Hi guys!
Since I bought a new 24Hz compatible projector in January I've been struggling with getting perfect 24Hz playback on my Asrock, but with no luck. I've come to the point that I wonder if it is impossible and if the only reasons people here likes the ION-systems as XBMC machines is that either they don't play that much high bitrate material or they are just fanboys.
I have followed every guide I could find, tried different versions of xbmc and the best result I could get is judder free playback with an occasional stutter here and there. And this is if I play high bitrate mkv files, if I play blu-ray rips I see small stuttering all the time. So after 3 months of writing xorg.conf and testing all possible xbmc options, I'm getting really fed up. My old popcorn hour did a much better work, starting to regret I ever sold it. Is it really possible to get PERFECT playback using the Asrock and I mean perfect, smooth, stutter and judder free playback on high bitrate material? Or do I need a better nvidia chipset? Or perhaps the new Broadcom Crystal HD?
