Hi All,
I have a NUC7i3 running MP1.21pre connected to a Samsung 4k TV (NU8000).
I was having periodic audio dropouts (randomly every few seconds). Once I dropped the display resolution to 1080p (using the custom settings in the Intel Graphics settings), the audio dropouts went away. This works okay, but this forces me to use a funky scaled 1080p desktop.
Since I am only interested in watching broadcast TV in MP, is there a way that I can get more control over how MP drives my display during playback? Ideally, I would want to limit the upscaling to 1080p. Even better might be to experiment with using the TVs upscaler when playing low resolution broadcast content (it case my TV does a better job).
Can I do this in MP? I've tried playing with madVR and limiting the display modes to 1080* variants, but this didn't seem to work for me.
Alternatively, if this isn't easy to do and my NUC isn't up to the task of 4k, then would upgrading to a NUC8i3 be the answer?
Thanks for your advice.
