choose options/preferences/video/output driver/vdpau and you are away
xbmc has also always worked for me for 1080p
also just tested a new one called umplayer which is a fork from smplayer it too works brilliantly for 1080p same settings as smplayer with vdpau ( options/preferences/video/output driver/vdpau)
first saw it mentioned here thank you beew
install UMPlayer using the following commands:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install umplayer
A few readers have reported that using Mplayer from the Ubuntu official repositories UMPlayer doesn't work so you may want to install the latest MPlayer from the MPlayer daily builds PPA (this PPA is even linked in the MPlayer download page). Add it and upgrade MPlayer using the following commands:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:motumedia/mplayer-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
