Yes, that's a good idea!

Are there any reports of other televisions/monitors with similar "minor" errors?

Because at the set's native 4K resolution, the calculated error grows to 2 pixels too narrow. And to make it more fun, the stated 4096x2160 pixel aspect results in a screen 2 pixels too wide! Can't imagine what Sony was thinking.......

I will test at home first.

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5922 This fixes the issue. I tested it with 1.000512 as hard pixel ratio.

Fritsch....

If I want look into my logfile (I know where to look for), does it matter if a AVR is between the HTPC and the monitor? The log reports the AVR as HDMI device and I have plugged a Pj and a TV on it. Should there be different infos in the log then or should I test by plugging the HTPC directly to the displaying devices to get proper info?

Check for us if there is a difference :-)

ok, will do

Just for the note...

If your AVR doesn´t touch the signal, it reports back the same pixel ratio as your TV/Pj.

I got a funny little bug...selfmade, by a splitter that I use, because my AVR has only one HDMI out. This splitter changes the pixel ration form 1.000239 to 1.000658. The first is that, what the TV reports if I plug my HTPC directly to the TV. After I disconnected the splitter, the AVR reports the same as the TV.

So..no difference anymore. Only thing is, that the TV supports not a 1.0000 pixel ratio. But I don´t see any issue. Maybe I will test more if I will find the time.
