I've resorted to a multithreaded mplayer for my media center until GPU acceleration happens. You just have to check out the current mplayer and current ffmpeg-mt, then replace the libavcodec,...

If you want to pm me your address (if it's a suitable model), I have an older Gigabyte motherboard with a Radeon x1250 embedded and a single PCIe slot on it and an Athlon X2 4600+ I'd be willing to...

The main purpose for that card you're commenting on is low-profile cases for things like media centers. Sometimes you're limited by form factor. I'll bet you could even get an HDMI->DVI adapter...

Case 1 seems to be what's happening to me when I installed Fedora 11. And 12 Alpha. The LiveCD detected a display and ran fine, but when I installed it just didn't want to play nicely with my two...

So let's make it "Please make sure you have your towel" ;)

So, say I have an Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic alpha install (kept updated), a Radeon 4670 (on an RS690/X1250 board, so I could test that, too)... would that be a non-TTM system? Would I be able to help with...

With 99%/50%, that means you've got a single thread pegged for decoding 1080p. Since there's no hardware H.264/VC-1 decode acceleration for ATI under Linux yet, if you have a multi-core CPU I'd...

I think I've stated it elsewhere, but on the mplayerhq.hu homepage they give you instructions on how to compile the mplayer-mt. It lets me play 1080p on an Athlon X2 4600+ CPU with Xv. While it's not...

Gnome desktop effects work great for me (even the full uber-mode) on my integrated x1250 and Jaunty, so I can't imagine it'd be any worse on an x1650.

Does an admin wanna delete that spam from "JealousFraud"?

Not yet working. But it will ;) I just bought a 4670, gonna put it in with my integrated X1250 so I can test and hopefully submit bug reports and such soon. It's getting there ;)

Just FYI... when you're working remotely, you can just "export DISPLAY=:0" and then run glxinfo, glxgears, any of that as long as you have your X server running on the remote machine (and it's server...

If you use mplayer (or smplayer, anything that uses mplayer as the actual video player), the latest versions of mplayer-mt have worked wonders for me (the bit about the git pulls and using the...

The hiccup is in libGL. I believe that's part of mesa, so make sure you have that installed and working right. MythTV uses GL overlays for a lot of the standard graphics (I think 0.22 and later use...

Dude... talk about a zombie.

Anyway, the RS690 works decently with 3D. I have one in my desktop. Well enough to run glxgears and Compiz at least. This has been covered in numerous other threads.

Check the post by grahamlthompson. He says that the TV won't take anything higher than 720p...

What about power settings? Is there a chance that the CPU downclocked while running these tests, or is the userspace governor set to Performance? That could quite easily cause a major performance...
