Eden does not save my settings - CosyCat - 2012-01-10

Eden does not save my Video Calibration settings after restart.

I use Video Calibration to fix overscan on 1366x778 tv.

Check file permissions of ~/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/guisettings.xml - maybe XBMC can't write to that file?

xbmc saves all my other settings its only "video calibration"
yes I have read and write on guisettings.xml

1 delete my userdata folder
2 set up my settings like sound and timezone, shares........ in xbmc like I want it
3 it saves everything except "video calibration"

I tried to edit guisettings.xml by hand to fix overscan just to see if it saves my changes after restart and to my suprise it worked.
So "video calibrating" lose it´s settings after restart when set in gui and not by typing in values in guisettings.xml.
Anyone other then me having this problem or can confirm this?

edit: hmm? ...it´s two places to edit the same resolution (even after I deleted guisettings.xml)

like this



<resolution>
<description>1280x800 @ 60.00 - Full Screen</description>
<subtitles>772</subtitles>
<pixelratio>1.000000</pixelratio>
<overscan>
<left>0</left>
<top>0</top>
<right>1280</right>
<bottom>800</bottom>
</overscan>
</resolution>

For what its worth I have the same issues, just calibration knocked out on restart.

Look forward to an update.

It is still affecting me and I have the final release of Eden 11.0. I have set the guisettings.xml file to read/write for all users.

Any ideas..?
