Graphical corruption in X after playing media or using chromium

In SMPlayer (xv output) and sdlmame, when I switch to full screen, afterwards X will show graphical corruption. This does not seem to happen with VLC or GnomeMPlayer.
For SMPlayer, the task bar space between icons and the pager, and the rest of it after the pager will become unreadable and just a mess of grey and coloured lines. After about a minute when the clock applet updates the time, it will redraw and become readable again (only the clock applet, not the whole bar). To make the rest visible too, I have to move the mouse over it and click the icons (volume, brightness, and so on) so they get redrawn.
In the case of sdlmame, the desktop background picture even gets corrupted in maybe its top 25% area over the full screen width.
When I start chromium web browser, the top part of the browser window and the task bar above it will flicker like crazy with corrupted lines. Sometimes the whole window will flicker, I think. This happens mostly while typing in an URL, and leaves the same corruption in the task bar as SMPlayer (->have to mouseover/click on the icons to make them redraw).
It happens _all the time_ if I just move the mouse over the website (for examle google translate). I don't even have to click on anything, just moving will make the whole upper half of the chromium window flicker like crazy with corrupted lines, rendering the page unreadable.
In Firefox this problem does not occur at all.
I'm using Xfce4 and Compositor is disabled.

I am now pretty sure that this is a software bug in Leopard. I have been back to Tiger for 10 days straight now and the problem hasn't reoccurred.
It can't the temperature, because I installed iStats and they show the hottest part is GPU, but it is only 51 degrees C (123.8 fahrenheit) during hours of heavy use. Also back in leopard I tried out a fan control app and set all fans to max RPM (which was really loud), and that didn't affect the random polygons.
I don't know why it happens only in Leopard but I am not going to update back to it till I know for sure that this has been fixed.
PS. The only system level 3rd party app I had installed in Leopard when the problem first occurred was Steer mouse, but I doubt a mouse driver can cause this kind of a problem. Besides I have it always installed in Tiger too. This is why I outclose the possibility of 3rd party apps being the cause.

Graphics are corrupted with windows after playing WoW.

Hello,
I have a bought new Macbook and up until recently, it has been completely problem free. Recently though, I have had a few issues regarding some slight graphics corruption on windows and software.
For example the edges of the windows on Preview.
http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn77/mrmalachai/Picture1-1.png
These graphical disturbances seem to come about after I play WoW and seem to disappear again after a quick restart, but I just wondering what might be causing it and if it is something I should worry about.
Is there any way to prevent these strange graphical disruptions?
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks guys.
S.

You should be searching using Google or going into a WoW forum because it's an issue caused by WoW. It seems to be rare because lots of people play WoW and I've never heard this before.

HT1449 Partially corrupted iTunes library after moving media folder

I moved my media folder to a new hard drive but somehow lost the library file in the process. I used my time machine backup to get an old library file and I placed it back in the iTunes folder on my home drive, but unfortunately it's a few months old, and additions to my itunes folder since then are invisible when I open iTunes. Is there a way to force the iTunes app to rebuild the library, thus recognizing my new downloads since the old library file was built? Songs I'd downloaded and copied from my CDs up to the old library build are working fine.

You probably should have done:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.
To answer your question, drag the media folder on the other drive to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder. It will add anything that's not in iTunes and ignore anything that is.

Re: play media without using the JMF?

Possible? Yes!
Logical? Probably Not!
The JMF implements a number features that video players need and thus reduces the amount of coding required to produce video products.
I have a altered an MPEG-4 codec written in C so that it can be called via JNI (The Java Native Interface) meaning I can decode MPEG-4 content while programming in Java.
If I were to avoid using JMF then I would have to deal with the conversion of the output from YCbCr (Commonly but mistakenly called YUV) to RGB and then put in an object that the Java awt system could present on the screen e.g. BufferedImage etc. Then I would have to deal with the timing etc for framerates and make sure that the data was processed quickly enough to be displayed as desired.
But by using the JMF I can just write a codec plugin and let the JMF handle the rest.
Hope this helps,
Stef

