[Bug 292026] New: oprofile confirms slow xvideo with x11-video-nvidia and GeForce FX 5200
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=292026 Summary: oprofile confirms slow xvideo with x11-video-nvidia and GeForce FX 5200 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: ensonic@sonicpulse.de QAContact: sndirsch@novell.com Found By: --- I use XGL with x11-video-nvidia-1.0.9631-0.1. When I watch a video using xvideo output I can't watch it fullscreen. I run graphics at 1920x1200. Thsi happends regardless of the player (totem on gstreamer/mplayer). I run oprofile and this is what I get: samples % image name app name symbol name 81916607 85.7412 libGLcore.so.1.0.9631 libGLcore.so.1.0.9631 (no symbols) 3312559 3.4672 libgstflumpeg4videodec.so libgstflumpeg4videodec.so (no symbols) 2527801 2.6458 no-vmlinux no-vmlinux (no symbols) 1969886 2.0619 libasound.so.2.0.0 libasound.so.2.0.0 (no symbols) 1426707 1.4933 libc-2.5.so libc-2.5.so memcpy 931036 0.9745 libgstflump3dec.so libgstflump3dec.so (no symbols) 371625 0.3890 Xgl Xgl (no symbols) Some Xorg developers said that I quite likely hit a slow path in my GL lib, which the profile seems to confirm. Now I wonder how I could help to fix this. Can I provide any additional information? Can I get debug symbols or even sources for x11-video-nvidia-1.0.9631-0.1? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I was also talking to Lonni J Friedmann from nvidea and also tried the latest drivers from nvidea. The issue is the xvideo emulation of XGL. That is slow on my card. The XGL team could look what code mplayer -vo gl (or -vo gl2) uses, as this is fast. It could be stuff like texturesize that hit a limmit of my relative low-end card. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In our most recent attempt, we were not successful in reproducing the problem using similar hardware; I had smooth playback using mplayer -vo xv -fs at 1920x1200. But in light of the fact that this may be XGL related, we will have to retest with XGL enabled.

Can we assign this to the XGL team. I was also talking to Lonni J Friedmann from nvidea and also tried the latest drivers from nvidea. The issue is the xvideo emulation of XGL. That is slow on my card. The XGL team could look what code mplayer -vo gl (or -vo gl2) uses, as this is fast. It could be stuff like texturesize that hit a limmit of my relative low-end card.
You didn't state your card so far. Also, the texture size only limits the maximum image size to be displayed, not the the scaled size. So you would hit the slow path already without resizing it fullscreen. Can you try 'xine -V opengl', and select the fragment program version there? That's the code I used in Xgl. Or do you have a pre-5600 card? The GeForce 4 series and below don't support fragment programs, the GeForce 5xxx hit slow paths. That is a FAQ: http://en.opensuse.org/Xgl mplayer has more sophisticated rendering modes nowadays. Never had time to port them back to xine and/or Xgl. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I haven't seen this when I've installed XGL almost a year ago. Would be great if the xv code could be updated. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Fragment shaders are the most obvious ones, but there are others. Code for this is available in mplayer, and the Author already allowed me to relicense it. It "just" has to be done, and that takes time. There is already an open bug for that. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 152140 *** https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=152140 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The proper long term solution for efficient video playback is to use something like the video interface that compiz provides. That will provide the most efficient video playback possible on a composited desktop. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Not as good as with mplayers -vo gl unfortunately. cpu is maxed and there are frames dropped.

Atleast with the upgrade to opensuse 10.3 and compiz-fusion everything is fine. Videoplayback performance is top. From my pov this can be closed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
