PC when I posted) Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