Hi, ii hope i explain this for ya
Jun4Java is an application written in java, it can handle 3d graphics and multimedia. The only way i found out that it was able to play the mpeg-4 movies, flash files, etc was buy actually running the application and trying to open and play the files with it - which it did.
As far as i can understand, jun4java uses the jni to enable it to play these media files, but to better explain it for you i think i'm gona post the readme file you get when you download the app, it explains jun4java, and it's capabilites better than i ever will...
Befoe you read it, the one thing i've noticed is that it seems to use the jni to play the multimedia through quicktime,
Jun for Java
"Jun for Java" is a name of a Java class library which can be
used as a framework to handle 3D graphics and/or multimedia. It
is an open source software, designed and implemented with object
oriented technologies, and of course free of charge.
Jun provides an OpenGL interface as a primitive for 3D graphics
handling. Of course you can do OpenGL programming by using the
OpenGL interface directly, we also provide dozens of advanced
features, large and small, as reusable class libraries,
including "ViewFinder" which shows 3D objects and allows users
to manipulate them, "ViewPort" which visualizes an eye point, a
sight point, far/near clipping planes, etc. of a corresponding
ViewFinder, "Flux" which plays a simple animation, "Grapher"
which shows graph structures (nodes and links) in a 3D space,
and so on.
"Jun for Java" also provides a QuickTime interface as a
primitive for multimedia handling. In addition to playing
movies/sounds or processing images by using the QuickTime
interface directly, there is a movie player, which is just like
a QuickTime Player, and you can extend it to create your own
movie player. You also can embed the movie player to your
application. Some advanced features like specifing a clip,
playing and repeating the clip, and creating a movie file of the
clip are also available.
Since "Jun for Java" provides functions for handling both 3D
graphics and multimedia, it is easy to coordinate them. For
example, you can select a frame of a movie and use it as a
texture of a 3D object without any hard programming. This is
the one of the strongest points of "Jun for Java".
"Jun" was originally developed on VisualWorks (Smalltalk) and
ported to Java as a project for the Information-technology
Promotion Agency, Japan (IPA). "Jun for Java" currently runs
on Windows 98/Me/NT4.0/2000/XP, Linux, and Macintosh OS X.

Graphics corruption in Mission Control after 10.7.2 upgrade

I've upgraded to 10.7.2 this morning and am now getting graphics corruption upon entering Mission Control. A screenshot of this can be seen here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16496720/Lion-10.7.2-screen%20corruption.jpg
This is occurring on a 2011 Macbook Air 13" on the built-in display as well as with an attached 30" ACD.
I'll keep looking further into this, incl possible situations where this doesn't occur, but in the meantime - has anybody else encountered this?
Cheers
Steffen.

I have had the same issue since initial 10.7.0 install. Doesn't seem to affect function at all.. but disconcerting nonetheless. I have yet to find anything acknowleding the problem or how to fix it.

Graphics Corruption in Some Apps - Problem with Geforce GT750

Hi
I am recently facing a graphics corruption problem with my 2013 MBPr. Yesterday I noticed that the window that shows the mail in Mail.app suddenly showed just some noise (just some strange colors). I restarted the app and it was gone. Then I installed a game named "Tales from the Borderlands". On the menu of the game I noticed the corruption again. Every time I would exit and rerun the game, the distortion would randomly change. Here are some examples:
The problem appeared throughout the game too.
Then I forced "Integrated Only" using a gfxCardStatus to use Intel Iris Pro instead of Geforce GT750. I started the game and the problem was gone. I tried some more times again by switching GPUs and every time I noticed that the problem is with Geforce GT750 and Intel Iris Pro has no problem.
Any ideas what is causing the problem and what should I do? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Tormirez,
I can't believe my eyes.. I actually was afraid this might happen.
Since I've been following the 2011 MBP forum after i had my MBP repaired (reflow by someone near Antwerp, Belgium), I've been learning some specific things about the very likely nature of these GPU issues.
All these issues seem to be related to the replacement of leaded solder by nearly pure tin solder + not soldering according to the best profile (temperature vs time).
The factor of time saving = money saving may very well play a role here.
When you consider the nature of that leaded solder problem versus the soldering profiles, it's not hard to imagine that the problem isn't just in the 2011 model range, but may actually have started FROM that range...! I've already heard that some 2012 models also failed in a similar way.
It may all be quite logical; tin solder needs a roughly 60ºC higher temperature to get into full liquid state then leaded solder.
As the cheapest way to produce boards is probably rolling entire boards through ovens, melting the parts on it, it would require very precise monitoring of temperatures UNDER the CPU and GPU, to be SURE you have a full flow going on.
But, at the same time, as you're cooking ALL components around 240ºC, they may have chosen not to stay at this temperature long enough. Or, maybe they stop at 240ºC, while 242ºC might be the minimum required temperature to guarantee full flow.
Etc.. It's a very complicated mix of factors that determines if small or large batches of board could contain errors at all or not.
But it may at least be called "bizarre" that these solder errors are found in tens of thousands 2011 MBPs, but also in 2012 models, and in the PS4 and also other brand Windows PCs!!
If you want to test your GPU hard, download GpuTest OSX x64 0.7.0 from ( geeks3d . com / gputest ) and run the FurMark based stress test on HD resolution for 30-60 mins straight, then turn your machine off completely for 15-30 mins (until it's really cold, put it down on some cold stone floor might help), then repeat several times.
If the same problem would be hidden in there as in the 2011 models, this is the way to get it triggered soon.
If you ask me, this might be the first report of the same problem in the 2013 series.....
Question; do you game a lot? If you answer yes, then it would pretty much make a connection to this similar problem I think!
I'm curious about the results of the stress test!

