hi fritsch,
here is my setup:
GPU set to 0-255
Kodi to 16-235 ( Prefer VAAPI Render off )
TV 16-235
i was just wondering, if using VAAPI-MCDI as deinterlace method will break my chain, since it will call vaapi render while playing interlaced and progressive contents?
thank you!

MCDI forces vaapi render which does not honor the limited range setting. It has no influence on progressive content.

So if you are dependend on 16 to 235 range _and_ MCDI, the only chance you currently have is setting the GPU to Limited Range and keep the "Limited Range" setting disabled.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

since leaving gpu at defaut range which is limited btw, and kodi to full will produce some visible banding and colors level saturation, i think my only option is sticking to my current setting and use yadif deinterlacer.
thanks alot guys!
keep up the great work.

I have some question.
My setup at the moment is:
- Intel NUC D34010WYK
- Panasonic ZT60
- Kodibuntu 14.0 RC3
The problem is, a can see a lot of banding and i don't know how i can fix this problem.
Which settings (RGB Range at all devices) are the correct one for my setup?
I'm a beginner in this and i hope you can help me.

# DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI2 --set "Broadcast RGB" Full
Maybe I am missing the point / some script sets different, but AFAICS Full is the default setting for the driver.

nope, sadly not. Intel most of the time sets Limited.

Oh OK, was just going by what man intel said.
Can't say my TV looks wrong, but then I haven't put a ramp on it + you say mostly + I am testing bay trail with input swapping with an xbox so I didn't set the TV up like I am used to seeing from my main PC (game mode vs thx).

Doesn't the Intel driver try and be intelligent and default to Limited when driving HDTV Resolutions (i.e. 1920x1080, 1280x720) and Full when driving PC resolutions (1024x768, 1440x900 etc.)?
Personally I want the end result to be Limited range as my XBMC boxes are routed through AV Amps, and the other inputs feeding them (satellite receivers, DVD / Blu-ray players etc.) are all outputting 16-235 Limited range content (and all the source material I watch - TV, DVD, Blu-ray etc. - is delivered 16-235)

Yeah, no bad reports on default LTS, keep it. Make sure it's fully uptodate though.
