Hi afedchin,
Many thanks for implementing this. A quick test last night proved pretty good! I'll test some more and report back with logs, etc if I find anything.
One thing relating to the requirements... when using the settings combination fake full screen and 24p via match refresh rate you get video stutter. It's an old bug/limitation. Here's pull request relating to it... https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/747 . If you disable windows aero, I believe you get tearing on the GUI. Not sure if this is still a problem on Windows 8 with aero being given the boot!?? I'm planning on upgrading my htpc to win 8.1 preview so will let you know.
I expect you'll get bug reports from this, plus it will rule users out from being able to use it. Is fake full screen a definite requirement?
Cheers
Ok, so this doesn't appear to be a problem in Win8/8.1... all ok with fake full screen and 24p match refresh rate.
I just need to 'Win7/fake full screen/match refresh rate' in stereo mode to see if it happens, then we'll know if your switch to fake full screen on stereo mode fix will be good.
Thanks
