Login at Kodi Home

Be careful:

ModeLine "1920x1080_24" 74.250 1920 2558 2602 2750 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync
ModeLine "1920x1080_23.976" 74.175 1920 2558 2602 2750 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync

Those work, as I used them myself before.

We need the output of DISPLAY=:0 /usr/lib/kodi/kodi-xrandr | pastebinit

then one can exactly say which modes you got: 24 * 1000 / 1001

Fritsch, currently Ubuntu is installed.
Libcec from PPA done
Busy with Bluray.
Kodi cloned, need a reboot first. Think another hour before I have it running again.

Will pastebinit when I first get a screen.

If you build from source, it's in /usr/local/lib ...

I know, I already made a pastebinit earlier from DISPLAY=:0 /usr/lib/kodi/kodi-xrandr | pastebinit
See this one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11729881/

Yeah, the modes that you wanted to add are not in there ... so make sure to post another one after you think xorg.conf would be fixed.

Is kodi-xrandr displaying the modes the screen can display (with as boundary the GPU, since an ION2 cannot do 4K)
(Just a tool to test to see what is supported?)

**fritsch** · 2015-06-18, 14:03

It tells the modes the xserver is able to switch to.

tudstudent · 2015-06-18, 14:09

I never used xrandr, so quite new to me. But does it look to xorg and tests whether or not they can be used or does it read the GPU modes, or does it read the screen modes (samsung tv)

Btw, compiling for the first time does take a bit longer than expected...

**wsnipex** · 2015-06-18, 14:17

it asks the X server.

This is the xrandr after the reinstall:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/11735905/

Based on a standard nvidia-xconfig.

Is it the idea to do the same with the new xorg file?
(Again sorry, but this is something I have never used!)

**fritsch** · 2015-06-18, 17:41

Exactly ...

Okey, I have them:

htpc01@htpc01:/etc/init.d$ DISPLAY=:0 /usr/local/lib/kodi/kodi-xrandr | pastebinit
http://paste.ubuntu.com/11736209/

AND:

htpc01@htpc01:/etc/init.d$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit
http://paste.ubuntu.com/11736213/

First I would like to fix the xorg, before I will create another log.

Now you have too much of them in - while it's looking okay.

Remove all the custom lines and only add:

Code:
ModeLine "1920x1080_24" 74.250 1920 2558 2602 2750 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync

ModeLine "1920x1080_23.976" 74.175 1920 2558 2602 2750 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync

Then change:

Code:
Modes      "1920x1080_23.976" "1920x1080_24" "1920x1080_25" "1920x1080_60"

to:

Code:
Modes      "1920x1080_23.976" "1920x1080_24"

in your xorg.conf

the rest is coming from your edid byself.

Why the 24 variant?
With which I mean how do you see from xrandr output that these are the ones?

Editted versions:
htpc01@htpc01:~/Download/Kodi/xbmc$ DISPLAY=:0 /usr/local/lib/kodi/kodi-xrandr | pastebinit
http://paste.ubuntu.com/11736420/
htpc01@htpc01:~/Download/Kodi/xbmc$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit

European blurays: 24 hz
American blurays: 23.976 hz

you need both.
