@fritsch
you can see there are garbled images (colored blocks) all over the screen. but this does not appear during playback. only in the menu.

well to rule out the skin issue,
did you try another skin ?
did you try another driver for your graphic card ?
does this only happen in xbmc or also on your desktop ?

in some skins it appears also but not that much. i downloaded all skins in the official repo just to compare. 
this only appears in xbmc menu not anywhere else. yes, i have tried different (older) drivers but it became worse. they said its ati problem with xbmc, never a skin. some even suggested to do linux install htpc dedicated to xbmc.

which skin is it ?
also with confluence skin ?
which driver version are you using ?
did you set all your settings like in the first topic ?
you could try a clean install of xbmc (perhaps in portable mode)
i presume you're using the latest xbmc from here 13.x Gotham ?

using gotham stable. updated with latest ati drivers. it does not appear in confluence, quartz and bello is where it is very visible.

well i would almost say it's a skin issue then if it only shows when using those skins

Whatever is connected to your HDMI out only tells us that is has 2 channels. So what is connected there?
