           Summary: VDPAU: videos slow to a crawl when more than 1 video
                    is playing
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: joaoboia at outlook.com
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: NEW

         Component: Drivers/Gallium/r600
           Product: Mesa

If you try to view more than one video using hardware decoding videos will slow
down and become unwatchable. 

For example when try use two VLC instances playing different videos or one
video on VLC and one on XBMC or one video on XBMC and another on Firefox.

Not sure if there's an actual hardware limitation on this or not. If it is a
limitation of the hardware, it should deny access to the application so it can
revert to software decoding.
