Hi,
Just to give additional info to any would-be bug-squasher : So... been grappling with this problem the last couple of days and I may have found the problem. It seems to be something to do with my dual-monitor setup. Simply, if I remove my 2nd monitor from the X-server (via the nVidia drivers), the tearing goes away. The moment I re-enable it, the tearing comes back. This is independent of whether I had compiz-effects on or off. I.e. : - When I disable compiz but still have two monitors active, videos still screen-tears). - Same behaviour in XCFE and IceWM too (and all scenarios where compiz/composites have been disabled) - None of the other fixes work (e.g, de-interlacing, output to OpenGL, sync-to-vblank, etc...) Thus, my earlier suggestion about it being something to do with Fedora's "special" livna drivers is wrong. So far, only turning on/off that 2nd monitor works. Perhaps... can any of the prior fellow bug-reporters confirm this please? Did they have this problem with single or dual-monitor setups? Also, for those not aware, there is an Ubuntu-Forums thread linked to this bug : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5866224 HTH -- compiz+nvidia: tearing in xvideo (totem/mplayer/VLC/XINE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151674 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