KT4AV - Graphics Corruption

I just recently purchased the KT4AV with a new stick of DDR RAM (see profile for completely specs). I upgraded from a K7T Turbo2 and 512MB PC133. My video card ran smoothly with no evidence of problems in this configuration. With my new setup, graphics abnormalities are evident even on bootup! For instance, the energy star logo has black lines in it (while the BIOS is doing it's thing)...and the Windows XP logo on startup also has these black lines. Running mpg/avi/etc within windows..they have black lines as well. This becomes full blown graphics corruption when I run Direct3D graphics...for example UT2004.
I also have assessed this problem by runnign ATItool (it comes with a spinning cube and nicely shows how my graphics corruption progresses)...b/c the strange thing about this problem is that this corruption starts to go away after the computer has been running for about 1hr -2 hrs. However, if I shut it down overnight...the graphics corruption is very noticeable upon bootup. For instance, using ATItool, I get corruption within seconds of starting the spinning cube (Direct3D) when I start the computer for the first time. Then if I let the compuer run for an hour or two, I can then let ATItool run for a long time...at least 20 minutes...without the graphics problem.
I have tried to slightly change memory timing settings...and that doesn't effect the problem. I have AGP fast writes disabled (b/c it doesn't like being enabled...just like it doesn't like being at 8X AGP...which from readin through these boards, I can see is a problem...but doesn't make a difference to me since 4X is just as fast)...I have pretty much played around with the BIOS settings...going from more on the performance side to the normal side, and nothign changes. My BIOS version is 5.0 right now, and although I know there is a 5.1, it doesn't say anything about this problem so I prefer not to upgrade. I also have run MemTest86 for 1/2 hour and there were no memory errors. This was on a "hot" boot so maybe I shoudl try it on the cold boot? B/c of course I suspect either the memory or the motherboard could be the problem since those are the two components I changed. So I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas why this is happening...i have never encountered graphics corruption that goes AWAY with the computer being on for a while and then comes back when it has been off. Any helpful advice would be appreciated! Thanks...let me know if anyone would like a picture of the graphics corruption from the spinning cube on ATItool.

Ok well I think this next set of experiments is fairly telling:
osnavi, I took your advice and decided to disconnect the case fans. Before I did though, I went into the BIOS and checked CPU and SYS temps at idle: 47,37 respectively. I also checked to make sure that there were no corruption of the WinXP logo (since my system had been up and running and I had just finished playing UT2004 I figured everything would be ok...which it was). So then I shut down the computer and disconnected the 2 case fans. Then I let the computer cool down for 5 min or so. I then booted up the computer (w/o the fans connected) and let it start booting so I could see logo...and graphics corruption was still present...i then quickly pressed Ctrl-Alt-Del and rebooted, then went directly into BIOS and recorded temps displayed there: CPU->37, SYS->28. I then waited for about 8 minutes for temps to stabilize and reach max: CPU->47 SYS->40 (surprised it's not higher since 2 case fans are off, but that's another issue!) Anyways, I then exited the BIOS and..bingo...no corruption...videos/games/Direct3D all fine in windows. So the conclusion from this seems to be that 1) the case fans don't seem to contribute to the corruption, 2) this corruption is definitely temp linked and something happens when temp goes up by ~10 deg, and 3) this problem seems to be independent of windows since the problem exists and can be resolved before windows even starts.
Now what could be heating up that makes my system run like it should??? No idea! Anybody?
Ok just to add a bit more info...reconnected both case fans....let system cool off....then restarted (corruption present)...entered BIOS...waited for same amount of time as before, and temps were stable at CPU->46 and SYS->36. However, as I mentioned above, I could get the corruption to go away at 47/40, the corruption would not go away at 46/36...so it seems to be a case temp dependent problem. Anyways, I guess this isn't such terrible problem since it does go away, however, I'm concerned that it indicates that the mobo may be defective in some way?

