You can help upstream best, when you file bugs at freedesktop.org and include dmesg output, problem description and howto reproduce.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

My recent dither xrandr setting seems to have helped quite a bit. I do notice when I freshly start a session it takes about 2-3 seconds before it calms down into the proper levels but never has a problem again. Any advice you can give to direct the proper information to the proper people either xbmc, x, kernel, or mesa so it could potentially help resolve this down the road?

Hello,
As I see everything works nicely with one exception. When I open a M2TS 1920x1080 video file, the first 2-3 seonds of the video drops frames always, like I would not have buffer. After 3 seconds everything is played perfectly. Is this normal?

wondering if the mpeg-2 hanging problem should be reposted in Drivers/Gallium/r600 rather than Drivers/DRI/R600, the latter seems to have few new bug posts and replies from AMD devs.

So is mpeg-2 vdpau decoding working on any radeon versions? I know it's not on my 4550, and apparently it's not working on universam's 6450(which I was looking at getting before reading that).
I can't tell from this thread if it's working on most newer radeon versions and just not on the few who are talking, or if it's not working for anyone and just most people don't deal with mpeg-2(I only have to deal with it because that's what broadcast OTA TV is)?
If I can pickup a card that works for cheap on sale l would like to, appreciate any confirmations/responses
