I've been playing around with the frequency scaling settings on my N810 and lately I've noticed that whenever I play media on the built in Media player, the CPU frequency will be fixed to 330 Mhz even if I'm using powersave (which supposedly fixes it to 168 Mhz), performance (400 Mhz) or any other governor.

Using mplayer this also happens also but it bumps the speed to 400 Mhz instead. I guess this is one reason why mplayer plays better video in the N810.

Anyway this is not an issue but just a mere curiosity. Anyone has a hint as to why this happens?

Note: You can set the frequency scaling governor by installing and using the advanced-power-manager status bar widget from the extra repositories.
