1. Sometimes when stopping a film the picture goes really small and to the top left of the screen.
2. Not a Kodi issue, but whenever I select a custom resolution in Windows to get less frame drops if I reboot or go back to the desktop Windows selects the native resolution. Very annoying. I am using the latest nvidia drivers.
I need smooth playback as frame drops really annoy me.
Some troubleshooting:
- Did you determine if the custom resolution is causing this?
- Have you tried using refresh rate switching with Kodi and madVR but not both at the same time?
- Did you set Kodi to a fullscreen window rather than a true fullscreen?
- Did you try setting Kodi to another resolution like 1920 x 1080p?
- Did you try enabling and disabling fullscreen exclusive mode along with the option to disable fullscreen exclusive mode on stop in DSPlayer?
I don't think the custom resolution issue is that big of a problem. People having been using Windows media players for years without ever noticing the odd frame drop or repeat. It is sometimes in your head. The newest Nvidia driver should give you one frame drop or repeat every 12-14 minutes.
If you do use a custom resolution, you may have trouble switching into 12-bit and having that change stick. If you really want the custom resolution, I would just create it at 8-bits and use the dithering of madVR. You are unlikely to notice the difference. Also, try another optimized clock if the one you are using is giving you problems.
