Does Xbian / RPI support DTS-MA / Dolby TrueHD surround sound ? I can't seem to find it in the Audio setup (Alpha3)
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 14th Dec, 2012 05:20 AM
testing
any specific part you want me to test ? or just general playback and stability ?
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - CurlyMo - 14th Dec, 2012 05:35 AM
Always general tests...
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 14th Dec, 2012 08:35 PM
can we get back the 128 RAM split as I found some files what having issue to play (black screen with sound only) on 100 split
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - CurlyMo - 14th Dec, 2012 09:01 PM
What kind of files?
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 14th Dec, 2012 09:03 PM
this is with real killer test files, like 40mbs bit rate
but with split 128 it plays fine
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 14th Dec, 2012 10:05 PM
another a bit weird issue I came across
on all my files I've tried to play I see lot of stutter on the 1st atempt to play, but when I stop/play again they play smooth as it should. Most of the videos plays fine on 2nd atempt but some on 3rd..??
this is really weird and I haven't seen this behaviour on earlier releases
not sure if the log file help but I've looked into and haven't seen anything suspicious

@rikardo1979, this is indeed really strange, does this also happen when you try this build with a fresh image?
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 15th Dec, 2012 05:59 AM
not sure what you mean by fresh image..
I've updated to latest nightly
before I have Alpha 3 and haven't have this issues
Maybe I should try again new latest image and after install nightly again

That is what I meant
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 16th Dec, 2012 02:04 AM
just did a fresh install and update to latest nightly and the issue is gone
not sure what have caused it on the updated version..
so now I have to do the fresh install on my main, for daily use SD card, ohh..its going to take at least...10 minutes of my time

another update
I've managed to reproduce the earlier issue with video stutter
my finding is as follow
update to the latest nightly XBMC RC1
from XBian Alpha 3 > XBMC RC1 - video stutter on 1st atempt to play
from XBian Alpha 1 > XBMC RC1 - video playback is perfect
Does it make any sense ?
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - CurlyMo - 16th Dec, 2012 05:14 AM
One of the things that we have changed is the memsplit...
RE: XBMC Frodo RC1 - rikardo1979 - 16th Dec, 2012 05:21 AM
yes i know that but it doesnt afect the playback stutter only on 1st atempt to play it.if there is an issue with mem split than usualy u have black screen with audion only.
i have no idea what can cause this weird thing.
but to be honest, it doesnt realy bothered me
cos at the end of the day I can still play the file, maybe not on the 1st hit of the button but that is not a big issue
