Confirming this behaviour in r12089. GUI is configured for 1080p@60.

Thumbnails (eg. box art) are squashed to appear square rather than rectangular (1000x1500) as they should be, and video is zoomed (eg. Normal Sizing (1788,1080) -> (1192,720), switch to Original and the video is zoomed).

I've tested this with a fresh image install, no guisettings.xml etc.

Still dying on me, I get error along the lines of;

"Error in mount_disks: mount_common: Could not mount /dev/mmcblk0p1"

The only diff is I am using a 512mb board with new start.elf, the exact same image has worked for a ages on 256mb board.

If you put back the 256M start.elf does it boot?

Nah unfortunately.

I tried replacing start.elf, then start,elf + loader.bin + bootcode.bin with originals, getting rid of config.txt. But once he goes I cant get him back to life.

Maybe i should have mentioned that and say it clear that the GUI scaling only belongs to GUI and not video rendering.

Sizing (1920,1080)->(1280,720) (Zoom x1.00) AR:1.78:1

If change "Normal" to "Original Size"

Sizing (1920,1080)->(1920,1080) (Zoom x1.57) AR:1.78:1

and picture is ZOOMED.

Conclusion:

EVERYTHING is scaled to 720p, not only GUI.

I'm seeing this exact same issue as well.

New bulid r12196 is very good. No more paused video few second before the end, adjust frash rate now working and much more fixes. Full upscalling still exsist.

PS. Skin settings is missing r12196.

I agree with rbej, build r12196 is amazing!!! The AC3 problem is gone (thanks gimli!), I can now watch 1080p with DTS (didn't work earlier on this movie I now tried) but as said before everything is 720p upscaled (my screen is set to 1080p24) and if I set original I get a zoomed picture... But otherwise this is maybe the best build ever. Keep up the good work! Thank you!!!

if you want to get rid of the upscale, you will have to compile it from source.
follow the compile guide and let it compile after it is done goto the sources/xbmc folder uncompress the xbmc tar.xz
In file xbmc/windowing/egl/WinEGLPlatformRaspberryPI.cpp change the limits in the ClampToGUIDisplayLimits function to 1920x1080 instead of 1280x720.
compress the folder again and change the md5
remove the .stamp/xbmc from the rpi build dir
compile again, should take like 5 mins everything was allready compiled, it will only compile the file changed.
install on the SD

Btw they could allow to define that limit in a configuration somewhere, so that the user could change it. If that message when changing view modes is right...

r12196:

1) Artwork (thumbnails) still squashed and being displayed with incorrect proportions
2) 1080p video continues to be zoomed

Not specific to this build, as it was also present in r12195, and maybe even r12089 - OMX errors when displaying thumbnails are back (resulting in black rectangles where thumbnails should be):

Confirming, they've gone awol in r12196. I've just spent an hour trying to find the Skin settings, deleting guisettings.xml etc. etc. Glad to know I'm not going mad!

Not sure if it's new to r12196, but fast forward and rewind don't seem to be working in Music playback (MP3) - I've only just tried importing a music library so this side of XBMC is rather new to me! Smile

HI, yes it is missing for the default skin, if you install another skin the option shows up for that skin

This commit is probably what caused the missing skin settings.

The skin settings can now be found under:
Settings > Appearance > Skin > Settings

rather than Settings > Skin
