UglyBob Wrote:Hi!

I have a question that might be slightly off topic, but anyway... I tried playing a full bluray backup this weekend by playing the m2ts-file. Worked fine.. But I have some small judder every few seconds. I don't know, but it doesn't seem to be judder from incorrect frame rate or something like that. It's just not smooth and it is easily seen when the camera moves. It's smooth for 2-3 seconds, then a small judder and smooth againg. So I'm just wondering, are these ION-systems supposed to be powerful enough to decode full blurays? And if so, any ideas of what to check/configure for this to work?

Btw;

I created two new livecd's built against svn:

http://www.xbmcfreak.nl/en/xbmcfreak-svn-versie-27017/
http://www.xbmcfreak.nl/en/xbmcfreak-live-svn-versie-27338/

The latest one also includes the broadcom crystal hd drivers!

Confused?

So these are just "Live CDs which are with latest XBMC version?"
Or are these LiveCDs also ION optimized?

Hello. I installed this version and am trying to solve some choppy video playback issues on my Revo 1600. I was going to mess around with the xorg.conf file, but I don't seem to have one in my /etc/X11/ directory. What am I missing?

That's correct. The xbmc version isn't upgraded. Only the pieces around it.

erhnam great work on this custom build.

I have a suggestion though you may have kept this out for reasons I'm not aware off anyhow the method to enable 24Hz support whereby you add Option "DynamicTwinView" "false" to the screen subsection of xorg.conf is that possible to include out of the box so to speak.

Not only does it enable 1080p@24Hz but it also opens up other resolutions that are otherwise not detected, for example my TV under XBMC Live defaults to 1080p@50Hz but with the fix I can use 1080p@60Hz or 1080p@24Hz. There are officially supported by the TV and other devices detect these resolutions but for some reason XBMC doesn't.

Its possible my TVs are just a special case but I had to do this for a Panasonic Plasma and Philips LCD.

Yes, my next version will include a customized xorg.conf Smile
