It is hard to tell what's happening here without a better log. You also didn't mention if you're using the Open Source driver or the AMD proprietary one. In any case, that sounds to be a bug with the hardware decoding. You may try to force libVLC to not use VDPAU for decoding. Take a look at Kaffeine's README.md for further details. Take a look at "Remote Access and Kaffeine" section. (In reply to Mauro Carvalho Chehab from comment #1) > It is hard to tell what's happening here without a better log.

Btw, you should take a look on BZ#376893 Mauro, Thanks for you help on this. I have checked my receiver with Kaffeine on another Ubuntu system, and it works fine for both standard and hi-def signals. I also found out that the system that's giving me problems with Kaffeine also has trouble playing DVD's with other software. So, I don't think the problem is with Kaffeine, but with my video drivers. Sorry to take up your time, and thanks again. Jeff |
