Hi,
This is my first post; please be gentle.
Platform
------------------------------------------
Zotac ionitx n330 4GB Ram
Ubuntu : 10.04 x86_64 2.6.32-24-generic
XBMC : 1:9.11-lucid3 [installed as per instructions at link http://bit.ly/99bGte ]
nvidia : 256.53 [downloaded and installed from nvidia website]
Connected to Samsung 46" led via Hdmi cable.
Steps already taken
------------------------------------------
installed vdpau1
set vram to 512mb in bios
followed http://bit.ly/cJT7j4 to get rid of supposedly stutter, but it didn't make any difference
Issue?
------------------------------------------
vdpau works as I can play 8 gig files and pressing 'o' while playing HD content shows vdpau.
The issue is that all videos (700mb - 8gig) start out OK. Pressing 'o' while playing video shows errors (on the right bottom of diagnostic report) get to 0% in a few seconds. But after a few minutes the playback becomes slow. The errors then start fluctuating from 5-50%.
At times XBMC crashes which somehow removes taskbars (top and bottom bars) from the desktop. `service gdm restart` fixes desktop and then I can restart xbmc to replicate my issue again.

xorg.conf is at : http://pastebin.com/C6YQtV51
Thanks in advance.
