[VU+ Solo] Possible problem with build 751

[pdlee]

guys i need logs.

Andy I've attached the log immediately after I updated the box last night. Is this what you need or have I misunderstood?

Also just noticed the thread is for the solo whereas this log is for a duo (sorry).

guys,

'multi' now works, it seemed it never worked before, when setting multi, please make your TV support 60Hz refresh rate for 720i, 720p, 1080i, 1080p.

576i/p is always 50Hz
480i/p is always 60Hz


please test these files, and report back to me.

place them in '/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/Videomode'

Hi Andy

OK i updated back to build 753 so got the ghosting on multi setting, installed the pluging.pyo and videohardware files and restarted enigma. on multi all seems fine now however i did try 50 & 60mhz, 60mhz still gives ghosting and strange when i tryed 50mhz bbc1 hd was ok but when i changed to bbc1 wales sd the ghosting appears but then when on another bbc1 region in sd it didnt signal level on all channels is 99% so can discount signal loss. 50mhz on some some other channels also gave the ghost did note when zapping you get a microsecond blank screen as if its switching mode .

By the way i didnt load the folder in the zip file _macosx...should i as it dont appear in the file you wanted to post these new files to, also for others who maybe trying to test are they for both solo and duo versions of vix.

if i note any other problems overnight i will report back here

No need for the _macosx folder, just ignore it.
& yes, this file is for all vix images/boxes.

sounds like your TV does not support 1080i60 Hz

hi

good shout i went back to build 750 and checked 60mhz which resulted in ghosting on my Phillips tv

 

[andyblac]

guy's just heads up, multi NEVER worked previously (it did nothing just set 50Hz), but this is being fixed and is still work in progress, so if your TV does NOT support 60Hz do not use the new AutoRes or Multi, set your rate to 50Hz.

This all started withe the inclusion of oe-alliance auto resolution plugin in av settings.
Both my solo2 and xp1000 do this. Auto resolutoin is off.
I have force 50 hz as all channels on 28.2 are 50hz but it changes to 60 after reboot or zaping from hd to sd or vice versa. Only solution at the moment is to change it to 50hz then save and when the tv switches to 50 go back in av settings and change it to multi. This way it sticks to 50 hz even with zapping from sd to hd or the other way. That is only until a reboot thats when its back to square one and you have to do this trick again.

Hi andy
Even if force 50 it doesnt stick to it and changes to 60 although its still showing as 50 in av settings. Se my above post for my workaround. Might be a clue to the actual problem

yeah, sorry, working hard to fix, as i said earlier 'MULTI' has never worked, it just set to 50Hz, have spent over 6 hours testing / debugging. i will build 754 tomorrow for our team to test this wil be a 2 day test, but if you want to help me test it pm your email addy and i'll send you a link when its built.
