Automatic Refreshrate Changer (3 Viewers)

[hairlesshobo]

I recently switched to both using video and audio over HDMI and now Automatic Refreshrate Changer "on" gives me horrible lip sync issues (sync starts to drift almost right away). I have an NVIDIA card and run MediaPortal 1.2.2 in Windows XP, is this a known issue with a "quick fix" like using 12Noon DC or Powerstrip or should I start posting logs/bug reports?

When I was using my external Soundblaster card for audio and DVI-HDMI for video, I had none of these issues.

Edit: I have made .bat files to use Noon DC now and when trying to paste the link to them into the ACTION fields, some default values "CINEMA 23.976" or something like that is automatically inserted before my pasted link so I had to manually edit that out from the MediaPortal.xml. A bug, right?

Don't know if you ever got this fixed or not, but if you are still having the audio video sync issues with using Automatic Refreshrate Changer, you might check the end of this thread. Look for posts by Robbo100. I am experiencing the same issues you are and have yet to try it (at work right now), but it sounds promising. Maybe it'll help your issue!

i am struggling to get this working on windows 8, i am using a onboard nvidia gt430 card and it all works fine. I wanted to use windows 8 for storage spaces but this is my only issue

any ideas? seen the action box is there anything i can do there?

Could you elaborate on the issue and what you are struggling with? I am a bit clueless right now. Or did I miss something?

Ah sorry want clear it isn't changing the refresh rate, all works fine in windows 7 but windows 8 doesn't switch rates as per the table in config

Just wondered if anyone had any success in windows 8

I am having the problem with this function.

Whenever it changes refreshrate, I get the "mediaportal has stopped working" from Windows 7. So it crashes.

I do not know how to make logs and post them, but if someone could point me in the right direction...

I tried with CCC instead of MP's native changer, same problem. I tried TV-series, Movingpictures same problem. Crash.
I have tried numerous HDMI-drivers, even Realtek's instead of ATI. I tried every option in the Dynamic Refresh Rate section, no help. I even tried with the defaultskin to see if it was StreamedMP that caused it.

I always get a crash from mediaportal.

I had this working previously but on a older build of MP.

Anyone?

Do you get the same crash if you have MediaPortal running and manually change refresh rate in CCC?
