No, just FLV (even though I also get very bad quality with RealVideo files -- I should probably file another bug for this one), I tested with MPEG-2 and DivX. I had no problem watching MPEG-2 and DivX at maximum quality. The trouble is with the codec, I think. ** Attachment added: xorg.conf

Apparently, ffmpeg does the job of decoding FLVs. ffmpeg is open-source so problems can be fixed. I will reassign this bug to ffmpeg now. ** Changed in: ffmpeg (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gstreamer0.10 = ffmpeg -- Bad quality in FLV playback https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197842 You received

Public bug reported: While watching the exact same FLV (FLash Video) file on Ubuntu Linux 7.10 (with all updates) and on Microsoft Windows 2000, I realized that, unfortunately, the playback quality was far lower in Ubuntu (pixelization effect), and playback was jaggy (lots of short and

OK, I've installed the packages you gave me, then I did a dpkg- reconfigure xserver-xorg, and I restarted the computer. Thing is, when I switch to 800x600, it works fine, but when I switch to 640x480, the image gets distorted again, although it isn't moved. In that precise case, I've made a

Henry, I assume you're kinda new to linux, so I'll keep this simple. First, configure your firewall -- that is, you just have to start it the first time, that'll be ok. After you've done that, open a terminal window, and paste the following in it (without the quotes): gksudo gedit

not a duplicate of 48289: my image is not just moved a bit to the left, it is also very distorted on the X-axis. I will soon attach a photo demonstrating it. But the bug #48289 probably has the same problem, X not setting correct H/V Modeline parameters. But my laptop screen worked just fine with

It seems to work after update to displayconfig-gtk-0.3, even though i had to *manually* set the Dell-1024x768 laptop display panel. Couldn't that be autodetected, at least on this series of laptops? (the autodetect button gave me the PlugPlay option, which only had 640x480) Thanks in advance!

I miscalculated the distance the image is moved to the left: it's not 2 inches but rather 1/2 an inch. I should have also mentioned that OpenGL works even with the 'distorted image' state of my screen. Here's my xorg.conf. ** Attachment added: xorg.conf

This whole bug is a race condition. The problem occurs when the computer does not have the time to setup its network interfaces, and the /etc/firestarter/firestarter.sh script is run during that period. I've got a (very) temporary solution (it worked for me) : 32,42c32,42 if [ $MASK = -a
