Thanks Daniel, your compiz and unity updates in your PPA have much improved the tearing on playback on a system I have here. This system displays from integrated video on its i7-2630QM (sandy bridge) CPU. Previously I've seen really bad tearing while playing back h264/mp4 at 30 fps with vlc and mplayer (in various modes) within the Unity desktop.
Now if only I could get directfb to stop tearing on this system ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755841 Title: [sandybridge] Graphics tearing when playing video To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/755841/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
