[Milhouse]

@Milhouse or @fritsch did you see my issue?

Seems like either the 8bit patch or the ffmpeg bump in http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2403575 caused some problem with my NUC.

No one else with NUC have issues with builds from #0828 and later?

Could you explain what your problem is? Your only description of the problem so far is "video playback not work for me anymore." which isn't terribly helpful (though thanks for identifying the first build, that's always good information).

[_Spook_]

Sorry. It seems that the signal doesn't sync up anymore. I get "no signal" on the TV once I start a video, any video. When I hit stop the GUI signal syncs up again with the TV.

[Milhouse]

OK I'll drop the Chris Wilson patch from tonight's build - if you still have a problem then the only other likely candidate is ffmpeg 3.1.3.

[_Spook_]

Thanks. Will report back once I have tested the new build.

@fritsch
Earlier in this thread you stated:

The SNB has a hardwarebug, it cannot sync to 23.976 hz correctly. What you can try to do:

Force the output to 24.0 hz (not the 23.976 one) and enable Sync Playback to Display additionally. This will "speed up" the movie to 24 fps and resample audio accordingly.

Would you be so kind as to clarify for me...

1) ALL Sandy Bridge chipsets suffer the hardware bug, no matter the vendor, including my Intel 847 NUC: T or F ?

2) What advancedsettings parameters can be used to minimize the effect of this bug for 24 fps video, and yet not impact material at other framerates ?

Thanks again for advice - and all you contribute to making Kodi great

FYI: no such problem with my (ancient) 847 NUC > Samsung PN51E6500 TV (using #0830 build last night).

I have a NUC6i7KYK and run 4k@60Hz GUI so it has to change resolution/upscale when I start a video. So something in there might cause a problem. I will play around with the resolutions and see if changing the GUI resolution to 1080p@60Hz changes anything.

[fritsch]

1) yes
2) wiki please

We never change resolution downwards. So it will only change refreshrate for you.

Ok. Doesn't work to change the resolution for the GUI anyways. Stuck on 4k@60Hz. Looses signal if I change to any other resolution.

Sorry pals,
I am not a newbie, but I cannot install Milhouse's dev release.

I installed a brand new Libreelec installation on my raspberry pi 3
I created a update folder under /storage (that is home for rpi3)
I put .tar into update via scp
then rebooted

nothing happens, what did I do wrong?

thanks in advance for your help

[Milhouse]

A) The folder is called .update (the full stop is part of the name) and shouldn't need creating
B) This is the X86_64 thread...

[lagigia]

oops I'm very sorry...

So with #0902 on NUC I3 haswell I have bunch of dropped frames on 29.97 videos. It looks like the Chris Wilson 8bpc patch is what changed playback for me.

log in case needed: http://sprunge.us/OPNF

Milhouse is this patch bad for other users or there is a better fix in the works?
