Don't throw rocks if you live in a glass house, I guess...

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

Well some of the differences in opinion of course boil down to experience. When you've had a device that can play a certain video at 270% benchmark, and the same video plays under 100% on the touch pro, you notice it, while many people would think playback was smooth.

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

Exactly, I concur! But sometimes this boils down to other things as well. Can you actually visually see the difference between 270% and 100%? Or do you see this because a benchmark told you so? The reason I ask is because of computer games and FPS. You can not visually see the difference between 60 FPS and 100 FPS. A benchmark is required to tell you there is a difference. You can however, tell the difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS. No benchmark is required for that.

How are you watching FamilyGuy on core?
what site/method?

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

CorePlayer can't even get 100% playback speed on either my VGA XviDs or QVGA videos. DirectDraw and Qtv both work pretty poorly, though Qtv is a bit better.
It's better than my Mogul, sure, but it's still not fantastic.
It's really disappointing, since I thought HTC would've learned its lesson from the previous generation phones.

I've just loaded a couple of movies on my TP for playback. I used TCPMP v.72. I used Any Video Converter, and my files were converted to 320x240 customized .avi audio: mp3. Playback with NO issues, and the resolution looks great. Not 640x480 quality I get on my iPod Touch, but better than it was on my Mogul.

Benchmarked @ 124% during high speed action scenes (Wanted)

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

Yeah, I can see the difference, particularly on wide pans and action sequences. This is if I use Coreplayer with its cobbled-together Qtv support, TCPMP and Divx struggle.

There's just not enough headroom to deal with the challenging scenes, though in most other's it's smooth "enough". Basically it's like 20-22 fps rather than a rock solid 24. You do notice it.

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

It's really easy to notice that it's under 100% anytime the video pans. The pans are noticeably choppy. Zooms tend to be too, for that matter.
No benchmark is needed to see the lack of smoothness.

Re: Graphics Performance issues?
 

i really don't think it has anything to do with the lack of of drivers. it is qualcomm chipset. i an sure htc did not include the drives with ppc 6700 and it did video just fine with its pxa 270 416 mhz intel cpu.
