...I remember you asked a question about your firepro before.

I took some time to search for the FirePro2270 specs...
...And I must say...it's not a good card for Vjing...

FIREPRO2270

This card only consumes 15W at maximum power....this is not very much.
Did you ever tried to play a 3D game (2009-2012) with your card?

Related to the low FPS issue ...

I have noticed that while giving false FPS, the FPS output of Resolume seems to be following the refresh rate of the connected system.

If I am running Arena, with no external monitors (just laptop) I get ~60fps

If I connect DVI direct to my LED wall in Arena I get ~75fps (standard resolution for this wall is 1024x768@75)

If I connect to VGA-DH2G I get ~60fps

Connecting direct from laptop to a video processor also yields the same result. I will pick custom resolutions and Arena almost always seem to read the refresh rate as the FPS

Edit: The playback still works as expected
