On Ubuntu 10.04 I experience choppy video playback.
I am running Mplayer and have an Nvidia GeForce 9800 GTX+ video card. I have already installed the libvdpau1
library. I don't know if hardware acceleration is enabled on my video card or if it is supported.
Can anyone provide suggestions on how to decrease the choppiness?
Here is my xorg.conf
file:
