Firstly, there is massive clock drift. The system clock seems to run too slow, losing several hours a day. Secondly, I can't seem to play any video on it. Both mplayer and xine lose 3-5 frames every 45 seconds or so. Xine shows this semi-helpful output: -- snip -- 200 frames delivered, 0 frames skipped, 0 frames discarded audio_out: adjusting master clock 1093958 -> 1105016 video_out : throwing away image with pts 1096023 because it's too old (diff : 95 16 > 1501). video_out : throwing away image with pts 1099026 because it's too old (diff : 65 13 > 1501). video_out : throwing away image with pts 1102029 because it's too old (diff : 35 10 > 1501). 200 frames delivered, 0 frames skipped, 3 frames discarded -- snip -- The line about 'adjusting master clock' would seem to indicate that there is some disparity with the timing that is causing frames to be dropped. This is not a problem with the player, since both mplayer and xine play the same files on a slower system just fine. I've disabled power management & SpeedStep in the BIOS, to no avail. Does anyone have a clue what's wrong here?
