Doesn't make sense why. If they scale to 1080p and VidOn has to send a 1080p signal out, why not just render as native 1080p? Hopefully Wolly can explain, or if it's intentional, hopefully it's temporary until a later VidOn XBMC Gotham build is out.

Edit: I'm going to try this and compare vs. my Mede8er and Chromebox.

Framerate isn't adapted for BD tracks with the following format: MPEG2 720x576 25fps.
Well I am not sure, It seems FullHD but on my little 40" screen I can exactly tell, it looks good.
When I have time I will put the Vidon behind my FullHD 3D projector. If the image is not sharp enough and up-scaled I should be able to tell the difference on a 90" screen compared with a Blu-Ray player or Mede8er.

That a good find and easy to test. Thanks.

You can notice this when playing half sbs / half over under movies , they look like SD ( dvd quality ) instead of HD

normal videos , 2D FullHD and HD looks the same

FullHD looks like half-sbs / half over under movies played directly on my tv internal dnla

I didnt notice this on my 24 inch monitor but yes did notice on my 46 inch tv

I finished now watching a 3D BD iso , guardians of the galaxy , total dropped frames 890 , audio was not in sync , adjusted the audio ofset to 0.075 ms , subtitles always start no matter how meny times i set them to be off

The same problematic hdmi cable works fine with my samsung 3DBD player , and computer , but not with vidon box

I have tried 3 different hdmi cable. Shortest was 0,75m. No difference, still 2D only. I have ordered a 0,5m cable now. I will try on Monday, but I don't think it's an issue with the hdmi cable.

I did the 1080p test above (Koying posted this in the Android section), and the pattern looks just about the same via my VidOn and PS3. I went back and forth several times, and no blurriness on either. Does this confirm VidOn is actually playing 1080p in 1080p (vs. upscaled 720p)? No idea.

Vidon true 1080p

Image
I don't think VidOn Box upscale 720p to 1080p, we keep the right of explanation.
Tomorrow, on Monday, I will discuss this matter with our developers and then back here give you a detailed explanation.
I believe we provide the true 1080p when playing 1080p movies.
Thanks for your support!

Oh, Trigu75
What about VMC? We hope you can test a 1080p movie with VMC 0.0.1.4 to see if the resolution of the picture is the true 1080p.
Thank you!

How to:
VMC 0.0.1.4 added the File Management, you can view you media source via NFS or SMB in the File Management and when you play a movie, you can choose the main title or show blu-ray menu.
When Gotham XBMC will be completely supported by Vidon remote app? Currently most buttons don't work after playback was started.

Can the problem that subtitels are activated by default and deactivated subtitles can't be set/stored as default solved in short time? It is really hard to deactivate subtitles any time.

Oh really? There are two keyboards in the app, one is for blu-ray movie that means only when you play a blu-ray iso, all the keys will work.

I think it could be fixed in a short time if it is a real bug, I will report this to our developers first.
Wolly , the pictures are from xbmc 0.0.0.3 ( gotham 13.2 )

Vmc is xbmc with your modded skin ( gotham 13.2 )

Cmdr.adama , on IOS , install xbmcremote , that's what i use and works great with both vmc and xbmc

All the playback control buttons like play, pause, skip chapter, audio, subtitile, ... don't work with Gotham. With Vidon XBMC 1.1.0.2 they are working.

I think it is a real bug because this function works on my PC using Gotham XBMC.

I didn't try xbmcremote yet. I am currently using YATSE to control XBMC.

I have tested the isos in vmc as well. Although I set the player to 3D the videos are played in 2D.
Another bug

When the movie credits finish,it doesn't automatically return to XBMC and there no getting back to XBMC unless you press on the Home button the relaunch XBMC again.

Tested it too and compared it with my HTPC. No blurriness. So this tells me the Vidon is NOT upscaling. Al least not in my setup.
