Hello,

I was getting comfortable in order to watch the F1 Grand Prix that got
recorded earlier in the day.

It starts playing fine for a minute or two, then the video stutters
badly.

The logs are saying this when it starts stuttering:

2010-11-14 18:05:33.665 Player(5): Video is 3.85313 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
2010-11-14 18:05:33.665 Player(5): Video is 4.55232 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
2010-11-14 18:05:33.685 Player(5): Video is 4.82673 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
2010-11-14 18:05:33.685 Player(5): Video is 4.90753 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
2010-11-14 18:05:33.685 Player(5): Video is 4.71812 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.
2010-11-14 18:05:33.706 Player(5): Video is 4.33232 frames behind audio (too slow), dropping frame to catch up.

Full logs of a playback that starts fine and ends stuttering (when
frames are being dropped) here:

It does that to every recording that I play back. It hasn;t done it on
the 720p

I tried multiple ALSA outputs for S/PDIF, same result. It is currently
set to ALSA:iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0

VDPAU filters are: vdpaucolospace=auto,vdpaustudio, vdpauhqscaling

Deinterlacer is Advanced 2X HW, fallback on Advanced 1X HW.

System is Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit, Mythbuntu nightly builds for 0.24, VDPAU
on GT220.
