Moving Pictures - Multipart-Movies - Dynamic Refresh Rate (1 Viewer)

Moving Pictures 1.2.2.1290

Hi Moving Pictures Dev's, Hi community!

I have noticed an issue with Moving Pictures, Multipart-Movies and Dynamic Refresh Rate!
Steps to reproduce:

1. Enable "Dynamic Refresh Rate" in MediaPortal Configuration
2. Start MP in fullscreen (maybe in 1080p/50HZ resolution)
3. Start a Multipart-Movie in Moving Pictures with Refresh Rate 1080p/24 ->
4. MP changes the Refrehrate to 1080p/24 (expected)
5. At the end of part 1 MP changes the Refresh Rate back to 1080p/50HZ (expected?)
6. MP starts playback of part 2 ->
7. expected: MP changes again the Refrehrate to 1080p/24 ->
8. but Refreshrate remains at 1080p/50HZ

Playback in MyVideo is working as exspected! Log's are attached!

Best regards

Helios

I don't know if this is a similar issue but when I use a Custom Intro (25Hz) before a film with 23.976Hz the film stutters. (refreshrate change not working as it should). If I use the Custom Intro (25Hz) before a film with 25Hz the film plays smooth!

Default Refreshrate in MediaPortal is 50Hz.

A major bump on this issue. Loving the random custom intro mode in Moving Pictures 1.3, but when the movie starts the refresh rate is back to default (50hz on my system).

Another bump!

I tried the custom intro feature of moving pictures today. Very nice!

But this problem makes this feature unusable!

When I start a movie, the custom intro starts, refresh rate changes to match the frame rate of the intro. When the intro ends, refresh rate changes back to my default (50hz) and the the movie starts with the wrong refresh rate. Very annoying, because the movie is unwatchable as a cause of this.

Only workaround I can think of, is to convert all of my intros to 25 fps. Haven't tried this but that should work. But still it doesn't fix this issue!

Any suggestion?

I tried changing my intro movies to 25 fps. But still got the same issue.

Only workaround that works is by disabling "default refresh rate" in refresh rate settings. But that isn't an ideal solution for me.

Shame, because I would love to use this feature.

Is there anything we can do to fix this issue?

Today I downloaded multiple MKV files (surround demos). These are stored in 1 folder and are imported as 1 movie.

After playing back 1 demo, refresh rate changes to 24hz. When the other one starts, the refresh rate goes back to 50hz, instead of 24hz.

There must be more people with this problem. Any thoughts about this? PLZ

I am having it too as already reported.
