Ati HD2400 video tearing

hello,
I bought myself a new laptop, an asus a8sr, I got about everything working with it, I just have an incredibly annoying problem:
with whatever driver I am using (fglrx, radeon, radeonhd, and vesa) whatever distribution (I tried Kubuntu, arch and gentoo), whatever different versions of xorg (1.3.0 and 1.4.0.90), various different xorg.conf configurations, I get incredibly disturbing (but discrete) horizontal tearing while watching videos (especially when there is a lot of movement). I though it was a hardware related issue at first, so I reinstalled vista to check if I would get the same thing, but I experienced no such thing under vista.
I don't guess I am the first to get that, so if anyone has found a solution, please post it. Considering there is no way I am going to use vista, I need to get that working fine, because without that my computer is as good as trash.
Thank you in advance.

Hmm, do you guys actually make your HD2400 run games at all? I've had constant problems with it on my laptop, can't run WoW decently (for example), no textures are rendered and such, I've tried the same on Ubuntu, best I got to was making it display stuff normally ( altough not the text )at some low 5 FPS making it unplayable.
I'm using the fglrx drivers, since on open source ones I can't get direct rendering working, and they have about 700 FPS on glxgears where these current ones have 3.5k (that's on normal size of glxgears). That's all quite bad considering I can get to 10k FPS on my desktop using a 7600 nvidia, with pretty much the same RAM and processor.
Here's my xorg.conf - note that some devices/screens aren't used, they are just left out from my previous attempts at using the open source driver.

Fix for video tearing ATI Radeon HD 4200 using Catalyst Driver??

Hey guys, as the title asks, is there a fix for pretty serious video tearing that I am experiencing on my ATI Radeon HD 4200 video card? I'm using the proprietary driver (catalyst, built from AUR) and would prefer to use that one or, if need be, radeonhd driver as I need HDMI sound output.
Below is my xorg.conf.
Many many thanks in advance to anyone who may have some ideas/experience with this.

FIXED - Bad file from ATI Radeon - Use windows/ hp drivers- Cat control center not updated nor used,? thats why I could not see/ control dual monitors. This 4200 series is probaly on its way out.
I had to pay to get it fixed. Do NOT Update using the update from ATI Readeon? It did not work for me.
Hope that might help someone.

Video tearing on iMac (Late 2006)

Hi,
My iMac has been suffering from what i think is video-tearing and horrible refreshrate for a week now. I'm thinking hardware problems.
The video-tearing mainly comes up when the screensaver goes on but it's still annoying.
The refreshrate is always bad.
I have the iMac(late 2006) 2.16GHz with 2GB ram and the ATI Radeon X1600 with 128MB VRAM.
What to do?

Same Model, same problem here. Much worse i think, picture cuts in half, fonts break. Happened after some update back in March. I was away for some time not using it but now few updates later still no resolution, Display looks fine in XP (bootcamp)

Video tearing on my 24" iMac

I have been having an issue with my 24" iMac for the past couple of months and I was wondering if you have heard of this issue before. I am getting what I guess would be described as video tearing. On occasion, and with no obvious pattern to it, I will get a weird horizontal line of noise that goes across just a certain open window, not the entire screen. I have been able to take screenshots of this, but I don't think I can post those in the discussions.
Anyhow, it happens in Firefox, Word, Mail, etc. There does not seem to be any program that is immune to this issue, and it doesn't happen all the time. It appears to be quite random.
I have checked the Apple Support site and the only thing I found were some old discussions about a tearing issue with previous generation iMacs. If I remember correctly, they were pretty old iMacs. Nothing about this issue in the recent past.
The video tearing sometimes goes away if I scroll up/down the window, and sometimes it doesn't. Though, more often than not, it goes away by scrolling.
My machine is coming up on a year old next month, so if I need to use my warranty, I need to do it soon.
Have you heard about this issue at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
My system specs are as follows:
24" Intel iMac purchased 9/06
2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
I have not upgraded the hardware in anyway.
Thanks again for your help!

