Hi there!

Can anyone tell me how I include Reclock in my setup?
I just made a clean install of MP 1.2.1 and SAF 6.0 and the newest reclock.
I use Reclock to compensate for the difference between 23.976 and 24 fps. Not using reclock causes a small hickup every 42 seconds.

I had reclock installed and enabled ealier, but now I don't remember how I did it.
I've tried to add reclock at post-processing and to choose reclock as audi renderer, but the reclock icon is yellow/orange and doesn't turn green as earlier.


Some help or advice would be very much appreciated.

You might try using 23 fps as it will usually result in 23.976 (if your TV supports it). You might need to add a custom resolution for that and use mp to switch to that fps.

I'm quite sure my tv only supports 24, and not 23. I'm also running it through a Onkyo TX-SR707 and that could cause problems as well.

But what are you saying? Should I just play the files as they are, 23,976 and then change the refreshrate on the tv to 23 Hz (through the nvidia control panel)?

I've had a tip to test XBMC again. There's supposed to be a function there that eliminates the whole problem. I'll give that a go an see...

Have you tried configuring the automatic refresh rate changer as follows:

Source -> Refresh Rate
23.976 -> 23
24 >- 24

23 usually mean 23.976 to the video card.

I wil definite try this. Thanks for the tip guys!

Now I remember why this didn't work. It's because I use the 100 Hz motion setting on my Samsung tv and it doesn't support 23.976. That's why I get the judder. Thanks anyway
