I'd guess it's a field parity issue though.

Andy Ritger (nvidia) said in a mail to the xorg mailing list some time ago; "If the application doesn't enable de-interlacing, NVIDIA's VDPAU implementation will currently copy the weaved frame to the "progressive" surface, and whether it will come out correctly will depend whether the window's offset from the start of the screen is odd or even." I take this to imply that field parity should be possible, but the application in use have to detect the field flag from the source material and set the Y offset appropriately to be 0 or 1 accordingly. Progressive material seems to display correctly. -- Torgeir Veimo torgeir@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
