Description:

Kaffeine DVB-S performance problems.
Watching any DVB-S channel only works
with default window size. Maximizing
the window or using full screen mode
makes TV watching impossible. You will
only see block graphics and the sound
skips and then mutes "forever".
This never happened with Kubuntu.

Additional info:
* with different Kubuntu versions this never happened
* using the latest package versions
* using nouveau Xorg driver
* no hardware acceleration
* using KDE without "eye candy" effects
* 2.2 GHz dual core CPU "Intel Core 2 Duo T7500"
* 4 GB RAM
* 64 bit operating system
* NVIDIA G84M (GeForce 8600M GT)
* laptop computer
* 1920x1200 display resolution

$ kaffeine

vo_vdpau: using 3 output surfaces of size 1920x1200 for display queue
vo_vdpau: this hardware doesn't support h264.
vo_vdpau: this hardware doesn't support vc1.
vo_vdpau: this hardware doesn't support mpeg1/2.

Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  Please report upstream - if there's one, I think the project is unmaintained.

"latest packaged version" doesn't tell us much, as it can change at any time. Please include actual package versions next time.

Reassigning to BaSh, as he's the one who moved it to Community and is the KDE maintainer.

This project seems to be dead, last release we over 3 years ago and is marked as inactive as of last Dec. Maybe it should just be dropped to the AUR if it's not working right?
