The only thing compilled for Xvmc is Xine on my EPIA M10K box. XFree86-4.4-libviaXvMC-0.11.3-patch Mplayer worked out of the box for me. One thing: I don't use this box for recording. I use another, more powerfull one. It's connected with a nfsshare over the network, end plays recorded programs without hesitating.
While running a DVD using XINE, top shows me the following CPU 16,6 % 18,2 Sys I have 512 MB ram inside. Playing recorder video would end somewhere up to 70% at 80% CPU usage Some specs Fedora Core 2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# uname -r 2.6.8.1-epia1 Customized Kernel Xorg Release Date: 18 December 2003 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.7 Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.21-14.ELsmp i686 [ELF] Current Operating System: Linux Oracske 2.6.8.1-epia1 #3 Thu Sep 16 12:57:01 CE$Build Date: 07 May 2004 Build Host: tweety.build.redhat.com Xorg has been updated for Xvmc I use a 120 GB harddisk from a concurent brand.
