I have an Xtreamer with Classe which has an device screen of 640x480.

Everytime the xbmc starts it re-establish the monitor connected and therefore it is set back to 640x480. I also get no audio output on NVIDEA HDMI Classe (which is identified correctly).

What I need to do is the following:
- connect the Xtreamer (OpenElec) to a TV with 1920x1080
- shutdown xbmc
- take the Xtreamer to the Classe and connect it while the Classe is already on (which is dangerous)
Now the audio runs like a charm and I have 1920x1080 plus DTS-MA stream, flac 192khz/24 bits etc. Really perfect!

As soon as I power down everything and start-up again it switch back to 640x480 plus NO audio, although the audio is still set the original HDMI Classe etc. So this wasn't changed at setup.

I have tried to look at guisettings.xml and advancedsettings.xml in userdata folder but it seems that this adjusted when looking to the file date modification.

I run 3.0.6 OpenElect and Frodo 12.2 (what I see when booting up).

I you have any idea please let me know. I have seen it working and it is really superb!!!

Follow this howto, with a already running system: http://openelec.tv/forum/68-audio/61795-...d-on#69329

Important is the part of using the "working" EDID information to store it on your system, so nvidia always thinks it is up and fine.

Thanks Fritsch,
It's clear however at step 3 it is not going as described. The dump is not created (edid.bin). I can see in the log there are some EDID references but 0 Found at the end and therefore edid.bin is not created.
I'm pasting the most interesting part of Xorg.0.0.log (if you don't mind...)

Please use a pastebin and also post your xorg.conf that lead to this output. I think X is simply missing debugging.

Hi Fritsch,
I have tried once again as I doubted the connection with the device was not established correctly.
Indeed after a few retries step 3 was ok and the bin file was created with DFP-0.
After making the changes to xorg.conf (and I'm an experienced unix user with vi etc...) the file was ok however after a reboot I got:

Cannot open screen ":0.0"
Abnormal exit
repeatedly...Abnormal exit

When I rebooted again, it is just hanging after Openelec has started and the red screen appears of Xtreamer...

I have a suspicion my Classe is the problem. It has a monitor (in front of the pre-amplifier) in between which has a resolution of 640x480. The pre-amp has the ability to forward 1920x1080p, but this screen is in between. With normal use it displays 1920x1080p, but when enabling the logging I think it didn't see the 1920x1080p so the bin file was created with the 640x480 or whatsoever.

Do you advice me to connect directly to the output? In that case I might have a problem because I have a LCD with 1920x1080p and a projector with 1920x1080i

Also if I would connect the LCD directly it would see a Sony instead of the Classe HDMI... which is basically different (and yes it identifies exactly with HDMI what device is connected and give it a name according to screen).

I hope you have a solution.
