Thank you for the great work on the vdpau-branch so far!
I have some questions though: Is it possible that the GPU is not fast enough to decode certain videos? I was trying to play a x264-encoded 1080p movie that spikes somewhere around 50MBit/s. The OSD doesn't show any dropped frames, but the video itself is choppy as if frames are being dropped (revision 17735). My GPU is a Geforce 8500GT with 512MB VRAM.
I noticed that in your screens the OSD reads "video: h264_vdpau". I only get "h264" (without the vpdau). Does that mean that it is using the wrong codec? CPU-load was about ~8% on both cores. Some parts from the logfile:
