High Quality Software Upscaling question - Hitcher - 2008-05-28
I've only just noticed this in the Video options and wondered how XBMC actually decided what's SD and what's not.
Also, where's the best place to find out about new features as they're added?

anything < 720p is considered sd
and best place would be the svn logs

What about 720p material whose resolution is 960x544 due to the black borders?
- spiff - 2008-05-28
that would be considered hd
- Hitcher - 2008-05-28
Excellent, thanks.

Here's the check so there's no misunderstandings:
if (upscale == SOFTWARE_UPSCALING_SD_CONTENT && (m_iSourceHeight >= 720 || m_iSourceWidth >= 1280))
Thus, it is considered SD if height < 720 and width < 1280. If either height >= 720 or width >= 1280 then it will be considered HD.
In your particular example of 960x544, that would be SD. If you actually meant 1280x544 (i.e. a 2.35:1 aspect) then that would be HD.

What exacly should be considered as SD (Standard-Definition) and HD (High-Definition) has also been discussed here:

Yeah, I did mean 1280.
