Every few seconds there will be a frame that takes a little longer than average to decode, and unless the player can all the CPU time it wants, there will be skips. The solution is to buffer a few decoded frames somewhere, preferably in video memory. That will give you the extra time to decode the difficult frames, and then catch up with some easy ones. If the scheduler can be tweaked so even mplayer does the right thing, that's good. It could solve other problems more difficult to address in the application. -- M?ns Rullg?rd mru@users.sf.net - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
