Hi, I've been using and following XBMC for quite a while, and using XBMC(Win) in my living room. -All my family members are very happy with XBMC, and esp my daughter using some of the video-plugins for watching TV-shows she have missed.
...Why the long story? Because I belive this is exacly what XBMC is meant to be, an entertainment centre - am I right?
In my eyes there is one pretty important feature missing in video setting that allows to set up all the video-modes(resolution and refresh-rate) I wanne allow XBMC to auto-switch into when starting a new video.
This is because all modern TVs today have many resoultion/refresh-rate possebilities, but just a few meant for movie. -On my Samsung 7070 LED there are 1080p/720p running either 24, 25, 49 or 50Hz that gives me movie-mode(100Hz, vivid colors, extra options etc) on the TV. If the TV switches to 30/60Hz (or none 720p/1080p), the TV does not run in movie-mode anymore.
...Im sure lots of you know what Im saying here.
-Please, an enable/disable list of video/refresh-rate modes that XBMC would autoswitch into when playback of video would be great.
...any thoughts?
