Quote:Question, if I have my resolution set at 1080p and play a 2160p file, will it switch automatically to the 4k resolution?
Yes. If you have Kodi running at 2160, Kodi does the upscaling of your 1080 to 2160.
If you have Kodi running at 1080, your display does the upscaling of your 1080 to 2160.
If you are playing an MVC frame packed 3D, you are not going to render 2160 and will report 1080.
However, using active, you will render 1080 to each eye which appears (Promise) 2160.
If you are playing a SBS or TAB, it will upscale to 2160 since it is not frame packed.
Is there an advantage? Nope. It's all about how you fill in all those pixels.
