Right.

Ok i hope this can be solved in the future, and since Mini x have solved this with help from Amlogic on there mini x8 i guess there is hope.

Here is the information for two movies. May be a few transcription errors.

Inglorious Basterds (Blu-Ray)

Both seemed to play fine without jaggies, combing, dropped frames, etc. -- although, admittedly, these two movies aren't action-packed by any stretch and I only played short excerpts. There is a thread in the ODROID forum that details poor playback in Kodi, but I am not seeing it at first glance on my setup.

My use case for this computer is ATSC over-the-air broadcast TV, which is mostly MPEG-2 720p or 1080i, using Kodi and HDHomerun. I had trouble installing the HDHomerun apps, so am at a stopping point with regard to 720p and 1080i MPEG-2 material.

For some reasons it has problem detecting the modes on my monitor so will have tro try it on the tv later(Only detects 1280xSomething when its supports up to 2560 x 1440).

Try editing boot.ini to set the video output by hand. That worked for me.

Jupp, found it right after i posted, this is a impressive little machine.
Got 2 units so are going to some android and linux tests.

refresh rate seems a little iffy, need to test it more on a setup i know works perfect.

Apperently a known bug, expected bug fix soon according to hardkernel.

In the first video, I don't know what deinterlacing is occurring, but there are no jaggies or combing. Perhaps it is simply using a bob algorithm. Or maybe my TV is deinterlacing? Don't know if that's possible. In any event, the first video looked pretty sharp, which doesn't seem consistent with bob.

Unknown why the first core is more or less pegged on these two programs. Is decoding the audio that laborious? The multiple cores are coming in handy.

It would be very unusual for a TV to deinterlace something sent to it in a progressive format. If you send TV 1080p60 the deinterlacer should be disabled.

Has OpenElec team already decided if they will support this device?

Their adding support for the amlogic s805 chip so probally.

No one is working on it yet as far as we know. See http://openelec.tv/forum/90-miscellaneous/73147-openelec-for-amlogic-s805-quad-core-stb

gda added a comment there 3-days ago saying "There are always so many people that want to test, but so few that really want to do the Job. Some days ago I started a port of OpenELEC for the Odroid C1, but "testers" would generate only additional workload, and are seldom helpful. Currently this task is on hold because it is more fun to do something for the Wetek Play."
