I tried connecting directly to the TV, but sadly no positive result on that either.

Very strange as the same setup is jitterless on your projector.
Are you sure the same problem is not appearing with that display?

If yes, than it really has to be becasue XBMC not seeing the available resolution/refresh rates in case of the Kuro for some reason.

Maybe you can try to define modelines manually.

I have a similiar problem on my Sony Bravia W4500.

Yepp, there is no problem if i plug the PJ thru the HDMI output on the amp/receiver instead of the TV.

And i have absolutely no idea how to make my own modelines. I'm a complete linux noob.

There is a howto for X and modelines here (using xvidtune): http://howto-pages.org/ModeLines/

For an example of a resulting Xorg.conf for Myth: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Vizio_VX37L

That's too deep for me

It worked! Finally...i can't tell you how much of a relief that is. Thank you very much. I've been messing around so much with the XBMC install now that i think im gonna do a clean install and set it up properly now from the beginning.

Again, thank you.

The wierd thing is if i use those modelines, i get 1080P@25 , @50 and @60.

And i still get 50Hz on every video when using adjust refresh rate. Planet earth in HD is 24fps right? But i got rid of most of the jittering, now i just notice it on some videos. Planet Earth episode 1 for example in the beginning when the go by a mountain, a waterfall and finally the birds.

Big thanks to olympia for posting the modelines!

I am glad that you worked out...
Please note, that you have some line break issues in the quote of xorg.conf....

I noticed that, hehe.

Anyways. Is there any reason that the @23.976hz option doesn't show up as an option in XBMC?

I did a fresh minimal ubuntu install, then XBMC etc (and learned some linux in the process ) last night. I also installed the latest Nvidia drivers from nvidia.com. I'm running 1920x1080@24hz now and there is no jagging etc when the camera pans or people moving across the screen etc. I did however notice that there was some lagging in certain scenes (almost like the CPU had trouble coping with the load). But i went into the video settings and disabled the adjust refresh rate bit, which then seemed to solve the problem.

Also, i tried starting a DVD ISO (while having adjust refresh rate enabled) and XBMC just went back to the main menu when trying to start it. Disabling auto adjust fixed this as well.

Any thoughts on that?
