I tuned the xineliboutput config a lot before I got anything bearable for HD channels. However, it turned out the the video buffers were the main problem, so most of the rest can use defaults. My current settings are dumped below: 0|~ > egrep -v '^#' /tmp/config_xineliboutput|egrep -v '^$' .version:2 audio.device.alsa_front_device:default audio.device.alsa_mixer_name:Master audio.device.alsa_mmap_enable:1 audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Surround 5.1 audio.synchronization.av_sync_method:resample video.output.vdpau_hd_deinterlace_method:half temporal video.processing.ffmpeg_thread_count:4 effects.goom.fps:25 effects.goom.height:576 effects.goom.width:720 engine.buffers.audio_num_buffers:500 engine.buffers.video_num_buffers:250 engine.buffers.video_num_frames:22 engine.performance.memcpy_method:libc I launch vdr-sxfe with a command that overrides video_num_buffers, since it keeps getting silently reverted to 250 in the conf: 0|~ > grep xvdr /tmp/open-vdr-sxfe.sh vdr-sxfe xvdr+tcp://localhost:37890 --post tvtime:method=use_vo_driver --audio=alsa --fullscreen --video=vdpau --reconnect --buffers=1000 The result is still not perfect with occasional glitches but it's not bad and after fighting for months with just getting HD channels running I'm quite happy. I hope it helps. Cheers, Jonas _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
