hi, i´ll first expose my setup:
- xbox 1.4 (focus video encoder)
- rgb video cable
- pal 50 hz sony trinitron tv (also compatible with pal60 and ntsc)
- xbmc 2005-03-08
now, if i calibrate my setup using pal resolution everything works fine.. (i of course use the calibration to set up the image to fill the entire screen, but i dont oversize it)
the problem is when i play ntsc material and the video changes to pal60. then the previous calibration is not valid, and the image looks oversized. for example i noticed this when watching ocean´s 12 opening credits, because titles were not completly shown. ("ocean´s twelve", appears at the left, but i only could read "ocean´s twel.." or so)
of course if i force the video to play in pal the previous calibration is valid and everything looks fine..except for i prefer to play videos in its original resolution/refresh.
so, is there any way to setup two different calibrations? one for pal and another one for pal60/ntsc, and make xbmc to use the correct one each time you play a video.
i know you can set up different profiles..but is not as easy as just doing that.
thanx in advance.
regards
