Hi,

I have a server containing the DVB cards, and a separate frontend machine using VDR via xine-network. In the frontend machine I have AMD sempron 3400+, NVidia FX5200, 512MB RAM. I'm using the tv-out (via S-video) from the Nvidia card, and I'm using xv for video output Greedy2Frame/GreedyH deinterlacer. My frontend machine also boots up through network and has root file system behind NFS on the server..

I have a very persistent problem with my system that I would hope someone could give some hints.. The video stutters occasionally, especially with high motion video e.g. icehockey and football. With these kind of content the video is not even near "smooth", it kind of stops and jumps every couple of seconds or even more frequently. But on the other hand with most of time with some "normal" content the problems are not so visible and disturbing. I think it is not about cpu power at least, the whole system load seems to be around 80% when watching.

 

Regards and thanks in advance..
