I’m facing a severe problem which actually doesn’t have anything to do with Kodi as such, but unfortunately impacts Kodi directly.
I recently built an HTPC/Steam rig with Intel i7-6800K, GTX 1080 (Asus Rog Strix), 16GB DDR4, Intel 600p NVMe SSD on the Asus X99-A II motherboard.
My HTPC is connected to Yamaha RX-A2000 receiver, which is connected to Epson 5010 Projector.
The bottomline is this:
If I don’t enable Stereoscopic 3D in nVidia Control Panel, I do get the option to set 1080p @ 24Hz under Resolution/Refresh Rate. However, 3D does not play on my projector then. Everything is 2D only.
If I do enable Stereoscopic 3D in nVidia Control Panel, 3D plays 1080p @ 24Hz, however, I don’t get the option to set 1080p @ 24Hz for 2D content – I only get 50Hz, 59Hz & 60Hz – which produces horrible judder/stutter for 24 fps media.
All my HD media plays back absolutely smooth @ 24Hz refresh rate, but doesn’t @ 60Hz refresh rate. So in nvidia control panel, I can either have NO 3D but 1080p @ 24Hz, or HAVE 3D, but 1080p @ 60Hz.
I’m essentially leaving Stereoscopic 3D “Disabled” in nvidia control panel, and setting my HTPC to 1080p 24Hz so all my 2D media plays back smoothly. I have to “Enable” Stereoscopic 3D in the nvidia control panel anytime I want to watch 3D, which is obviously a Royal Pain!
So my questions comes down to this, in order to have 3D enabled, if my Refresh Rate cannot be set to 24Hz but has to stay on 60Hz, is there any way to playback 24fps media WITHOUT judder/stutter and basically smooth on 60Hz refresh rate?
Either that – or someone with some remarkable experience here can help me resolve the above nvidia control panel issue so I can have 24Hz available for both 3D & 2D.
Thanks!