Hello lizardsrdizzy!
Did this video tearing issue for sure just start happening, or did you just notice it for the first time? I ask only because this sounds like the known Apple/ATI issue that many of us with ATI video cards have had, but only eventually noticed.
HOWEVER, since you do NOT have an ATI video card, I'd definitely recommend you need to pursue this flaw immediately within warranty/AppleCare.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86823
I strongly recommend adding AppleCare to maintain the value of your iMac, either for your own use, or for eventual resale. Considering the original cost of your setup and the still rather high cost of replacing a 24-inch display, at full cost AppleCare will be a bargain and that cost will either be fully returned to you the first time you need to use it, or when you resell your iMac. Discounted it's available from Amazon and various Mac sellers.
If you need to get a bigger bargain, occasionally they show up, but give yourself time to find one on eBay, and refer to my recent post here:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4980575#4980575
Best of luck, and please return to let us know the resolution of the matter.

Video tearing using catalyst 8.4 and a Radeon HD 3600

Hi,
I'm experiencing very annoying video tearing problems using my new device (especially during fast movements, travelings...). The problem doesn't seem to affect 3D games, but I don't play a lot.
My googling helped me find out this had something to do with vsync, but I don't understand much all about this... I've tried several options for my xorg.conf , nothing seems to change my problem. XVideo is working according to xvinfo.
I've noticed a strange thing using the catalyst control center. I have a LCD screen, its refresh rate is 60Hz ; this appears correctly in the "Display Manager" of amdcccle, but just below, there's a "Digital Screen" section where I can see 85 Hz. May this be related ?
What are exactly the xorg.conf options that I should use ?
Thanks for helping me !

That might be a driver problem, but it was supposed to be fixed in 8.4.
Anyways try mine:

[SOLVED]Radeon R9 280x Glamor problems (video tearing, error messages)

When switching from Catalyst to xf86-video-ati, a few problems occurred.
I tried to enable EXA rendering by setting the option in my Xorg.conf, but I got the message that EXA isn't supported on my card and that Glamor will be used. I'm fine with using Glamor, but using it gives me some weird problems. For instance, when I play a video, the top 5% of the screen has horizontal tearing, as explained in this bug report: https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/sh … i?id=78717
It seems unfortunately that there is no way to solve the video tearing problem with Glamor. I tried playing my videos with mpv and vlc and with different video output options (xv, gl-hq, gl, vdpau), but they all gave horizontal tearing in the top 5% of the screen.
When playing a video or running glxgears, I get the following error messages:
radeon: Failed to allocate a buffer:
radeon: size : 0 bytes
radeon: alignment : 4096 bytes
radeon: domains : 4
And this goes on and on when running the program.
There are also messages appearing in dmesg when those problems occur:
[ 1587.499789] [drm:radeon_gem_object_create] *ERROR* Failed to allocate GEM object (0, 6, 4096, -22)
[ 1587.516597] [TTM] Illegal buffer object size
[ 1587.516606] [TTM] Illegal buffer object size
My full xorg.log:
http://pastebin.com/Jpi3wF7H
I understand that solving tearing is not a priority now with Glamor, but at least I want to get rid of the error messages. Any ideas?
lspci reports my card as:
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Tahiti XT [Radeon HD 7970/8970 OEM / R9 280X]
The card that I use is this one http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentatio … 2022&lid=1 , the SAPPHIRE DUAL-X R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 OC

Sorry for the late reply, but I happen to have recently built a similar setup (Arch Linux + Radeon R9 280) and I'm also getting the "Failed to allocate a buffer" (of size 0) messages whenever I run something that seems to use the radeonsi driver (i.e. games, 3D, shaders...). However, I do not have the video tearing issue, and I don't get the messages when playing a video either (well, at least not with VLC, which is the only software I've tried for this). I can't really help you more with the video tearing issue, but I filed a specific bug report for the "Failed to allocate a buffer" messages here :
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82783
Thanks for reporting the bug! I hope that there'll be a solution for both of us.
Good to hear that you don't see tearing. It only happens on fast sequences.

