update: voorbeeldje

voorbeeldje

wel versie 1.13.02 (beta) gebruiken. Veel van die stream servertjes hebben vaak een verkeerde mime type. 3FM gebruikt: video/x-ms-asf en ik geloof dat pas sinds 1.13.02 we erg veel asx mime-typen er extra erin hebben gezet zodat meer streams ondersteund worden (problemen van anderen oplossen)

HDMI Auto Sync

The upcoming beta release of the CFULLHDMA has HDMI Auto Sync.

This means following: if you have a TV supporting EDID you see the available resolutions of your TV. When playing video the CFULLHDMA will detect what is the frame rate and will adjust the screen resolution accordingly.

In above image you see the resolution at 60Hz. We start a movie with 24Hz and than we get the folowing resolution seen on the TV

(you will see the loading icon, the screen will adjust, loading icon will disappear, than re-appear and the TV will show th 24hz)

As seen in the image below

  • Fixed some issues on photo display. Some jpegs could not not be displayed. (side affect 4:3 issue)
  • Fixed NFS not to play ISO correctly.  (Pressing play on ISO file: nothing happened, you needed to press down to open ISO file to select video_ts)

CFULLHDMA: beta 1.11.21

Ok, it took me long hours debugging why in certain situations the mounting of Samba Shares was failing. In short: not many users whould have seen this bug. Only in certain configuration setups like the one I am using myself. But enough reason for me to tell everyone on the beta list not to use it unless you are willing to suffer the issue not be able to mount.
