Package: xcompmgr Version: 1.1.8-1 Followup-For: Bug #991551 X-Debbugs-Cc: pascal.mart...@gmx.fr
Dear Maintainer, A few more informations about this problem of tearing : - When I make multiple screenshots of the video (with tearing) going on, the image on all the screenshots is perfect. I made this test with the video https://youtu.be/gmHaa5pvpVc (4k vsync test 60fps) at WEBM 720p in MPV of course, not a web-browser. I made tests with that video too at 720p 1080p 30fps & 60fps. - I use MPV because it is the quicker and most efficient & useful for watching videos, e.g. coupled with SMPlayer. - When I watch the video above mentioned at 720p in VLC or Totem, without xcompmgr (when there is no tearing in MPV), some tearing does still appear, especially at the beginning of the video (when CPU workload is heavier). Remark that on my PC there is often slight video tearing in Firefox in all cases, with all desktops (CPU overload). - I bought my laptop in 2014, it is exactly a AMD E1-2100 APU with Radeon HD Graphics, 1600x900, 2xCPU 1GHz. It can't read up to 1080p videos, it does not produce tearing (in Gnome, Budgie or even Openbox) but sometimes skips images in some 1080p WEBM videos when they are quite fluid in the same MP4 video and ~same-sized. A 4K video is quite unthinkable in all cases (and useless on a PC). I didn't buy it for watching videos nor for image work (like Blender) anyway. All this to say that my PC is maybe too old & slow. But xcompmgr 1.1.7-1 worked quite finely. Maybe something delays the execution of xcompmgr that goes unnoticed on a quick computer (just an idea), like it happens with bloated software, or Java-based software that would take minutes to launch on my PC (if I had not given up using Java). So I hope this problem is just mine, but please check and maybe report upstream if necessary, you are more qualified than me to do that. Cordially, Pascal. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages xcompmgr depends on: ii libc6 2.31-13 ii libx11-6 2:1.7.1-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.5-1 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1.1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-2 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 xcompmgr recommends no packages. xcompmgr suggests no packages.
