Maybe try with recent mplayer (from svn).. and give it "-demuxer lavf -lavdopts fast:threads=2 -no-correct-pts" or something similar.. you can also try with threads=4 etc..
"mplayer -demuxer lavf -lavdopts fast:threads=4 -nocorrect-pts ..." gives steady but slow motion (roughly 50% speed) video. It is weird that the load on CPU1 and CPU2 is less than 40% during playback according to gnome system monitor. Somehow mplayer is not able to max both CPUs close to 100%.
With mplayer I noticed that the video is 1080i -- it is silly to broadcast interlaced crap. That probably explains why vdr xinelibout choked due to greedy de-interlacer that is pretty power consuming for 1080i. Other channels such as Arte HD (arte HD;ZDFvision:11362:hC23M5O0S1:S19.2E:22000:6210:6221=deu,6222=fra:6230:0:11120:1:1011:0) work OK.
Hi. What card are you using to get DVB-S2 ? CPU power ? Dual-core ? GHz ?
I have now AMD X2 4600 and DVB-T YLE HD is a bit jerky, sometimes, playing recordings from YLE HD is totally jerky. Wondering if getting quad-core 2.6GHz would help any.
A friend of mine was able to view DVB-T YLE HD on dual-core Intel core2 3 GHz CPU.. I think it didn't work very well on 2,66 GHz dual-core one.
Notice that there was been some optimizations and fixes lately to mplayer/ffmpeg/libavcodec so you should be running latest SVN version..
Or then you could try with CoreAVC H.264 codec..
And just to make it clear, DVB-T YLE HD is 720p.. not 1080i.
