Not yet. + +Q: + Why mpeg2 doesn't use less cpu than software decoder? +A: + Because at that moment it does a lot of memcpy. This will be fixed soon, but that's not + a priority. Stability is our focus. + +Q: + Is deinterlacing working? +A: + Yes. It's already quite good (doing 50i->50p), but could even be better in the future. + +Q: + How do i get it working with VDR, Kaffeine, whatever. +A: + Ask VDR, Kaffeine, whatever developers. + (Note: for kaffeine you are lucky, i'm going to tell you the tip. + Build kaffeine like that: ./configure --without-xcb && make && make install) + +Q: + How can i contact you? +A: + IRC: #xine-vdpau on freenode + MAIL: http://lists.kafic.ba/mailman/listinfo/xine-vdpau + Eventually, nvnews. + +Q: + What information do I need if there's a problem? +A: + Run 'xine --verbose /path/to/a/working/sample' (or equivalent for your + chosen front end). You will probably be asked for this anyway, so it + helps to have it handy. |
