Hi - am at my wits end!!!
I've now tried vdr-xine-0.9.3 with XV and with VDPAU, and several settings in .xine/config for engine.buffers.audio_num_buffers (2300) and engine.buffers.video_num_frames (60) but I still get skips in audio and video when viewing recorded programs - which I don't get in vdr-xine-0.8.0.
The skips occur at the same time as VDR console messages "buffering xx frames", and start out OK when watching the program but within a few minutes deteriorate further and further.
I've been trying to upgrade from 0.8.0 since 2007 now - but it's the only version which works flawlessly for me.
My production box has: vdr-1.6.0 fedora 10 with latest kernel fluxbox and X window manager latest standard v4l-dvb drivers plugins: vdr-xine-0.8.0, iptv, epgsearch, skinenigmang, femon, radio, recstatus, pvrinput. xine started with : xine --no-splash -Bfpqg --hide-gui -r anamorphic -V xv -Dtvtime:method=Greedy2Frame,cheap_mode=0,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1 --post vdr_video --post vdr_audio vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes
I've tested the following vdr-1.7.9 with the s2-liplianin drivers vdr-1.7.9 with the standard latest v4l-dvb drivers vdr-xine various versions from 0.8.1 right up to 0.9.3 xine-lib-1.2 with VDPAU and with XV output started by either: xine --no-splash -Bfpqg --hide-gui -r anamorphic -V vdpau -Dtvtime:method=Greedy2Frame,cheap_mode=0,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1 --post vdr_video --post vdr_audio vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#dex:mpeg_pes OR xine --no-splash -Bfpqg --hide-gui -r anamorphic -V xv -Dtvtime:method=Greedy2Frame,cheap_mode=0,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1 --post vdr_video --post vdr_audio vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes
Can someone share their experiences with VDPAU and vdr-xine, or offer any suggestions???
Thanks Simon
