Topic: SMPlayer lags on full screen | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Hi,

I have SVP 4.1.0.101 installed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with SMPlayer. I'm new to ubuntu. I mostly play 480p videos on my pc. Video runs smoothly while the window is windowed. Once I put it to full screen the video starts lagging. CPU usage is about 40%... I don't have a separated GPU and SVP manager doesnt show any gpu devices for GPU acceleration. How to fix the video lag on full screen ?

Specs:
Intel Core i3 4130 @ 3.4Ghz
Integrated GPU : Intel HD4400
Ram : 4gb

Thank You.

Maybe it is not enough for upscaling while rendering 480p picture in SMPlayer in fullscreen.
Try to change video output drivers.