[Solved] Minimalist setup with no video tearing

Hello all,
I maybe jumping the gun a bit here (as I still have other issues with flash and can't really test properly - see here), but here goes.
After lots of reading and experimenting, I came to the conclusion that I really like the minimalistic approach of using Openbox and adding stuff as I need (Tint2 etc.).
However, It also came clear pretty soon that should I want to make things look a bit nicer (that is, using some sort of composite manager), I will most likely end with screen tearing to some degree, using one of the non-opengl composite managers (xcompmgr, cairo commgr, compton).
That is when I came across the option of using Compiz as a standalone WM, with no DE, which should solve the problem of tearing and still remain pretty minimalistic.
Compiz, however, if I understand correctly, is going through some development "difficulties" this days (mainly used in-house by Ubuntu).
Bottom line, my options, as I'm aware of, are:
1. Openbox + no composite manager - should have no tearing, as minimalistic as it gets, a bit rough.
2. Openbox + some composite manager (most likely compton) - will probably have tearing, still minimalistic, a bit nicer.
3. Compiz 0.8.8 from repos - not sure, actually, except from the fact that I will probably not have video tearing and that it's a bit outdated as the 0.9.x line is considered stable by Canonicial.
4. Compiz 0.9.7 (or 0.9.x should I feel adventurous) - I think I've read somewhere the 0.9.x line isn't really suited to be used as a standalone WM, something to do with the absence of Emerald (not too sure, though).
Any input regarding those 4 options is highly appreciated, Adam.

Doesn't matter what video card you have. OpenGL is OpenGL. Older cards support older versions of it, but it should still be enough for basic desktop effects.
I was thinking of using a script that kills (or pauses) the composite manager if the media player window is fullscreen, since video tearing is more noticeable in fullscreen videos than windowed. Maybe adapt this script? Bah. I'm too lazy... Right now I can't be bothered with eye-candy. I used to have the tint2 clock set to right click and left click. One killed xcompmgr and refreshed the desktop and the other one started it, and restarted tint2 (for the true transparency to kick in). It's doable but I kinda gave up on it and went with vanilla Openbox + pseudo-transparency in tint2, guake and aterm because that's the only 3 programs that I wanted transparency in. And I can live without shadows. Easier on the resources too.

Horizontal video tearing in xfce and ion graphics (nvidia)

Hello all,
I have arch + xfce running no problems, but there is significant horizontal video tearing when I play videos (in vlc or firefox/flash). I have already enabled 'Sync to VBlank' within the nvidia-utils control panel. I think the problem arises from the xfce monitor settings window that only allows the frequency output to the monitor to be 50Hz. Can someone confirm this and/or offer advice?
Thanks again,
DF

Since Devotedfollower is using a nvidia ion card he will get the best results without compositing at all.
If you want to use a nvidia card along with compiz without tearing, I found these additional steps to be necessary:
put
Option "TripleBuffer" "True"
under Section "Device" in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you don't have one, run "nvidia-xconfig" once as root)
put "nvidia-settings -l" into your startup applications
install and launch ccsm, open up the general options and look for a tick called "Sync to VBlank" and activate it
within these general options there is a tick called "recognize refresh rate" (or something alike); deactivate it
try playing around with the refresh rate slider (I got the best results when using the exact refresh rate for my display or something higher)
Note that these steps are only necessary if you really want to use compiz on nvidia cards. They worked with several GTX cards for me. Don't know about your ION though.
My netbook has an ION but it was one of the first ones. As far as I can remember it had no tearing on xfce without compositing but on compiz it had a bit tearing at the top of screen even with all the steps above.
Nevertheless I wish you best luck!
P.S. Tearing has always been a huge problem on Linux for me. After a lot research I found compiz being the only compositor able to almost eliminate tearing. So the only choice for nvidia users to get rid of video tearing is either to use no compositing at all (which results in teary desktop graphics) or to use compiz along with vdpau...

