Eureka! I have discovered an even better work around for Mythbuntu MythTV. This new workaround not only addresses the video tearing problem, but also addresses the small amount of juddering that was present in the workaround identified in comment #23.
For Mythbuntu 11.04 MythTV see the following link: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37686#c47 For reduced video tearing for the Kubuntu 11.04 KDE desktop see the following link: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37686#c46 For a sample .mp4 file to test the video tearing problem see the following link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/600178/comments/38 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755841 Title: [sandybridge] video tearing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/755841/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
