I think the hardware (HD4290 (UVD2) with AMD Sempron 140) is not enough powerfull for this file. I will try with a AMD Athlon II X4 610e.
Today, I tried with an AMD Athlon II X2 245e.
I get the sound but no video (display is still on xbmc file view)
Is something wrong or just the hardware can't decode this file ?
HD4290 is UVD2. Have you an idea why I don't have h264 /vc1 accel ?
Nope, sorry - I would have told it directly, but you are not missing any obvious packages.
Wanna ask #dri-devel people for that
i have also audio-drops @ 24p
When I switch to 50/60Hz, I have no audio-drops...but no 24p :/
Does it matter whether 24p or 50Hz?
Watch some movies and see for yourself :-)
Best for you is, what you find best and works out for you.
Technically it makes a lot difference.

I am not sure the HD4290 is the reason

I asked radeon developpers and they are waiting to be allowed (by AMD ?) to release (work on ?) code for UVD2.
The recent rc7+ 0.1 kernel is too unstable for me. Same bugs as with the early rc6 versions.
Audio player crashes XBMC after 10min and screen disco.
Reverting back to rc6+ 0.7
Okay. Thanks for the logfiles.
The recent rc7+ 0.1 kernel...
xbmc seems to work, but I cannot use skype as the microphone device has disappeared!
Oibaf is now ready for Saucy.
If someone has time, please verify the howto to work completely on Saucy and I will change the relevant steps, that you will find out.
I am sadly notoriously short on time and cannot test this.
