RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - paske - 2015-10-24 (2015-10-23, 11:24)Ogreen Wrote: Hello, I have exactly the same here ! The only difference is that I didn't try another version of Kodi, It was a fresh install of 15.2 on a brand new Shield... Any ideas somebody ?

All other videos with 50hz or 60hz turn off the 23.976 feature.

Haven't tried that yet.. update: just check the autoframe rate in Kodi 15.2 Minor issue in 25hz and 29.97hz files is doing 2:2 pulldown. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - wrxtasy - 2015-10-24 @ couto, Please explain in simple terms what 2:2 pulldown actually is please ? RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - noggin - 2015-10-24 (2015-10-24, 16:24)wrxtasy Wrote: @ couto, Please explain in simple terms what 2:2 pulldown actually is please ? 2:2 pulldown is where 25p or 29.97p content is shown at 50Hz (either i or p) or 59.94Hz respectively. It means each source frame is displayed twice. 25p content broadcast 50i or 50p is broadcast using 2:2 pulldown. It's how movies are usually shown in 50Hz territories, where the 24.000/23.976p source is sped up to 25p and then 2:2 pulled down to 50i/p (Pull-down dates back to the claw in a film projector or telecine that 'pulled down' the film frame) (These days, in interlaced systems, both 50i fields within a 50i frame should be sourced from the same 25p frame. However back in the day this wasn't always the case, so you can end up with 'out of phase' 2:2 pulldown where every 50i frame contains fields from two different frames. This is particularly an issue with 70s and 80s TV shows which mixed film inserts with video studio content, as the film telecine was often played in live to the recording or transmission, and in some cases was in phase for some inserts and out of phase for others. A non-issue for interlaced displays - but more of an issue for progressive...) Compare 2:2 with 3:2 pulldown. 3:2 pulldown is where 23.976/24.000p content is shown at 59.94/60.00Hz. One frame is shown for 3 fields/frames, the next for just two fields/frames. Motion rendition with 3:2 is distorted, whereas with 2:2 it is smoother. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - Buckster - 2015-10-24 might well be Placebo but tried acceleration on/off in Kodi and though PQ was possibly slightly better software decoding only ? RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - wrxtasy - 2015-10-24 @ noggin, or @couto, I remember reading here that the Shield seems to be missing a 59.94Hz Auto selection. So if 2:2 pulldown is occurring for 29.97fps video (59.94), what is someone likely to see or hear ? RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - Martijn - 2015-10-24 Mine has 59.94 I posted a full list of what it reported on my TV some where in this thread We also changed to surface rendering from today's nightly so perhaps that will also improve PQ as it's now zero copy RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - drhill - 2015-10-24 I think he means the global setting. So it runs at 60.00hz but can switch to 59.94 if the program asks as Kodi does. Shame as the Live Channels app doesn't switch refresh rates when loaded. I'd rather the default be 59.94 for me.

I'm not being impatient, just an FYI for others on the board. Just like I reported here and in its own thread some one broke titan skin's plexbmc smart shortcuts for movies, but nothing else, bank on the 8th.

Otherwise you would have to output 60i/p and either slightly speed-up replay (and resample audio) or repeat frames (to keep audio in sync).

They are surely more motivated than me to ensure VC1 is working on SATV |
