Hi,

has anyone got xine to play DVDs on freebsd? videolan can play DVDs on freebsd.. but the playback sucks even on a 500 mhz machine.

by now, xine runs pretty nicely on freebsd. however, unfortunately not quite as well as on linux

i am currently trying to find reasons for this lack of performance on freebsd compared to linux and am mostly stuck with the theory that agp support is not really the same as on linux. maybe someone who knows more about xfree, agp and freebsd will eventually comment on this or propose a solution. any input on this would be welcome...

even when using XvShm to display the video data xfree86 uses significantly more cpu power on freebsd than on linux (~15% on freebsd compared to ~1-3% on linux) which further indicates there's something wrong here.

Comments, hints, ideas very welcome,

Guenter
