    <div>Hi Marco,<br>
      <br>
      the problem with an CS ioctl flag is that we sometimes don't know
      how much SCLK/MCLK boost is needed, for example when we do post
      processing in the player using OpenGL and UVD decoding with VDPAU.
      In this case VDPAU don't has the slightest idea how high SCLK/MCLK
      must be and so can't give that info to the kernel either.<br>
      <br>

            <br>
            to make a long story short every time I watch a movie my
            laptop start to heat up because we always select the
            standard UVD power profile without actually measuring if
            that is necessary.<br>
            <br>
            Marco came up with a patch that seems to reliable measure
            the fps send down to the kernel and so together with knowing
            the frame size of the video should allow us to select the
            right UVD power profile.<br>
            <br>
            The problem is that Alex (unnoticed by me) completely
            disabled selecting the UVD profiles because of some issues
            with advanced post processing discussed on IRC. The problem
            seems to be that the lower UVD profiles have a to low
            SCLK/MCLK to handle the 3D load that comes with scaling,
            deinterlacing etc...<br>
            <br>
            I unfortunately don't have time for it, cause this only
            affects the hardware generations R600-SI and not the newest
            one CIK. So could you guys stick together and come up with a
            solution? Something like a sysfs entry that let's us select
            the minimum UVD power level allowed?<br>
            <br>
            I think Marco is happy to come up with a patch, we just need
            to know what's really needed and what should be the default
            values. I'm happy to review everything that comes out of it,
            just don't have time to do it myself.<br>
            <br>
            Happy discussion and thanks in advance,<br>

                            It should at least handle the UVD side for

                            lot<br>

                          At this point we always choose the plain UVD

                        Hui? I thought we already re-enabled the dynamic

                      We did, but after doing so a number of people

                    That's strange, from my experience the different UVD

                    affect UVDs dclk/vclk, not sclk/mclk. I need to get
