Folks -
Can I ask someone to do some testing for me, please... I'm getting corruption on HD videos (specifically, iPlayer HD) since the April build of XBMC PVR, and I'm struggling to isolate the fault. So I'd like to see if anyone else is running a comparable system and whether they see the same - or whether it's personal!
I'm currently running the odk30 build of the XBMC PVR code.
System is a Revo R3600 ION on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid, Nvidia 270 drivers.
VDPAU is enabled, and HD videos play perfectly - *except* BBC videos from iPlayer, either streamed or, for debug purposes, cached and played locally. These exhibit a green corruption in the lower 5%-10% of the screen. Switch off VDPAU and the corruption disappears, although the video now stutters because the Revo doesn't have enough CPU grunt without GPU acceleration.
All other BBC iPlayer streams work fine - it's specifically HD streams. All other HD sources are fine, irrespective of CODEC, container, bit rate, etc. Indeed, I can re-encode the local cached file and it will play perfectly.
Does anyone have a similar system that they could perhaps test for me, please? Thanks in advance to any kindly victims/volunteers!
