Tom:
Thanks for the suggestion but I don't believe I am using XvMC - I don't
think ATI currently support it (can't see a mention on the Rage3D forums).
I looked through the 'extremely choppy video' thread again, as I did a few
days back, but could not really see anything of use. Except perhaps the
post:
"I had this exact problem when playing the sound through ALSA dmix.
I workarounded it by using the actual ALSA hardware device instead. "
Any idea how I can check this? My output is set to ALSA:default and
mixer=default is this correct?
I will try the video as timeline option tonight. I have already tried
turning off priority threads and the chmod a+s.
