Hi Guys,

I am a complete newbie for XBMC

I have recently bought a Dell Studio 1749, specs below.
Installed: xbmc-r33778-Dharma_beta2.exe (I have tried also the Camelot version, same problem)

The issue that I am having is that when I connect my TV (Philips 47PFL/8404) with HDMI and set my laptop to output projector the screen gets a green overlay. This happens randomly in time, sometimes the screen is perfect for 1 hour, the it will happen after 10 min.
It can be restored by switching displays (back to Monitor to Projector output again) and everything is fine again.

I have installed the latest drivers for my graphic card.

Any ideas what steps to take to solve the problem?
Duplicate monitor does not work because the TV has a higher resolution than my laptop screen. In a windowed XBMC I still see the 'windowbars'

SPECS:
Processor: Intel i5-450M(2.4GHz) Mobile CPU
Display: 17.3in High Definition+ (1600X900) LED with TrueLife
Memory : 4096MB (2x2048) 1067MHz DDR3 Dual Channel
Hard Drive : 1TB (2x500GB) Serial ATA (7200RPM) Dual HDD
Optical Drive : 8X DVD+/-RW Drive including Roxio Burn software
Graphics : 1 GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650
Wireless : Dell Wireless 1520 (802.11n) Half Mini Card
Operating System : English Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium (64 BIT)

Tnx, for your help

Bump, anyone any idea

I love XBMC very much but this way I can't watch a movie without switching 3x from display output.

SOLVED

Found it in a Dutch Forum, got to check it myself later today:

HDMI Probleem HD5770 - Philips 32" - Videokaarten & Beeldschermen - GoT


-Go to ati ccc (catalyst control center)
-drop down 'Graphics' -> 'Dekstops & Displays' -> 'Pixel Format'
-Set the pixel format to: 'RGB 4:4:4 Pixel Format PC Standard (Full RGB)'
-click apply, Display should be disturbed (green)
- restart TV, problem solved..(stays away)


When in CCC with Desktops and Displays lowest screen, click on the black triangle (upper right screen)
After the click you can select Configure, there you can find this option
