"AdjustRefreshrate: Switch to higher resolution"
Hey, now that's something I was arguing to get implemented quite a while ago! Is the basic purpose to switch back and forth from a general "1080p" resolution and 4k for 4k stuff?

Ah. Only other vague reference is the patch being included in a Pi test thread, and a Nvidia/Legacy test thread. I remember you commenting on the logic difficulty of dealing with odd-sized video resolutions and PARs. Will be interesting to learn more about it in future.
Right now, I have a button on my remote that runs a script to change resolution to 4k and then back again.

Did someone encounter this behavior?
I have perfect sync with AC3 Audio on an 25 fps or 23.976 fps movie.
But with an movie with DTS Audio I get a delay of approximately 225ms.
I also turned on and off the "synchronise audioplayback to display" but still the same.
Tested with the ppa from yesterday with an Pioneer AVR and Samsung TV.

Haven't seen a sync delay only on one audio format. The typical symptom is all 23.976 fps content (25fps and higher are fine) require a delay of around 175ms regardless of audio format (DD/DTS/AAC/MP3). I don't think Kodi does this delay by default yet, but OpenElec does. Except for the test version in this thread, which had it removed, although it may go back again.

have been using one of these test files for a few weeks now. decided today to update to one of the newer openelec builds found in the first thread. i was having some graphical glitches on the newest file so i tried to rollback to the day before's file the 21st.
now, i have no idea why but this file i loaded i can't do anything. my chromebox boots up just fine but after this it is locked. plugging in a keyboard directly i get no response trying to arrow across menus. my bluetooth remote has no response. no response via flirc either. i can't login to the static ip of the box, it appears the box won't connect to the internet. it shows as offline on the yatse android remote app as well.
i am just a novice compared to others in this thread can anyone tell me what i should do to get my box up and running again? i usually use winscp to get into the box and load files but i can't connect via anyway i'm used to.
any help would be much appreciated

Curious: In the latest OE build (09/22) a new DB Version is used: MyVideos97. The build from 09/17 uses MyVideos96 though both builds have the same Kodi Version (Jarvis Alpha 3)?

New build online. This time whenever Sync Playback to Display is activated - passthrough audio is disabled ... and PCM out is used.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
