Gui smoother then *ever*, but only when dvd playing!? (1 Viewer)

[ErikLarsson]

Ok here is a wierd one. The Gui have always been not-that-fluid, but nothing to be annoyed about.

But testing the RC1 i discovered that when playing DVD and for instance pressing the Green Button (mce remote) so dvd plays in small window, animations on the main menu are super smooth. So smooth i haven't seen them that smooth *ever*.

Playing other media such as xvid doesn't produce this.

Have discovered the same thing here too! Someone who´s got an explanation?

Are you also using Dscaler as DVD playback codec?

Yes, but the effect is the same even if i´m using an PDVD or WINDVD codec. Have tried with two different GPU:s, one nVidia MX200 32mb and one ATI X1150 (integrated) with 128 mb amount of memory (noone of theese gpu:s has hardware support for DirectX 9c). All files with MPEG2 encoding has this effect on the gui. Enabling/disabling dxva doesnt matter either.
