Stutter after refresh rate change (10 Viewers)

[Scythe42]

Glad to here this. Now, never update the drivers again!

Windows is sooo frustrating sometimes. But at least it works now.

Why do all people always blame MS when majority of the driver sourced issues are coming fromt he HW manufacturer direction?

Turns out the problem wasn't resolved. For whatever reason, Aero got turned off during the driver installation. So the stuttering went away, but tearing appeared.

Stupid Windows!!!

I gave up on trying to get it working. I'm actually using a different media centre so I can watch the 1080p24 content. When an official release of W8 comes out I'll try that as I understand that the refresh rate switching works properly. Or maybe it will work for me with something else (MP2, MP1.3, or a MS Service Pack).

Hi Doug,
I can talk about myself, i didn't get stutter @1080p24 after refresh change, i use Nvidia Card GT460.
I think i can get stutter if i change refresh rate manually when video is already started (i need to confirm this on my 1.3.0setup but it was happen on 1.2.x).
Maybe you can give a shoot on 1.3.0Alpha but there is also work for 1.3.0beta (not released except if you can build GIT Source).

I tried 1.3.0 Alpha. I'll try the Beta when it comes out. I'm not in a rush so I won't download and compile (as that would be a learning experience I don't have time for at the moment.)

 

[doug]

Is this bug fix the one which will solve my issue? If so, I can hardly wait.

 

[Sebastiii]

Yeah that possible

I'm cautiously reporting that I believe the stuttering is now gone. I haven't had time to test it thoroughly though. I'll have to run it through its paces after/during the holidays.
