Limited 16-235 RGB -> Blacks are greyish but Details are there, for now i am using this method and made a Color Profile on my TV for it
Full RGB -> Crushed Blacks, on first sight this looks better cuz black IS black, but many Details get Lost ( I watched the same scenes on my BR Player and the NUC side-by-side)
VA-API should not affect black levels, only colors.
I'm not currently using nightly. I tried the two latest ones (to get multithreading), but xbmc won't even start. I think it was 16358 that I used for testing 16..235. I'm on 3.2.3 with VA-API disabled, but playback is limited to files that can be handled by a single core or can be handled by slice mt.
Until we get a VA-API driver fix, or frame mt in xbmc (either a Gotham based OE nightly, or a backport), I'll be limited to 720p and will use my bluray for everything else.
