Comment 10 for bug 880840

ricardo,

you should not need to disable a/v sync (e.g sync=false). even with audio-sink=fakesink you can get a/v sync, in which case it uses an OS timer for sync.

things you can do to check h/w accelerated video:

 - watch -d cat /proc/interupts --> you should see mailbox ITs when doing video playback
 - check syslink_daemon is running with ps
 - look at the GST pipeline:
    export GST_DEBUG_DUMP_DOT_DIR=/tmp
    <run any MM command, such as playbin2 or totem>
    <look for the .dot file in /tmp, it's a graphical representation of the pipeline computed dynamically, using dot format>
    dot -T png -O /tmp/<your file>.dot --> open the PNG, you should see that 1) the decoder element used is 'gstducati', 2) the displaysink is pvrvideosink
