Description Nils Kneuper 2010-11-17 06:45:56 UTC
Ever since switching my rv670 based HD3850 to a Cypress based HD5850 I do get some image corruption when scaling my self recorded (using mencoder and later on avidemux for removing ads) analog TV data to view it at fullscreen (eg scaling to video from 704x428 to 1920x1200, keeping the aspect ratio) I got some "wrong colored stripes" in the bottom third. I will try to attach a short part of a video that does show the issue in a rather extreme fashion. You will see several red/pink as well as some (not as visible) greenish stripes if you are able to reproduce it. I assume that it somehow has to do with upscaling the noise in the video...

In general this does *only* happen using Xv. When selecting OpenGL as output this does not happen. It makes no difference if I select r600c or r600g as mesa potion. This issue was not happening with RV670 either. The issue does occur with both, kaffeine (using the Xine backend) as well as smplayer.

My software stack:
(vanilla) kernel 2.6.36 (amd64)
libdrm / mesa / xf86-video-ati from git master
Xorg server 1.9.x (will attach Xorg.0.log!) as of "gentoo linux amd64 unstable"

My hardware:
HD6850 1024MB
Phenom II X6
4096MB ram

Scaling this video to 1920x1200 fullscreen lets several stripes appear in the bottom third of the screen.