Graphic corruption p7n diamond

I have had a p7n diamond MB for quite some time now as has my wife, since day one we have experienced the graphics corruption problem so many speak of. Our problem does not always happen when playing movies, sometimes it can happen just when viewing jpeg files or even just renaming files in explorer. We are running xp home, I also run xp 64 and this graphic problem is not predictable, days or weeks can go by with no problem, but sometimes we can get it several times a day.
I have taken some screen shots of what the corruption looks like with the use of the Prt Scr key and then pasting the clipboard into a paint program and then saving, no easy task when this corruption is present. I have made sure all my drivers are up to date, even gone back a few revisions on some, recently I flashed my MB bios to 1.4 but still the graphic corruption happens at random. Never when I am playing 3d games like fallout 3 or similar.
When I did flash my bios I did not turn off power and pull plug after I flashed and did not press the cmos reset button near the IO panel, was that needed, and if so even after flashing and booting now several times can I just power down, pull plug and now reset cmos or do I need to reinstall 1.4 bios again ? Sorry if this question is noobish but I am just about ready to give up on this MB

Well Well now we are slowly running out of options. Personally I have never tried to stabilize my P7N Diamond in Windows XP, so this is the max stability we can achieve I think in Windows XP. I recommend you to upgrade your OS to windows vista or windows 7 as soon as possible,the board can me made perfectly stable under these OS.Haven't you thought about it yet?
Sorry to say, but if its stable in Vista and 7, why cant it be done in xp???
Its a load of rubbish, imo, to make someone go to another OS, if XP, which is one of the most stable MS OS at this time, cant be run stable.
Vista can be a horror, I talk out of experience, since I had it since day one, 7 is fairly new and thus still pretty expensive and these people are, if im correct, on a budget.
1, do you have new sata cables at hand??
I saw that one of the last times it happened you had Winrar running and again when formatting a drive, so it seems to happen when you use your HD a lot.
If I remember correct, those can be faulty too (loose contacts, not shielded very well, bad wiring internally) and cause similar things, they dont cost much and is well worth thinking about.
2, do you still have that pesky Creative soundcard??
If so, remove it (best option) or disable it and remove all its drivers and stuff, creative can be a pain, especially those drivers and try again.
Use Driver Sweeper (freeware) to get completely rid of all its drivers, look here:
http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-(Setup)_d1655.html
Ive seen people with creative cards getting all sorts of troubles, including myself and after they removed it, all was fine.
If I recall correct, it was already a problem on your boards predecessor, the P6N diamond and your board isnt that different, it runs the newer Yorkfields and has PCIe2.0 instead of 1.x, but thats about all the difference there is.
I had games stopping due to a driver from Creative and BSOD's, needlees to say I scrapped that card and Ill make do with my onboard 5.1 realtek, which suits me just fine
If it is the problem, get a normal card for a few bucks, they dont have to be that expensive, unless your a big audiofan who can separate all different frequencies and tones
Upping the southbridge (SB) voltage isnt a good idea either.
This is the connection to the slower stuff in/on your system like, HD's, cd/dvd stations, keyboard and such and therefore dont need to have more voltage, at least not on any of the systems I had.
On my current system it caused more troubles then it did good.
Try 1 thing at a time and test/use/wait to see if it changes anything.

Graphic corruption ( glitch) with high setting in games

when im playing games i have graphics corruption and glitch if i put graphic setting too high.
i tried several games...
for example: need for speed underground 2:
high quality + 1024*768 = no corruption graphic
high quality + 1280*1024= no corruption graphic in the first minute after that time the graphic become worst. a lot of corruption very strange and after some minutes it freeze.
high quality + 1280*1024 + 4AA = corruption graphic even in game menu i only see the tires of the car lol and the menu text in corrupt a lot too. i tried to start the game and i only see 3 different color rectangle.
same things happen in others games with fifferent graphic setting.
this is strange because with my old 1600+ xp i didnt have any graphic corruption with my graphic card and my memory. i played need for speed underground 2 with these high stting without any corruption graphic all my drivers are updated.
PLEASE TRY TO HELP ME
( sorry for my bad english)
3000+ AMD 64
512 megs 266 mhz KINGSTON
160 hard disk WD
500 watts power supply
windows xp
MSI geforce 4 TI4200 64 megs 4x video card

what is psu ?
do you talk about power supply ?
i tried to remove all my drives except my hard disk, even without them, i have graphical corruption
Please help me i would appreciate.
anyway i will look the power supply stat if you need it
all i know for now that the power supply is a Encan dual fan 500 watts
I DID THE MEMORY TEST FOR 3 HOURS, NO ERROR
THANK YOU

