</div>I would suggest MythTV should put things back "the way it found it" after<br>
playing a video. There may be other programs the user wishes to run on the<br>
FE machine that doesn't like the new refresh rate, e.g. playing games via<br>
MythGame, watching streams with MythNetVision, alt-tabbing to another<br>
program, or launching a different player from MythVideo for a different<br>
filetype.<br>
<br>
I haven't actually tried running with 24Hz, so maybe it already does some of<br>
this, and I don't know what I'm talking about. Wouldn't be the first time.<br>
:)<br>
<br></blockquote></div><br>OK. After doing testing yesterday, I remember what my issue was. At one point, I was playing AVI files w/ mplayer from the FE. So if I watched a video at 24Hz using INTERNAL, the refresh rate would stay at 24Hz after the video ended. Then I watched an AVI w/ mplayer and the refresh rate caused bad framerate issues. That's why I think that the refresh rate should be brought back to the default after a video ends.<br>
<br>Also, JYA, you were right about the 50Hz issue on 60hZ TVs. INTERNAL did up the refresh rate to 60Hz on my 50Hz material. I do want to thank you for the help you've provided with this patch to INTERNAL. It's a really cool feature and I can definitely see the difference in video playback. Thanks so much!<br>
