Another bug.
Option "Adjust display refresh rate to match video" not working. Xbmc ALWAYS change refresh rate, even this option is unchecked.

HI,
I went from R12006 to r12031, in 12006 I had good playback of video over SMB share hard wired but in 12031 I get some pausing around 30 mins into the video. After around 10 seconds the video starts again and carrys on playing. I have changed my SD card in the process of updating but dont think this would have any inpact on video play back, the video was a mkv h264 (1.46gb size) with ac3 sound all setting are the same. Apart from this problem the latest build seems much more responsive this could be down to the SD card change class 4 to class 10.

i have updated to build r12039, the pi boots up at 1080p then xbmc starts a 640x480... i went and changed to 1080p in the system and now when it starts it only show the 1st quarter of the screen at 640x480....
Edit: After a few tries i managed to get it working. but this scaling thing is messy to configure , depending on the resolution of the video i need to go and reconfigure again...
Also the toggle change refresh rate according to the video does't do anything , it is always on...
i ended using hdmi_mode=4 to just stick to 720p

Confirming the above - I just booted r12039 with a freshly imaged SD card, and the 640x480 resolution on first start problem has returned.

That was a lot of code changes...
You can update to that commit creating the driver tarball using mkpkg_bcm2835-driver and updating the meta file for that package.

12039 tried 720 to 1080 like a hundred times and nothing. 1080 just goes to 640x480. tried a few hdmi modes with no success.
