Ok so I'm obsessively working on this at the moment, and yes I think I'm progressing here.
Your idea about a codec issue really go me thinking so I tried 1080p xbmc again. The more likely fact that I switched of lanczos3optimized, means that I can play my canon files (45mbps h.264) and a bad ass Avatar rip no problem.
Quote:we need mediainfo for the files and some more experienced mythtv/xbmc devs to see what's going on there.
If anyone wants to take a look that file is basically what I'm struggling with here.
Been using xbmc for a while, and it took a while for the hdpvr mythtv files to play correctly, and there were some regressions from time to time. Recent releases were solid though, and I don;t even install mythfrontend anymore.
There seems to be a thread about pc:none

Don't want to hijack the thread though. Appreciate you taking the time to peek though
Basically, I think the main culprit was using scaling options, the xbmc home screen is smoother at 720p than 1080p but it's definately good enough.
That mythtv stuff is perplexing though, @
720p xbmc that 720p@60fps play at 60fps but it skips a frame ever 1 or 2 seconds, but @1080p playback tops out at 48ish frames a second.
