Should Dragging Video Windows be so sluggish?
« on: October 19, 2010, 01:00:12 AM »
I put the latest install of MorphOS on my eMac, and I've noticed that when I'm playing a video and try to resize the window, that my whole system begins to lag until I stop resizing the window. It's as if I'm trying to play videos on a 500Mhz AMD system with 128Mb or RAM.

And yes I've tried high and low quality videos, the results are always the same.

1.25Ghz at that. I've got crappy PC machines that can do better than that, and they are not near as fast.

Thankx Fab: Went Retro and disable Enhanced Mode, now things seem a bit  better with Mplayer, though I'm not quite sure how exactly to get my resolution to 800x600. Screen Prefs don't work quite like they do on a real Amiga and when ever I try to change the resolution the screen flickers, but everything looks the same...
