I forgot to mention that the same thing happens without the patch, if mplayer is used with the Video Overlay port, i.e.
mplayer -vo xv:port=84 foo.avi where port 84 is the "Adaptor #1: "Intel(R) Video Overlay"" port. Also, this happens regardless of whether or not compiz is activated. Here is some info on my setup: Ubuntu 8.10 lspci | grep -i vga 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) -- video tearing with textured video on intel card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278318 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
