It only seems to be an issue with rips of that size and BluRay bitrate. I'm having occasional stutters and dropped video frames as shown in the log I've attached. I've disabled the vdpaubuffersize=48 and vdpaustudiocolor from my VDPAU Playback Profile (Advanced 2x). I don't seem to be having issues with any of my 1080i MPEG2 recordings from OTA TV. I've also enabled "Extra Audio Buffering" and disabled "Real-Time Priority". Once I did that, I thought all was solved. It was well over an hour before I saw those errors again. Compositing has been disabled via xorg.conf and I've even set the nVidia PowerMizer to Performance Mode. I had to do that with a separate script that runs after Xorg loads. I added to AUTOSTART in MythBuntu. I've verified that PowerMizer is set to 1 after a reboot.</div>
<div><br></div><div>My question: Is my setup just too slow to handle the BluRay bitrate I'm trying to put through my machine? Is it time for me to build a new front end machine? Or is there something else I'm missing? Should I ditch the GT430 and get a 520? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!</div>
