+--- Thread: PAL60 switching not working any more (/showthread.php?tid=353)

sigh...it's xbmp all over again....
i just tried some 23.976fps avis and the current build doesn't switch to pal60....yes, my xbox is set to pal60 etc etc

hmm, i don't think 23.976fps vides should switch to pal60 because they play better in pal50?, only 29.*/30 should switch?

you are right - pal60 switching was not working correctly the last week or so. it was due to a code cleanup that unfortunately overlooked a critical line which set the refresh rate, thus pal xboxes stayed in pal50 mode.
it has since been fixed - upgrade to the latest cvs code.
the 23.97fps files generally play smoother in pal60, as they can do 3 frames then 2 frames, repeated (gives 24 frames per second which is real close to 23.97).
in case you are wondering, the calculation used is:
if (remainder(120/fps)<remainder(100/fps))
use pal60
else
use pal50

ok, so maybe it's not xbmp all over again - a post like this would have gone completely ignored. i'll have more faith in future. :lol:
actually it's not really pal60 - it's pal59.94 - the same as ntsc. that's the whole reason that films are slowed from 24fps to 23.976fps before the 2:3 pull-up
