Performance in Leaked Rom (Specifically Video/3D)

[brozono]

I have been playing around with the Sprint leaked Rom for a couple of days now and want to poll others on their experience with the Performance.

I was hoping that this update would improve Video Playback and possibly 3D Graphics. While things seem to be snappier (could be placebo effect) and the Power is definitely better, I can do Push Mail and actually last the whole day where before I was SOL by 3:00 PM.

Video:

I have used both TCPMP and the retail Core Player as well as WMP. If anything I see a drop in performance over the stock shipped rom. I have a couple of test clips which I used to be able to benchmark at around 80% and now are around 75%. I also recently converted some DVDs for my wife to watch on her Ipod Touch and was hoping that the Sprint Touch could handle them at QVGA over HVGA and dropping the average bit rate down to 850Kbps. No luck. I have to drop the average bit rate to 700Kbps to stop dropping frames, but then I get encoding artifacts. WMP could barely touch the DVD encoding and the other test clips were just as bad.

Anyone else know of any improvements. Note, I already use Raw Buffer settings.


Graphics:

I tried to do some benchmarking, but the could not find any OpenGL or D3DM benchmarks that would even start. Any suggestion here?

That's because the leaked rom doesn't include any fixes for video or 3D performance. That woudl require a license by Qualcomm and HTC to be released, which isn't going to officially happen.
