Hi, I have an Ion based motherboard running on Ubuntu 10.04 right now, after various of problems facing Ubuntu and hardware compatibility, I finally come to point that I play my media files, but I noticed that my 1080p files will not play properly, giving only 8-12fps and 1.6MBits/s of data even with VDPAU turned on! when I view the playback information, it says FF-H264 only, when I watched some youtube videos, it shows as FF-H264_VDPAU, so I highly doubt that my VDPAU is actually in use.
However, I do not know where it went wrong that it doesn't play using VDPAU. I installed the NVIDIA Driver through System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, I'm not sure if this has an effect, but the main reason i didn't install using repository is that there is no latest commands or the ppa no matter how I search for the 10.04 version, if anyone could give me a heads up it would be much appreciated! Thanks!