Video "tearing" on monitors

I am using Premiere CS5.5. I have a GTX 460 card with the MPE GPU acceleration turned on. I am using the DVI output from the card to my GUI monitor and the HDMI output to a second computer monitor (Samsung - supposedly hi-def, though I know this is not the same as a true hi-def production video monitor).
I am still working with a lot of SD footage. It seems like anytime there is significant camera movement in an SD clip, there will be tearing somewhere across the middle of the image. This is true in my source monitor, my program monitor and my second full-screen monitor. The location of the tearing can vary with each playback. If I look at the same clip with the VLC player, I don't see the tearing. Is there something I can do in Premiere to stop this from happening?
J. D.

DVI/HDMI Monitoring is a smart solution and has a lot of benefits (e.G. GPU processed video can send directy out to the monitor) but also has drawbacks becaus sometimes you are at risk of occasionally stuttering (SDI framebuffer cards are more stable at this currently) and you have to set the screen refresh rate for yourself (50Hz, 59,976Hz, 60Hz, 48Hz...)
--> Video tearing is a thing that should not occour on a modern computer with a GTX 460.
Do you also have video tearing with VLC media player or Windows Media Player?
--> You have to check you Video driver settings to get rid of the tearing I think...
I don't have any video tearing with my Nvidia Cards exept one really old 8400GS in a server...

Video tearing

Lately I've been noticing quite a bit of video tearing on my 3g iphone. It looks like the kind of video tearing one sees when connecting a computer to a tv. I don't know how else to explain it.
Any ideas?

Can you describe this a little better? I have a Mac Mini connected to a tv and video plays fine.

Video tearing under Linux w/Air 2.6

Flash 10.2 fixed the problem of video tearing of Flash applications under Linux with the move to use OpenGL for displaying. Does Air 2.6 (or will a future version) support the same OpenGL layer and/or is there a config file like the Flash mms.cfg that must be edited to enable hardware acceleration?
Video tearing is a massive issue with full screen applications under Linux and we need a solution now with Air since Flash >= 9 does not allow keyboard input when fullscreened.
Thanks,

Though AIR is no longer being actively supported on Linux, do you happen to have a bug number that we can look into from bugbase.adobe.com? If not, would you mind adding a bug report?

PE 13 crashes due to incompatible video driver detected. Running on Win 7 SP1 with ATI 540v video card/driver. Deleting bad driver file in adobe program data does not fix the problem, it simply replaces the text file and crashes again. My video driver is just fine. Any help out there?

Your video card driver may be fine for something, but just not compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1.
For those with the display card error, the answers include
a. assure your video card/graphics card driver version is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card -
if necessary consider a driver roll back.
b. determine in Device Manager/Display Adapters if the computer is using 2 cards instead of 1
c. delete the BadDrivers.txt file
the rationale for that deletion is found in post 10 of the following older post...principle applies to 13 as well as 9.
Re: Premiere Elements 9 Tryout Serious Display Problem
Have you looked for computer ATI card settings that might be more compatible with Premiere Elements 13/13.1?
When is the program crashing - just opening a new project or rather crashing if editing a particular video format at the Timeline level?

Win7 will not recognize my ATI 5870 video card on Bootcamp

HI,
I have a MAC pro 1.1 and I have an ATI 5870 video card. On OS 10.9.3 the mac sees the video card just fine, but when I use Bootcamp and run Win7 I can’t get the card to work properly. I tried to go to ATI and download the drivers but I keep "no such card found on your device" error from ATI or I can’t fine the correct drivers. When I run Dxdiag the video area shows me no video card information aside from this card is working properly. Can anyone assist me please?
Thank s in advance.

A Mac Pro 1,1 technically can't run Mac OS X 10.9 without a hack. Thus it is unlikely the Boot Camp drivers Apple included for it would recognize anything on it newer than is supported. You could try using another Virtualization engine that speaks to all graphics chips with their own drivers:

I tried to go to ATI and download the drivers but I keep "no such card found on your device" error from ATI or I can’t fine the correct drivers. When I run Dxdiag the video area shows me no video card information aside from this card is working properly. Can anyone assist me please?
Thank s in advance.

have you tried to download the correct bootcamp driver zip for your mac and manually install the latests Radeon amd driver from that?
