It's hard to explain but it's like when a picture was moving it was like a flashing tearing effect. I tried the same video with ccc on and off and found when ccc was loaded the problem was gone but when it was disabled it was causing problems.
So now I just use sleep mode so when I wake the pc up ixbmc is loaded.
This is another xbmc bug becasue if you launch xbmc by using a mouse it does not minimise to a window when the ccc is loaded. Try it I bet it does not minimise. It's only when u load it from the start menu it happens. It must load program's differently from a mouse to a startup folder.
I hoped it was going to be fixed in this version but I guess not.
There are about 3 serious bugs with xbmc which have been going on for years but they never seem to want to fix them. They should post a sticky for them problems if it can not be fixed within xbmc if its not a xbmc problem and could have workarounds for this eg the juddering video problem when a pc has been on a long time or in standby which is directx related and only a xbmc reset will fix it. The workaround was a script that would reset xbmc on wake up.
Things like that.
Thanks for the heads up, that doesn't sound good (the tearing video). Sleep creates its own issues so I choose not to use it (I just shut down between uses).
Looks like I might have to go back to the Intel onboard graphics if I start to experience this pulsing video problem with the Radeon, without catalyst control center loaded.
