stefano85 Wrote:hi guys, here i have the same problem as boba23, i have followed this guide and i have stutter if i set enable to "allow flipping" option in nvidia settings.anyway i see it only in 24/23.976 hz movie. Also the problem is that if i set it off when see a movie without black bars (totally fullscreen) i notice a tearing problem in upside screen always in the same point. maybe a problem with "allow flipping" disabled, but at least there's no more little stutter every 1-2 minutes. sorry for the bad english, hope there's a solution to this.
i have ubuntu 9.10 32bit with nvidia 195.36.15, asrock ion 330 pro (via HDMI) xbmc last svn, samsung 40 b7000 led tv correctly configured in xorg.conf.

But I have a question/problem: Is it normal, that I'm not able to change my appearance settings in Ubuntu? I can only choose "None", but not "Normal" or (I guess, because I have a german Ubuntu installed) "Extended". Ubuntu searches for drivers if I select an other setting, but finally I only get an error message.

Although it is a 720p screen it accepts 1080p input, and although not documented does accept 1080p and 24fps this test states that it does accept this signal: http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/Panasonic-TX32LXD700/

Running XBMC-Live (xbmc-live-freak v13) on Foxconn NetBox 330i which has the Intel Atom processor and the Nvidia ION GPU)

I've had to setup modelines to even have 1080p and 24fps available, but still getting bad stuttering even with this guide.

I'd appreciate any advice - links to xorg.conf and xbmc.log below:

Thanks!

nbennett1970 Wrote:Hi Furii - thanks for your comments. A good question! I'm really trying to force 24fps which I think I can only do at 1080p - assumption from the hdtvtest is that the TV will be better at down-scaling than letting XBMC / Ion do this (as the TV can display at 120Hz [a multiple of 24] then no pull-down should be required also). My theory is that if the TV can show blu-ray from a player with zero judder/stutter it should be able to do the same from a blu-ray rip on xbmc - i hope!

furii Wrote:did you read that you can't do 720p@24p somewhere? as far as i know 24p is just the frame rate at which the video is displayed and isn't related to the resolution. i know that article said something about playing back 1080p video at 24p without converting to 60hz, but i don't really see a reason why it would be forced to play at 60hz unless the ps3 sets it as such.

have you tried running jumjum's script without making your own modifications to the xorg.conf? that should give you the best results. also you need to add <loglevel>1</loglevel> to your advancedsettings.xml to get a proper debug log.

after doing a bit of browsing it doesn't seem your tv actually has a 24p mode: http://community.whathifi.com/forums/p/35546/36032.aspx#36032
double edit: from the user manual it clearly states that the only display mode for 720p is 60p or 50p. therefor 24p content you have will be subject to 3:2 pulldown.
