similar to: Tip: Overlay frames per second on fullscreen 3d games

Thanks for the help, James! its finally working!

Hi all, I'm looking for a way to force a certain window on my desktop to go fullscreen. The window in question is from Enemy Territoy, it tries to go fullscreen, but for some reason doesn't work, and stay always redirected with obvious framerate slowdown (keep 6-7 fps average on a FX 5200). I was thinking something like xwinwrap, which you can call a process and force his window to

Hi. I want to know if there are any way to know the fps in Wine, like ShowFPS in Cedega, or any program, like FRAPS, that work in Wine. Thanks

When I run naiture in WINE (it is a Windows based program that I am trying to move to Linux/OpenSource) it says the FPS is like 500+ with just a block in the center. Yet the actual visual framerate is quite choppy: [Image: http://www.naiture.net/snap/wine1.png ] Here it is running in full, the reported FPS is more realistic: [Image: http://www.naiture.net/snap/wine2.png ] Why would the

I have a GTX260 216 core, running the latest Nvidia binary driver(260.xx). I have a Phenom II x4 3.2ghz, and 4GB of DDR3-1600 ram. All in all, not a bad system. Now, my problem is that no matter what settings I use, I tend to get in the 30-50fps range with DX8.1. Lower if there's a lot of action onscreen. The interesting thing is that my frame-rate doesn't change significantly with

Hi there, last week I installed Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 on my Thinkpad W530. It has the following specifications: Intel Core i7-3820QM Intel HD 4000 and nVidia Quadro K2000M 15,6" FHD RGB 1920x1080 With "Optimus" enabled in the BIOS, I am able to use the external monitor via VGA-1-2. But there are refresh problems only on the external monitor: Mouse traces, parts of a window remain on

Hi, i've a weird problem. I'm playing gothic , installation works fine and the music too. So, that's the problem: When the character is motionless, and i look around with the mouse, the framerate increase a lot! But when i look around with the keyboard, doing the same movements with the mouse, the framerate decrease a lot. It seems there's something wrong with the keyboard

Hi everyone, I hate to ask n00bish questions, but after several days of forum scouring and searching for answers, I'm at a loss as to where to go next. I'm a long-time Linux CLI user, but I haven't really played with Wine or many aspects of the GUI-end until recently. I've been trying to get two of my favorite Windows games to run on my Debian Testing install, and keep coming to

Hi I'm trying to store video I encode to a file using Theora and Ogg. The video I record is from my webcam and although the framerate is set to 30 fps I rarely get more then 28-29 fps. Since Theora is fed with a framerate which isn't precise the time of each frame when I play it in VLC doesn't match the exact time of when the frame occurred. So basically I wonder how can I sync a

hi yorn and all, thank you oggvideo tools for windows. it is great... i can live with the command line for now myself but i will need to make some art students work with oggvideotools and they may not be happy with that:D anyway your video tutorial is also good (but it also crashed my firefox 3.5 beta 4 for two times on windows and i have reported that to mozilla), i would love to help for that

Hello, I'm a relatively new user to Linux, it's only been two weeks since I'm using it. I'm trying to run two games right now : Halo and Live for Speed. Here are the issues for each. Halo : Performance in Halo is excellent, it's actually better in Linux than it was in Windows XP. Frame rate is good, looks like solid 60 FPS all the time. The only problem is the mouse movement

Hi all ! We have writtent a theora binding for ocaml, which we are using for liquidsoap. We are currently in the process of completing the video support in liquidsoap, but we discovered that our use of the encoder does not work any more. To be more precise, the video encoded with libtheora 1.1.1 are not correct, while they are correct with 1.0.2 with the same binary. The symptoms are that

Hey guys. I just got Skyrim running in Arch Linux with wine 1.4RC3, and my framerate seems pretty low. I'm using an Evga GTX 560 Ti 448 core classified, an i5 2500k OC'd at 4.5ghz, and 16gb ddr3 at 1600. The 560 ti is running the latest Nvidia beta drivers. The average framerate is around 30 fps on ultra. Is that about what I should expect from that hardware, or is this a wine thing?

Hi, I'm just attempting to re-encode some 720p HD (720x576) mpeg2-transport files to theora using ffmpeg2theora. However it seems impossible to get the framerate right; if I leave it on default the framerate seems to be doubled, if I force input fps to 50 it seems to go half speed. The files play fine with ffplay however. Has anyone got any clues? Cheers, Steve -- Steve Smith,

Hey all! I'm sure you've all been missing my webcam stream, so I decided to start it up again (also, I wanted to do it for my family overseas). However, this time, I'm doing things a little bit differently. For starters, the encoder is the current (as of about an hour ago) ptalarbvorm branch which is destined to become libtheora 1.2. Another difference is that I'm using

The AppDB lists Team Fortress 2 as Platinum. It says it should run "flawlessly out-of-the-box." In Windows, I can max out all of the settings and get a steady 100+ FPS. In Wine, I have to set everything to Low, and even then, I still only get 20-30 FPS, occasionally dropping down into the 0-10 range when multiple players are on the screen. That doesn't sound flawless. Aside from

Hi folks,I'm joining this list because I've encountered difficulties with the ogg tools. I'm running Windows, and can't find binaries for liboggz tools, such as oggz-merge.exe Can someone provide oggz-merge.exe? So I use ffmpeg (v19289) for muxing ffmpeg -y -i sync2.ogg -i sync.ogv -vcodec copy -acodec copy sync2.ogv but the framerate fluctuates wildly on playback, and ogginfo

I have done some research and I haven't found any other answer but the following: > Tweak #1 > > The following from http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5606 , a simple registry edit for Wine that dramatically increases the framerate in game for both ATi and nVidia users (reportedly, I have only verified with nVidia using Wine 0.9.22): > > Code: > regedit >
