XBMCbuntu Tearing or Studder, I get to choose which :-( Help me fix it!
#1
All,

I spent the last two days trying to fix the tearing and studdering when using XBMCbuntu.

Hardware:
- Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4Ghz Dual Core
- Asus Nvidia 620 2GB Videocard
- P5W-DH Motherboard

TV is KDL-46V4100
I'll get the exact model later but the TV is a Sony from 2007/2008 with 60Hz max.

My Playstation 3 plays all of my videos with clean motion on this same TV but cannot seem to get that with the XBMC system.

What I have done so far:
- Updated to latest Nvidia drivers
- Disabled compiz (Composite Environment)
- Ensured vsync was clicked for Nvidia GPU
- Ensured hardware Nvidia vdpau Enabled (tried with and without actually)
- Tried sycning display with playback speed (tried with/without)
- Enabled vsync to blank in XBMC and set it to Always enabled. This causes stuttering but fixes the tearing
- Later tried enabling compiz and manually setting refresh rate to 120hz and changed then window mode

Content
- I've been trying to play things mostly with 24fps
- Some things with a odd frame rate like 25fps (Like Pacific Rim Trailer) or some Dr Who episodes. Again the PS3 plays these perfectly.

Is there anything else I can do to fix this? If not I'm probably giving up on XBMC.
