Hi,
Playing videos with mplayer produces an output of
************************************************
**** Your system is too SLOW to play this! ****
************************************************
, diplaying of dvb-t broadcasts are often interrupted (screen freezes,
audio continues) or otherwise disturbed (colored blocks, "flashes"
etc.)
The CPU meter of gkrellm shows a high overall CPU load with a greater
part of load of system processes.
Another indication of something, which is going wrong here is, that blender
goes into the digital nirwana when rendering sometimes, whith a 100%
system load.
I suspect the opengl/graphic interface of my PC is somehow screwed up.
I am using (32bit system):
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
on a ASUS AV8 mainboard (VIA chipset)
nVidia Corporation GeForce 7600 GT (rev a2) graphics adapter (AGP)
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-177.82 USE="acpi gtk -custom-cflags (-multilib)
Everything else not graphic/opengl related works fine and as fast as
one could expect from a PC like that.
I installed nvidia drivers vi aemerge which automagically eselects the
opengl interface.
I attached the latest xorg.log for information purposes.
It works for a couple of time...and then (time unknown) problems
arises as described.
How can I pinpoint the problem and how can I fix it?
Kind regards,
Meino Cramer

are you using composite? if yes, don't. Or install the latest nvidia driver.

This is -- according to "emerge -pv..." the newest available...
Is it needed to switch off Composite with that version ?

Despite the version of the driver, I commented out all lines regarding
Composite in the Xorg config.
Unfortunately nothing has changed after X's restart.

no, it is not. The latest are 180something and they solved some 2d slowness
issues with that driver.
> Is it needed to switch off Composite with that version ?
composite makes 2d very slow with drivers prior to 180. You don't have to
disable composite in xorg.conf. Just don't use compiz and deactivate all
effects in gnome/kde.
btw, xorg.conf would be nice to see.

...eeeh...how can I get the newest driver in a gentoo-compatible way?
I set
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers ~x86
in /etc/package/package-keywords.
Emerge reports the previously mentioned (non-180) version of the nvidia drivers.
I attached Xorg.conf to this email.

This xorg.conf gaves me a flickery (to low refresh rate) highly
offseted screen with slim and after login the screen is somehow
scrambled blockwise. I am not using hal for X11 due to othe problems
(see previous problems reported here).
I switched back to my old xorg.conf.
What do you mean with "ts" and "bs"?

strange. Your monitor and your card should set up a perfect picture just by
using edid data.
tb = triple buffering, bs = backingstore.

With the new ebuild for the nvidia-180* driver I installed that
driver. Now disturtion of dvb-t broadcast has gone but still having
high system load (system processes). The beside kaffeine quiet system
gets about 50% system process load (sum of both CPUs).
I removed backingstore and triple buffering in beforehand.
Any ideas to decrease load?

you could try xine or mplayer - from their cvs. AFAIK they support vdpau,
which means nice video acceleration. Or you could try tvtime as a tv
application. Is kaffeine using xv or shm?

once a upon a time I choose kaffeine over xine, mplayer and such,
because channel switching seems a lot of pain to be with the others
to me.
And to setup the chennel frequencies and settings....uuuuhhh.
Kafeine: "Scan channels", "Add channels"...and you are done.
But may be my experience is to old in this special case.
By the way:
xv is a lot of [CENSORED] with my NVIDIA card. I had a lot of trouble
to find a way to regulate brightness and such on a per application
basis. The only way I found (which by no means is to be read as
"there is no other way than..." ;) was to switch the xine
video interface of kaffeine from xv to xshm.
May be there is another chance in this corner of the problem to improve
all this?
Suggestions are welcome :)
Very welcome.... :O)

well xshm does create a lot of load, there is not much you can do about it.
You could try other ways like sdl, ogl or xvmc. But why not just use xv? It
works well with tvtime - and you can change the brightness or contrast - on a
per channel basis. Hmpf, tvtime will not work.. so kaffeine it is. ....

ehhh...sorry...I didnt understand. It seems to me that the first part
of your mail states, that xv (which is a problem for nvidia cards like
mine as much as I can say and nof the apllikation ... ) will work with
tvtime and the second part states the opposite...
help me please, I am older than 20... ;)

my first point is that tvtime is a nice tv application, that uses xv.
my second is that tvtime does not work with dvb-t adapters that sent a mpeg2
stream to the tv application - which most dvb-t adapters do.
if you think your load is too high, try opengl, sdl, xvmc as 'video driver'
instead of xshm.
