I'm using intel graphics which, of course, doesn't have NVctl and I've been trying to figure out how to get myth to switch to 24p on material encoded that way. Where would I look if I wanted to have a go at using xrandr for intel cards?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div>

<br></div><div>Problem with xrandr is that the frequency rate is stored as a short.
