I have a 2009 17" MacBook Pro with the dual NVIDA GeForce graphic processors, 9400M and 9600M GT. When I use the 9400M to play a DVD movie using XBMC, I noticed that the framerate consistently drops to around ~10 fps. When I switch to using the 9600M GT the framerate stays at around 24. I am baffled by this problem as I also have a 2009 MacMini with the NVIDA GeForce 9400 graphic processor and when I play a DVD movie using XBMC, the framerate stays around 24.
What is even more strange is if I play the same DVD movie on the MacBook Pro with the OS X DVD player (outside XBMC) using the 9400M graphics processor the fps stays around 24.
Of course, the effect of when the fps drops to around 10 the video gets choppy and the audio and video get out of sync.
Is there a XBMC system setting that I need to tweak in order to be able to use the 9400M on the MacBook Pro?
