[TESTING] Linux 4.9 kernel and improved video stack for Vero 4K / 4K +

Testing
803

I have just installed this to finally get 1360x768 resolution but I can’t find it in the resolution menu.
Do I have to do something special to enable it?

804

Have you checked to see if your TV is advertising support for this resolution?

805

It would be unusual for a display to advertise 1366x768 over HDMI. Can you post debug logs after a reboot, please.

Your display offers only 3 VESA resolutions and not 1366x768 it seems.

808

when I had osmc running on my rPi it recognized 1360x768 without a problem

810

Hmmm. Please post the output of

cat /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/vesa_cap

815 
640x480p60hz
800x600p60hz
1024x768p60hz
816

:thinking: You’ll have to leave it with us.

817

Try creating a file called disp_cap in /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata with the following contents:

480p60hz
576p50hz
720p50hz
720p60hz
1080i50hz
1080i60hz
1360x768p60hz

then restart kodi.

@sam_nazarko

Just installed version 20 and want to tell you that yellyfish 300 played fluently (via autofs on nas) :+1:

Understand you’ll go “ down under” to clean and work on further improvement. Thanks you and then team for all the effort so far. It’s been a pleasure to help us all with testing.

Looking forward to see those new build. Keep us posted. Stay safe.

That helps to get the resolution to show up in the settings, but when I select it the screen goes black for a while and then reverts back to 720p.

logs of the event:

I wonder if you still have the Pi with OSMC around as the output of that might also help the team to understand the problem.

821

Please try:
echo 8bitnow | sudo tee /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/attr
then try setting 1360x768 again.

822

that did work! =)

I am posting the rPi1 logs anyway just in case they can help any further

Thanks for testing. We’ll get that fixed. For now, you will have to add a line to /etc/rc.local
echo 8bit > /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/attr so that you still get 8 bits on reboot.

824

Aahhh is the default 10bit these days?

825

Has been for a long time.

826

@Lagoon and anybody else getting the random picture drop while watching live TV.
I turned off the HDP lock in video settings and I haven’t had a single black screen in 3 days.

827

@CaptainMoody I tried my reproducer with “Lock HDMI HPD” either on or off, it doesn’t change anything.
