Sorry, I need to slow down my thought process when reading. Obviously, the amdcccle tool is the Catalyst Control. The only other idea i can suggest is to use the vlc plugin. I do have better results using vlc, instead of mplayer. I'm assuming you do have at least 2.2 ghz dual core processor, that's the only other thing I can think of that could effect frame rate.

Paul, I use the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 and like you, install the fglrx drivers. When you downloaded the driver from AMD, you should have also gotten the Catalyst Control Center automatically. It is the ATI graphics card control software and one of the display options is for "tear free" to reduce tearing. One difference between your system and mine is I'm running Xubuntu 11.10, not Ubuntu (I can't stand Unity). I get to the Catalyst Control Center under "Settings Manager". I can't remember what the Ubuntu equivalent of that might be, but it should be somewhere.

I recently upgraded my freevo box to a new motherboard that uses the AMD Radeon HD 6410D chipset. The only way I could get it to work was with the proprietary fglrx driver (the open source driver requires KMS which is a sure-fire way of crashing the kernel). But now I have the choice between 'tearing' of video and a very low framerate (when I check the no tearing option in the amdcccle tool). Does anyone know what is the right way of getting this video chipset to deliver the promised performance?
