Have you tried not to follow any blog but only the FAQ?
My computer has an i7-4785T CPU (not that different from yours) and uses accelerated graphics without even having a xorg.conf file.

My advice would be to reinstall from scratch and stick to the default configuration.
Being part of staff helps and, as mentioned earlier, you also need inteldrm-firmware.

Regarding mpv, I don't have a configuration file either and don't notice any lag.
i did stick to the faq
all the configuration i had was setting apmd to -A (which was from the faq)
but playing videos from youtube via mpv shows desynchronization.
and playing live streams via mpv, the video stutters (stop and go) every 3-4 seconds.
and also the high cpu usage.

perhaps you had success because the intel firmware you were using were from another time and had no issues?

anyways i've tried various mpv settings.... not much luck

when using ao=sndio i get:
[ao/sndio] Blocking until remaining audio is played... (sndio design bug).

This specific laptop is used by many people and is reported to work very well out of the box. You must have done something wrong.

The intel firmware is provided by fw_update. We use the same version.
Make sure you belong to the staff group (which is the case in a default install when adding a user). Check the output of:
Code:
$ ulimit -a
But if your limits were too low, you would experiment crashes.

Some tools like vmstat, iostat and top could give you clues on what's going on.

Once again consider to start over.

ulimit -a:
Quote:
time(cpu-seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
coredump(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 4194304
stack(kbytes) 4096
lockedmem(kbytes) 2641853
memory(kbytes) 7915136
nofiles(descriptors) 512
processes 256
it really is a fresh install.
only thing done was adding apmd -A (recommended by the faq)
and changing datasize-cur in login.conf from 1536M to 4096M (recommended by many online. but i wouldn't even try this if i had no problems in the first place).

I don't see anything wrong in Xorg.0.log.
Try removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d if it still exists and any tweak in /etc/sysctl.conf and mpv.
I assume you use xenodm to start a desktop. Which one is it by the way ?

What is the output of glxinfo | grep render and glxgears?
You can have a look at this https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/glxinfo

Does the same thing happen with a video located on a local drive?
Do you have the same problem with mplayer?

xorg.conf.d has been deleted
there has never been any tweak to /etc/sysctl.conf, by default that file doesn't even exist unless you create it. so currently there's no sysctl.conf file.

there's also no mpv config file by default. while i did try the suggestions from others previously, i have since deleted the file as the configuration settings didn't remedy the situation.

xenodm is the default xenodm that came with OpenBSD. i simply set up a .xsession with 3 lines. which are all from the FAQ.
export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc

these are done with no /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
note: by default, openbsd doens't seem to use the inte drm driver from fw_update. it reverts back to modesetting.


just installed mplayer. this is the result when attempting to play a regular youtube video:
just a plain newly installed mplayer with no extra configs or settings.

Sounds good.
What about the last two questions?

the above mplayer entries:
using it to play youtube video
using it to play a live stream from twitch.
those didn't actually work. it just displayed those info in my terminal window but no video was displayed.


regarding playing a video file locally. i did download a sample video and that did work with mplayer - although the file is very small in size and pretty low quality.

i'm trying to download a higher quality video file to see if perhaps different encodings and things will cause any problems for mplayer when played locally.

You can use youtube-dl to download a video and then use mpv/mplayer to see if there is any improvement.
