vlc and mplayer very slow on kde 4.3

[kobolds]

i reinstall fresh opensuse 11.1 x64. the i upgrade kde to the factory kde (4.3 rc1) using zypper dup . after that i install vlc and mplayer .

when i play a movie , vlc so slow that you can notice flick. while mplayer still playable but still notice slow.

i don't have such problem on kde 4.1 . also others program run pretty fast compare on kde 4.1 .why only effect video playback?

the nvidia driver up todate

when you play a file with mplayer through the terminal, what does it report? what's the output?

Maybe check and see if playback is better if you switch video playback in the settings fro VLC to x11

it seems your file is broken as reported by vlc (test on another one?). Also if your nVIDIA GPU supports VDPAU you may want to give it a try
