<pre wrap="">I have the logs going to the ram disk again and I am still having skipping
problems. We watched a movie on tv and had it playing for a few hours (SD) and
later went to watch a 1080i recording. At that point it was skipping like crazy
with 95%+ cpu usage. After a quick reboot it was playing great for the next
hour using 55% cpu or so.
The video card is a fanless 6200 and nvclock reports it at 59C after playing
back 1080i for an hour and is still running at the same speeds as when it started.
Welp, any one have any tips?

I though I had de-interlacing turned off under all xvmc playback
profiles but it was still on under one. I have it turned off too now
so we shall see if that helps.<br>
<br>
I do not have any cpu throttling enabled.<br>
<br>
On another note, I have started to look into replacing this box in case
it comes to that. The WAF is going down real fast considering almost
all her shows are HD and I have been needing to build a less powerful
frontend for another room anyway. So, assuming I am going with an
Athlon X2, how fast would I need to ensure future abilities for h264
and a future bluray rom to playback uncompressed?<br>

So I am still having skipping problems, but it is a lot better. I
disabled extra video buffering and that also seems to help. Now
usually when it would starts skipping pausing it for a few seconds
helps to clear it up. Sadly, disabling the de-interlacer has a big
drop is picture quality. We shall see how things go now.<br>
<br>
Any tips on a bluray capable X2 speed?<br>
