    Would be typcal of Apple to go for something "noone" else does. Why can't they all just work on the same 4K format and make it open source?

    ~Apple tend to pick up someone else's idea and make it look nice.
    I don't believe they've come up with an original idea in about 30 years!

    Also, with all the ultra, mega extreme etc. prefixes, what happens when they run out?
    Will we get megaUltraExtremeTotallyAwesome HD @ 21600? :D

    They should start by getting AppleTV to play 720p High Profile or maybe even 1080p ;)

    Well from the sources they think that TV's will be in your living room by 2022. My eye sight will be screwed by then so I dont think i will need it lol.
    To be honest how far do you really need to go with the res.
    To me 1080 on a 50" screen at 8-10ft looks as crisp as it ever needs to be. I can understand if you have a 65" screen or something but is it REALLY necessary?
    Personally I think they just like to push and push with things because they can. That doesnt mean that everyone is going to ditch 1080 sets and rush out buying these though.

    Just my opinions

    regards

    Kev

    Soon my eyes will run at a lower res than movies :(
    I tested out a few test movies on friends @ SD and HD and mostly people couldn't tell the difference...

    Because we can because we should

    That was it! :) I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose. Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.

    Pfff, amazing MadVR instead of (the good one) EVR. Watched 240p movies given by my family on Full HDTV. What can I say : For 240p, less macroblocks, better smoothed. For all : More transparency, more mirroring (example, reflects pictures on cars, on flasks of water). When available, it is worth to take time to configure MadVR, at the...

    That fixed the problem. I just manually installed VC_redist.x64.exe and reinstalled 1.32 64-bit. Thanks for that. A couple of things; the deployment tool for 1.32 doesn't remove the previous version when you're updating from 1.31 to 1.32 and "MediaPortal TV Server" gets installed even when you choose to install the client only. I...

    If anyone ever experiences the above, I found a fix. Removing and reinstalling MP-TVSeries fixed it. It must have gotten corrupted during the reinstall of MP. I also had to do the same with TRAKT which had some issues too that were not apparent at the time. All is well once again. :cool:
