Hi Joost, A few questions:
- What poll period are you using? - What other services are being monitored by Monit? - Does the video tear only occur when monitoring the video playback, or does it also happen time if Monit is running, but not monitoring the video playback process? - Can you produce a top output sorted by CPU usage when Monit is running and when it is not? ( http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/158584/change-tops-sorting-back-to-cpu ) - How are you starting the process and monitoring? Is it being started from another process? - Can you share your monit config (monitrc and config for monitoring Compton?
