I can't get sound during playback...but system sounds are okay. Any ideas as to where I went wrong? I did update the Nvidia drivers just prior to installing this script. Other than that....Buttery Smooth! My Avatar Backup had major stutter where Jake first meets the Queen. Now ... Smooth!
But, can someone give me some clue as to why the audio doesn't work?
Edit: Don't know why but it took about 3 reboots and a rest period of 1 hour for the sound to work again. Oh, well.

Any idea why my HD DVD backups are all nothing but Stutter after the script?

Hi.
Since the guide doesn't really work for me (still having problems with playing videos with different refresh rates, I finally decided to use XBMC Live just for playing 23.976Hz files. But I can only choose 24Hz playback at XBMC.
Can someone tell me how to add 23.976Hz to the playback menue?
I have to add that I am totally new to Linux. So I need "help for dummies". :-)

Script worked for me, thanks. I still have a couple of things to fix before it's perfect though...
1. Still loosing the edges of the Ubuntu desktop because of scan issues. Not that big of a deal as the purpose of this box is to run xbmc; would be nice to fix though.
2. The receiver and screen have to be powered on before the pc. If I boot the pc first it comes up in low graphics mode.
thx

If I run XBMC under Windows 7 and I set the display refresh rate in Windows to 23 (which is 23.976) then in XBMC I can choose 23.98Hz.
Why isn't that possible under Linux?

On windows it's made available as 23 hertz, and XBMC assumes that that's 23.976 hertz.
On linux that's not possible because of the aforementioned randr limitation.

Sure there is, the fact that you see 24 doesn't mean it is 24.

But when I set it to 24Hz, I don't have a completely smooth playback.
So what can I do?
I use the XBMC Live CD from XBMC Freak, which is running on my Asrock ION 330.

Post a debug log on pastebin with sync playback to display turned on and I'll take a look.
