Resolution resets to 320x175 @ 85.00HZ when selecting non default resolution
#1
First of all my setup:

My HTPC with MSI P7NGM-Digital mainboard (GeForce 9300) is connected to my Onkyo TX-SR 605 with a HDMI cable. The Onkyo TX-SR 605 is connected to my Panasonic TH-42PX80 with a HDMI cable. Although the Panasonic is an HD-Ready television, it accepts 1080p24Hz.

When I'm using XBMC 9.10 and XBMC 9.11 Alpha 2 (not with Alpha 1), XBMC sets the resolution to 1080i24. I can select 1080p @ 24Hz. When I do this the resolution is successfully set to 1080p @ 24Hz. But the setting is acually set to 320x175 @ 85.00HZ. So when I reboot, XBMC returns with 320x175 @ 85.00HZ as resolution. Basically I can only use the default (1080i24) resolution. Any other resolution won't be remembered. When I install Alpha 1 the default setting is set to 1080p24. In Alpha 1 I can also select different resolutions.

Strangely enough, my TV says he gets 1080p from XBMC, eventhough the resolution in XBMC is set to 1080i24.

This is the xorg.conf I'm using:

I hope someone can help me.

Thx for pointing me to that topic. But there's no solution there.

Read my posts in that thread - I offer a potential solution.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

It will ONLY have a problem if you change it to something other than the desktop resolution.

Why not just change the desktop resolution and be done with it?

I have set up a minimal XBMC version using this tutorial. So I'm not sure I can change the Desktop resolution.

I don't know how to install such a fix.

But maybe I have to continue this conversation in that other thread.
