Hi all.

I'm testing this build in an iPad 3 IOS 5.1.1 and have differents results.
Using this file http://pastebin.com/X5yHRvXa goes ok, but if I use this one http://pastebin.com/b9zukTBT it stutters.
Also, if I put the movie in original size, the first file shows a very small image and the second shows the correct image size.

Let me know if you need more information or test

The second file is interlaced . This file is not accepted by the hw decoder and has to be decoded and deinterlaced in software which is too much for the cpu.

Please when posting results from my build try to check the test files with the latest nightlies (which don't have my changes) before for ruling out general problems.

As for the database stuff - it just seems that the db update from eden to frodo failed - thats not special to my build but a generic issue i guess (we will ensure that db updates will work from eden to frodo before frodo gets released of course).

Thx for testing - i appreciate it Smile

Thanks Memphiz. Good to know. Is there a way to clean everything up and start anew? ie. how about if I remove Eden and install nightly build I will get the new db, and then use you deb to update it to get 1080p? I use separate nfo files so I could just rescan any time.

cool thx - you should revisit your point 2 in the review. HDMI output is supported and should even work in 1080p (xbmc will show the attached tv as a second screen in settings->system->video and you can switch to fullscreen #2). You have to get rid off any thirdparty tvout enablers from cydia though. See our ios faq which mentions possible output options too.

Is frodo beta 2 different than the link you posted Memphiz? Or, are these changes implemented somehow? Just wondering

Nope these changes need some more work (tearing problems as reported by some testers here) and i will continue working on it after Frodo release. So this improvement will not be part of Frodo (because it needs iOS 5.1 SDK which will make XBMC incompatible to all iOS 4.2 devices which we didn't want to do for Frodo).

A little late back to the party, but as one of the original grumblers, the test build works great for my 1080p content. w00t!
