RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Nellgrove - 2014-05-06 (2014-05-06, 15:17)axbmcuser Wrote: I think your AVR is not affected by this issue. Thankyou RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-05-06 Onkyos have a "Postprocessing Setting" which needs to be turned off. Here is a testimage: or Is black black? Do you see all rows in the last one? (It's okay, when you don't see the top most three squares), but if a full line is missing - something is wrong. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - axbmcuser - 2014-05-06 @fritsch Question regarding the second blacklevel test image: Although all my movie files seem now correct black level wise, i noticed that the above test image (i used the second one) looks correct while looking at the thumbnail in the file overview. (almost all squares are visible separately) As soon as i launch the image to fullscreen, the image looks too dark. Is it possible that pictures are somehow rendered/processed differently hard-/software-wise than movies, so the image isn't correctly displayed while in fullscreen mode? RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-05-06 What does mean "too dark"? Make a photo of your TV, please :-) Also verify that black is black. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - axbmcuser - 2014-05-06 I tried - not that easy to take good meaningful pictures: Black seems black. It's just badly crushed so many squares are missing in fullscreen. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-05-06 Enable the Option "Use Limited Range" - what happens now? Is black still black? Provide: DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --verbose | pastebinit RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - sickpuppy - 2014-05-06 Sorry, will provide Debug Log before reposting my question.. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-05-06 Man - provide debuglogs, nobody knows what you are running, what OS nothing ... that is annyoing. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - axbmcuser - 2014-05-06 I test with a "limited rgb range only" lcd-tv autostart.sh Code: xrandr --output HDMI1 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full" Code: Use limited color range (16-235) Video-files look perfect black-level wise. BTW: I have a slight memory that i already noticed some time ago that image files seemed to be processed differently than video files. Didn't gave too much thought in it since it was a old nightly and i didn't use pictures at that time. DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --verbose (4.0 nightly r18348 from 2014.05.05, i can upgrade to 4.0 stable but i doubt that this changes something in this case) Code: Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767 RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Taxcheat - 2014-05-07 (2014-05-06, 06:45)macmus Wrote: I have issues with Netflix APP for windows 8 when using Dolby 5.1. The whole movie slow downs and it becomes unteachable. This is a known bug that Intel has not yet responded to, but there's a workaround: "While the Netflix app is running on the TV and a 5.1 DD+ audio track selected (i.e., with no sound output and skipping most video frames), go into the Speaker Setup configuration (right click on the Speakers icon, Playback Devices, select Intel Display Audio device, and click on Configure). Choose Stereo option and click Next a couple of times, followed by Finished." You'll get an error popup, but it will work. Go on the Intel communities forum and complain. Most of us who have been bringing this up for months (since December) have given up.

I like addon for XBMC but this one does not have dolby Oh well .. i will have to keep chromcast for some time .. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - MrCrispy - 2014-05-07 Wait, there's still the audio bug in Intel drivers? I thought this was only for BayTrail and not in Haswell. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - ahgee2 - 2014-05-07 (2014-05-06, 19:23)axbmcuser Wrote: @fritsch Just to confirm axbmcuser's observation, the test images look totally different in thumbnail (OK) and full screen (crushed blacks), which makes them a little difficult to use as test images! xbmc seems to be messing with the luminance when displaying pictures full screen, is this a known feature? This is with the sensible NUC RGB settings, i.e. X11 driver full RGB, xbmc setting 16-235, TV expecting limited range. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - fritsch - 2014-05-07 It does not. Could be a known feature by your TV ... "optimizing Contrast" or something. Try xbmc Limited option unset and keep your hdmi on limited (remove the xrandr hack) and compare.

Try xbmc Limited option unset and keep your hdmi on limited (remove the xrandr hack) and compare. Good point fritsch, as you say it's probably the TV. Mine's a recent Panasonic LCD, what's yours xbmcuser? I'll experiment with xbmc full RGB, X11 limited RGB (though this will presumably mean it's doing the nasty stretch-then-shrink luminance operations), as well as TV settings, and report back if I discover anything that might be of use to anyone else. Though we're really splitting hairs here, basically the image looks lovely and everything is working great since the kernel XHCI bug was patched. |
