I'd have to agree with Ivor's flag settings, I've found on my TC that i586 works better than C3 On 4/22/05, Ivor Hewitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 4/22/05, Neale Swinnerton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I've got a Epia ME6000 working well as a Myth frontend.

[mythtv-users] Playback of Transcoded (MPEG4) file on Epia ME6000
Hi, I've got a Epia ME6000 working well as a Myth frontend. I've got the XvMC playback so that watching Live TV or recordings is great (I've got a backend with 2 x Hauppauge DVB-T cards). The problem I have is that if I transcode a recording to MPEG4 then I can't play it back at more than about 14fps. Obviously the processor is working harder decoding with a MPEG4, but should I expect an Epia ME6000 to have enough grunt to handle this? I'm currently on CVS from 20/04/05, but I have the same problem with the 0.18 release. If I play the .nuv file directly on the machine with mplayer it plays back fine, so I suspect that it's maybe a config option. I've compiled both myth and mplayer with C[XX]FLAGS -march=c3 -Os -fomit-frame-pointer I've tried all combinations of real-time priority, audio/video as timebase etc. So -> Anyone have any experience with getting a ME6000 to playback a transcoded file? CPU is maxed out and I get this is the frontend.log 2005-04-22 11:53:26.861 prebuffering pause 2005-04-22 11:53:26.862 waiting for prebuffer... 0 2005-04-22 11:53:27.025 waiting for prebuffer... 1 2005-04-22 11:53:27.205 waiting for prebuffer... 2 2005-04-22 11:53:27.385 waiting for prebuffer... 3 2005-04-22 11:53:27.470 A/V diverged by -3.33995 frames, dropping frame to keep audio in sync 2005-04-22 11:53:27.471 A/V diverged by -3.4362 frames, dropping frame to keep audio in sync 2005-04-22 11:53:27.472 A/V diverged by -3.26465 frames, dropping frame to keep audio in sync 2005-04-22 11:53:27.590 A/V diverged by -3.1004 frames, dropping frame to keep audio in sync 2005-04-22 11:53:27.591 A/V diverged by -3.00655 frames, dropping frame to keep audio in sync 'video_output' mean = '75874.29', std. dev. = '183007.25', fps = '13.18' thanks Neale. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