Ffplay doesn't play video after using chromium

Primarily my VLC stops playing movies after a while of using PC (and I think it stops working after first youtube video in chrome... I have chromium with gtalk and google talk plugin, stackoverflow.com and youtube opened... and the only one that seems to me to be related to video is youtube).
This is what I get trying to use ffplay:

VLC opens and runs audio but with no video.
In chromium, video runs just fine.
I think (I'm not sure) that first youtube video stops vlc/ffplay from working properly.
Further more, after setting video output to X11 instead of "Default" in VLC videos start playing again, but still no luck with ffplay.
Output device set to X11 works (although with some errors):

Mavericks 10.9.1 and graphics corruption with mac pro early 2009

Mavericks 10.9.1 is causing graphics corruption with my mac pro early 2009.
ATI Radeon 4870 quit working altogether. Replaced with ATI Radeon 5870 and having different and weird graphics corruption issues.
Turned off screensaver because once I got all pink screen with occasional snowflakes flickering on screen. That has stopped now but other things still happening.

Monitor won't enter power save after playing You Tube videos...

Hi
An issue has developed on my system in the last couple of months for which, after having done a lot of research and testing, a solution has not been found. After playing a video in You Tube, my monitor won't go into power save mode after the prescribed time. It tries to go off for a second and the screen goes blank but then comes straight on again. This happens after playing the You Tube videos in Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. I am running Windows XP Professional and I have the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer installed, the latest graphics card drivers, the latest version of direct x 9.0c.
To clear this error, I have to go into my XP power schemes settings and change it to another power scheme and then change it back to my default power scheme. However, as soon as I play another you tube video the same problem re-occurs.
I have tried turning off hardware acceleration but this makes no difference. My graphics card is a Gigabyte gv-nx86t512h: http://uk.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2604#ov
This never used to happen until recently. It seems that there is something with the Flashplayer that is not compatible with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer etc.
Any ideas as to what may be causing this and what can be done to overcome it would be greatly appreciated as it is a real nuisance.
Many thanks.
D

thanks for your suggestions.
i found the solution/workaround from somone else on the adobe forums:
Go to control panel, display, screen saver, choose a random screen saver, set a long time (i.e. 60 min, but always longer than your monitor shut off time), then select no screen saver, and save! Simple as that…

Graphics corrupted / garbled display on Core Duo MacBook Pro (ATI)

My first-generation (Core Duo) MacBook Pro (with ATI chipset) is having video problems.
When this happens, the graphics become corrupted / display becomes garbled and the computer freezes shortly afterwards making it basically unusable. You can just about follow a garbled mouse pointer around, but it is unresponsive.
The only solution is a hard reset (power button for seven seconds).
Has anyone encountered this problem?
At first, I suspected that the computer was overheating as it seemed to occur only after prolonged use - but in the past two days, it could freeze immediately at login screen basically making it completely unusable.
Apple Hardware Test (on original CD) says "No Problems Found", but I still suspect hardware trouble as this only began occuring a week or so after my computer had the left fan replaced (it stopped working after an earlier problem in January at the Apple Store in Highcross Leicester.
I suspect something ELSE is wrong and that it requires service again, so am planning to go to the store in Birmingham on Sunday (which is closer to me -- I went to the Leicester store last time). What should I ask Apple to look at? The graphic corruption occurs even when running right off the Leopard CD, or even on the Apple Hardware Test!

Hi - thanks for your help with the issue. Just as an update, I brought my Mac in for service on the 8th February at the Apple Store Bullring – and oddly, it worked perfectly in the Store. However, I showed them this thread and the pictures they had – and they replaced the logic board and apparently it's one of the costliest parts ever possible to place, shockingly expensive that it's like the cost of a new laptop! However as it's under AppleCare (well, higher education parts and labour warranty) it was covered. Phew!
I got my Mac back today, and so far, it appears to be working perfectly (though as the graphic problems were intermittent, I'm making sure I do backups!), and fingers crossed, I should now have a working Mac once again!
