ATI cannot make working video drivers

[audiofreak]

Didn't realize I was insulting you, I simply asked if you were bored or looking for attention as this problem just isn't worth getting upset about.

1. Stupid people are easily bored.
2. Attention whores are craving for attention.

Which one of those two you had in mind when you asked me whether I was bored or looking for attention?

You obviously fail to realize that it is not "this problem" (i.e. OpenGL 4.0 tessellation) that got me upset -- it is an evergrowing collection of different problems that numerous ATI card owners are facing after each driver update.

As for my level of contribution, you may be right in that I guess it bothers you that not everyone is upset about ATI's products, drivers, etc

No, what bothers me is that people have accepted mediocre quality and they are allowing that quality to decay further.

We have been letting ATI get away with it while they were the underdog.
Give me one good reason why we should continue to tolerate their incompetence and sloppyness now?

....and if you have a problem with Charlie from another website, why are you ranting about it here?

I don't have a problem with Charlie, I have a problem with him turning a blind eye when it comes to ATI, and his unwillingness to investigate things that are bad for consumers if those things were not done by NVIDIA.

I know people who did, and nothing they reported got fixed so far.

Whats the number of reference frames got to do with anything related to ATI's ability to play back video or not ?

Playing Level@5.1 videos and videos with high number of reference frames resulted in corrupted image or even OS crashing. Not sure if that is still the case though.

No no nooooo, you missed the pun Ten-Four = Affirmitive

Hahaha, good one

Btw, Ten-Seven = Out of Service
