So a huge part of my library (Stored on a NAS) is 24 fps movie material, there is an equal amount of 25/30fps and also a lot of interlaced material deinterlaced to 50/60fps or 50/60 fps native material too.
BEST MAC MINI FOR KODI 1080P
I'm sure with SwitchResX I can output 1080p just fine but then I'm dealing with framerate conversion and judder if Kodi Cant switch video modes to match the content and that drives me batty. I have 24/25/30/50/60 hz content from a variety of sources be it, BluRay Rips, Live TV from a HD Home Run, my own video's from HD Video Camera's and GoPros, etc. The thing with refresh rates, that I have a lot of variety of content. I'll try Kodi in Windowed mode this evening and see if I have nay luck with that.Īs for the Mac - its a late 2014 model with the 3ghz i7 and Iris Graphics I myself have a 2012 i7 quad-core Mac Mini 6,2, but don't have a 4k display yet to try out. You might want to take a look at this thread on Apple Support forums regarding a pixel clock patch. Not to be deterred, I install switchresx and force 1080 output - this almost works as at desktop 1080P/60 is fine but then when Kodi tries to match native video output it all goes to hell, and it garbles the video output badly.Īnyone else know of ways to manipulate resolutions on 10.10? I wound not have thought a new set would have introduced such a maddening problem, but then again, I'm being naive if getting a 4K set connected to a mac isnt being an "early adopter".Ī.) Which Mac Mini model do you have? Which CPU? Which GPU?ī.) What 60hz 1080p H.264/AVC content do you have? I thought most feature files are either 24/30hz.Ĭ.) Are you encoding your own H.265/HEVC content with, say, Handbrake?Īnyway, you might not like this, but running Kodi in 'window' mode (not full-screen) might be your best option right now. The Yosemite display options arent of any help - they only allow scaling - not native resolutions - so I can scale to 1080 output but really im still outputting at 4K downsampled to scale and still limited to 24/30hz. That makes using Kodi a choppy affair as well as causing general problems for 60fps video - the Mac Mini isnt powerful enough to scale h265 content or h264 60fps 1080p content up to 4k/30. Problem is that the Mac Mini only sees this set as a 4K device - this means that I am limited to 2160P 30/24hz. I purchased this 70" Visio 4K set from Costco to replace the smaller 1080P set thats now been re-purposed elsewhere. Ive been enjoying it so much that I upgraded the display the other day, and this is where the problems began.
The hardware is silent (Enough) for being out in the open, its powerful enough to play H265/HEVC 1080p/60, and anything less than that.
