I have a laptop with a SiS630 chipset and use XFree86 4.1 (sis driver with the vesafb hack). When I play a dvd in windowed mode (720x576) with xine and I use XVideo the cpu(1.1Ghz P3) is utilized at 66% while playing with XShm the cpu is utilized only at 31% ! (the same with mplayer)
This effect is the same at all colordepths (16bpp and 24bpp). I thought Xv should take the strain off the cpu a bit... Anyone has an idea what may cause the problem ? Thanks, -Andre. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
