The CompizConfig solution works great in 10.4. I set [X] Sync to VBlank, and Refresh Rate=60 Hz in ccsm, and the problem goes away. It even persists across reboots. (I have run with compiz disabled for a long time, because of some compatibility issue, but this is enough to make me switch it on for video playback.)
I did not find this bug when I was frantically troubleshooting this issue a few months ago. I think the solution should be put on a wiki page as a temporary measure, to make it easier to find. I don't have time to put it there now, maybe later. Thanks for the fix, it made my day! -- compiz+nvidia: tearing in xvideo (totem/mplayer/VLC/XINE) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151674 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
