I also notice watching video with vdpau consumes abnormally high cpu usage. For the same video, in Natty the cpu usage using mplayer2 with vdpau (Nvidia295.20) is somewhere between 5 to 15%, in Precise it is around 50% even though vdpau is enabled (I know it is enabled aside from terminal output because it works in gnome shell, see below)
But I am not sure if this is just a Nvidia driver bug because cpu usage drops drastically when I switched to gnome-shell (even though still a few percentage over Natty with Nvidia295.20) I will file a separate bug if necessary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982710 Title: [regression] Nvidia 295.40 driver is extremely slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/982710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
