Oh I see, Ill have to try that with rebase (I thought the changes were lost if pulling newer code in). I compile already so quite familiar with the how to compile. Though I know nothing how git works.

thx

why rebase? just build fernetmentas tree....

@wsnipex & @fritsch

Thanks, I've set up everything in XBMC according to your (and uNiversals) instructions.

I downloaded the improved xorg.conf. I would love a tweaked version specific to my setup. My Xorg.0.log is 800k large though, and pastebin doesn't allow pastes that big. Any other way I can get you the file, or can you tell me what information you need? Thanks!

Edit: Looked at the file and guessed you need the ModePool data, here it is: http://pastebin.com/yKDc35UL ... let me know if you need more from the log!

Ya I need the xorg.0.log for complete information, use dropbox or mediafire for larger files that pastebin cant handle.

The modepool gives me general unspecific information really not helpful for what I need. The tweaks I'm applying like correct HorizSync and VertRefresh + modelines + DFP specific information for your setup/tv can only be found in xorg.0.log

How's your setup fairing with that xorg from the how to and 23.976p - 24p playback so far?

How else do you get the current code into xbmc? Thers plenty bug fixes now specially since xbmc is in feature freeze, and I doubt any fernets stuff is going to be added to frodo, honestly I dont feel like waiting another year.

OK, here's a link to the complete log: xorg.txt.

Only done a little bit of testing so far, 1920x1080 / 23.976 movies seem to play fine. Not sure what an acceptable drop number is (or if it's relevant here).

Hello back

Drop frames depend on amount, and because the xorg defines a horizontal vertical refresh values that didn't match your setup this could get the modelines for 23/24p thrown out, I have now corrected that so check and report.

I added a 1920x1080_60 modeline but it is commented out, you can test it by removing the hash # before it and restarting X.

I will presume you know what to do with a pastebin of the xorg WHich is only for your system.

I wouldn't mind seeing another xorg.0.log after the changes just to see if there's any warning or modelines being thrown out. You can remove the old one.

@tech242:
While a movie is playing, do via ssh, with the same user running xbmc:

@Universal:
Please check the commits, that are in fernetmenta github master branch, go to page 2, of them - you will find the mainline commits. This branch is not static, it is rebased on master every two days (https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/comm...ter?page=2)

OK, tried the new xorg.conf and in GUI I can only select 1920x1080@50hz. Doesn't matter if the 60hz line is uncommented or not.

Here's the output of the command fritsch told me to run: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1326443/

And here's the Xorg.0.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1326453/

50Hz is fine for GUI

As for the output for fritsch you have to run that command WHILE playing a 23p file and rinse and repeat again while playing a 24p file

It seems that your receiver doesn't like non interlaced modelines and is throwing the overrides out including 23/24p because of refresh rates.

Perhaps this will help http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=65nfSwZU (this corrects a typo and includes a modeline for 50Hz

Admittedly I have no experience with receivers only tv's and am following this topic for how to pimp the xorg and using the 23/24p modelines that were made available via advice from fritsch.

Perhaps fritsch can have a look at the log and the xorg.conf and maybe see something I dont.

Ive commented out #Option "ExactModeTimingsDVI" "True" to see if this laxes the erros that make the modes invalid

the errors that make the modes invalid

Alright, I grabbed the latest version of the conf file, will test it a bit during the weekend and report back on Monday. Thanks so much for your help so far!

Grab the conf again I fixed a error, sorry. http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=65nfSwZU

Great work on the script Bram!

Does the script install TVHeadEnd? How hard would this be to set up?

It is already included.

Can it be set up from within XBMC??

the whole purpose of that script is to get xbmc set up properly everything else are addons.
