Description Maciej Pilichowski 2008-01-08 15:05:56 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When I use CPU dynamic policy due to all slow downs and speed ups the playback is not fluent -- the screen from time to time flashes.

Setting fixed CPU frequency solves the problem.

So the wish is exactly this -- instead of manual switching to fixed CPU freq. and then back to dynamic policy (I use kpowersave), please do this automatically in Kaffeine.

This bug is too old, for a version < 1.3. Closing it, as the latest version is 2.0.1, and lots of things changed since version 1.2.x, including the usage of VLC as video display backend, support for DVB-T2 and ISDB-T via libVLC, etc.

You may check on the upstream version and see if the bug was solved. The README file contains instructions about how to compile it. You can find it at our git repository:

If you find similar issues with version 2.0.1, please re-open.
