</div>I haven't noticed any tearing in Mythfrontend on Mythbuntu 14.04.<br>
<br>
I did get some in XBMC, which I fixed by adding:<br>
<br>
xserver-command=X -bs<br>
<br>
to disable the backing store as per advice in the XBMC forums. For the<br>
record, they say don't add Option "TearFree" "true" to xorg.conf,<br>
which I had previously used to fix tearing in Mythfrontend in<br>
previousl version of Mythbuntu.<br>

</div>I will try and post a sample that demonstrates the issue.<br>

</div>Yes, me too. It seems a lot better in 14.04, other problems notwithstanding.<br>
