composite "improvements" are not official... since they crash video playback

No. You need a 780G Chipset (3200 HD IGP) and a 2400 or 34XX card afaik.
But the single 3850 is faster than the IGP/dedicated-combination anyway.

Yes i know but but the IGP dont need so many Power compared with my HD 3850.

So are you saying that this driver doesn't work as it should with composite? I'm asking because it's the second time AMD states in their changelog they have done fixes to make video playback work. Now I hope you are wrong or I'll have to think they just like to lie.

So, can someone confirm video playback works as it should with xv and composite enabled? If Yes, +10 to AMD, if not -1000 for lieying .

How now that works with KDE 4? (RadeonHD) ?

I heard Nexuiz change resolution crash is fixed.

Yep, I can confirm, the issue with compositing still exists. When I use smplayer with XV enabled it just crashes my X (Ubuntu 8.10, Compiz or Metacity composite). Also OpenGL screen flickering is still there when using Compiz.

Nitpick: Why is the publish date on the article January 21st, when it just showed up an the 29th?
