@libgradev:

That's a bug for freedesktop.org

Yeah, I guessed as much! I was just hoping wsnipex had some super secret git ppa somewhere ;D

Silly question then: as AMD have abandoned XVBA what eactly are they planning to use in fglrx for video accel going forward?

No idea - i think the closed blob people sit somehwere crying. I would suggest them to implement VDPAU. Which btw. would get linux a big step forward concerning "one hw decoding" framework.

@ixbemcee: Please also remove pulseaudio and post a new log

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio libasound2-plugins

@fritsch
I "played" a litted bit with the settings and I switched:
"Adjust display refresh rate to match video" from "always on" to "off"
now the surge/judder in 24fps-movies disappears and viewing is ok!
(Do you have any explanation ?)


Later I removed also pulseaudio, but this was not the reason.
I tested furthermore with different windows manager, but this had also no effect on the problem.

nevertheless, thanks for your support

Can I ask somebody to review it? (I installed the full 3.10 Saucy as I had the same keyboard error.)

Despite your full blown compiz and pulseaudio installation ...

[ln17]

Pulseaudio is removed. (sudo apt-get remove --purge pulseaudio libasound2-plugins).
Do I need to remove compiz too?

[fritsch]

Rather post what is not working - would be better.

Currtent fernetmenta-master is crashing short after movie scraping... any ideas?

Upstream problem. Try to capture it in the debugger, that will show which function is causing it. I pinged some people that worked in the near code region over the last days.

I don't know if it's the same issue, but mine crashed last night when it failed to scrape a movie with TheMovieDB (the movie isn't in TheMovieDB, so it's no wonder, but still shouldn't cause a crash). I moved the movie folder that was causing problems somewhere on the drive that XBMC doesn't scan and rebooted and all was fine. It's been trying to scrape this movie on every boot for weeks, so it's a new issue.

I haven't reported it because I didn't have the time yesterday, but I'll do it if the problem persists. I should probably turn off update library on startup until it's fixed.

i had a hard lockup last night, vnc and ssh dead. had to reboot.

kern and xbmc log full of this "^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^"

so not much help to diagnose.

I can't believe I missed this thread so I am only getting around to trying this today. I've followed the guide and am testing it with my more complicated setup which is as follows:

AMD A6-3500 on an ASRock A75M-ITX connected to a HDMI Detective Plus (had issues while leaving XBMC running and shutting everything else down around it) then to a Denon AVR-991 then connected to Panasonic Plasma.
5.1 surround sound for the speaker setup and the Denon is capable of HD audio in bitstream/pass through fashion.

I have tested a few things such as 5.1 AC3/DTS and they all work but I have noticed a few quirks with TrueHD/DTS-HD (ma) movies. The movie stutters and there isn't any audio but when I disable passthrough the movie then works fine but the audio is coming across as 2.0 as confirmed in the DENON audio info screen. I've tried various settings as recommended on the first post with Audio clocks and still had no luck. I've posted the requested information below for troubleshooting and would appreciate any advice the team could provide. Thanks!

you don't have the right kernel pyrodex.
