Hi,
I'm still fighting with high cpu usage in xv extension whem playing media
files (xine, mplayer, vlc) under Suse 9.0 , xfree 4.3.0-29 and sis 651 with
latest sis drivers.
All log outputs seems fine, just xvtest is at low 200 FPS and cpu is hig
(30-50%) when playing video that does rescaling.
Are there any utities to check what is going on in xv extension (xine-check
reports all fine) ?
What should I try to find solution ?
I'm attaching xvinfo (all other relevant logs are attached to my previous
posts) if anything suspicious is in there ?
PS.: system performance was OKsome time ago, then did some upgrades and now
it won't perform as needed - so I guess there is someking of settings
problem...
I kindly ask for any advice, help, cause this is too hard for me as newbie.
Thanks for any help in advance,
regards,
Robert.
