SV24 and DVD playback thru TV out?

[Pod]

Anyone else doing this?

I've got a 1GHz celeron, 384MB ram and a Pioneer 16x DVD drive.
I'm using the onboard video/TV out.

If I set the resolution to 640x480 and 24 bit colour, it plays, but is a bit (too) jerky.
If I set it to 640x480 and 16 bit colour, the jerkiness goes, but the colours/shading looks grainy and crap. :mad:

I wasn't expecting a lot from this box, but I thought it would cope with this.

Oh, and just to complicate things a tad more, I'm using the program 'ogle' under linux. :rolleyes:

I'd like to know if anyone else is using this box with the onboard TV out in either linux or windows to play DVDs.

If it turns out that windows would work better, I'll have to cough up the cash for a license. I'd like to have a good reason first though...

I WAS using this box for play back in windows and it was perfect and an update of drivers helped to no end.

If you've got a spare harddisk give windows a shot see if it makes a difference. If it does find a better Linux player - yes I know its not easy to do, I gave up myself and just use windows for DVD.

As for licences - search ebay - older OS such as 98 don't go for much at all anymore.
