I'm running yavdr unstable-vdr packages on an Asrock 330HT box (ION)
with xubuntu oneiric. 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
