Hi,

I have the same issues, although I actually want to use XBMC.

Unfortunately, when using XBMC the video player behaves much like mplayer (first couple of secs it's fine, after that only 1 frame every 3-8 seconds), when using XBMC it does not log any errors whatsoever.

With mplayer I'm seeing the same errors as described here, also with the 906 version of the driver. Haven't tested that with XBMC just yet but will do so this evening, just wondering if there's anything I can do additionally to posting the error state (which is probably only generated by mplayer thus - not XBMC's media player) so I can do that as well.

Do note if I attach a monitor to the DVI it's well (Samsung 20" 1600x1200). If I attach my FHD Panasonic Plasma from 2009 this occurs (whether with DVI->HDMI cable or HDMI->HDMI - also noticed there's no audio whatsoever with the DVI->HDMI cable - there's 3 HDMI audio outputs, I presume these correspond with DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort (in that order)).

Also noticed there's some small commits after the 906. I can see if I can test with that, there's bound to be a git ebuild around for the driver somewhere (probably x11 overlay which I can snatch it from).

Thanks
