INTERACT FORUM

I started playing around my hardware configuration. I noticed that if I change the fibre optic HDMI cable between my preamp and the projector, I don’t see dropped frames on the Seinfeld episode.

I would like to show total track count for Artists with more than 1 album.  I can only get it to show the average number of tracks per album. I have no doubt it can be done, but I've been messing around with existing scripts for a while and it is beyond my pea brain. Solving this I'm sure is mere toddler's play for our good (god) forum friend zybex.

Here is the code I have for the tracks at the moment:
<b><font size="130"> ifElse(isEqual(groupcount(Artist),1,2),[AlbumArtist],isEqual([AlbumArtist],),[AlbumArtist],isEqual(groupcount(Artist),1,5),Multiple Artists)<//font><//b>
<font size="100">If(isEqual(groupcount(Album),1,5),(groupcount(Album) Albums ~ [Total Tracks] Tracks,(groupcount(album) Album ~ [Total Tracks] Tracks/))<//font>
(thx in advance)

FYI: top pic shows the sub-genre/album and the thumbnail text is exactly as I want (for reference only). When I drill down one more to the artist level, I want to show total tracks, and that is where I'm running into trouble

I'm looking into the best way to do this right now.

 is this going to be possible to do?

I recently started watching the 4K release of Seinfeld on my JVC projector. I did not see any problems throughout Season 1 but something strange happens with Episode 1 of Season 2. I noticed that the playback was jerky so I launched the MC status screen (Crtl-J). It shows multiple frames are being dropped every few seconds. When I play Episode 2 of Season 2, no frames are dropped once the playback stabilizes in the first second or two of the episode. If I flip back to Episode 1, once again many frames are dropped. I reviewed the file formats using MediaInfo on my MacMini but I don’t see anything unusual. Both episodes are 4K 24Hz video files.

I collected a logfile while playing parts S2E01 and S2E02. Hopefully there is some useful information in there to explain what is happening.

pls try https://github.com/3ll3d00d/ezcapture/releases/tag/0.7.0-alpha.11 and see how the channel mapping is in this build (it should be built in <10mins)

I fixed the various values shown in the property page as well

the remaining issue I'm aware of is fixing the misaligned chroma for 1080p input but lmk if anything else is not functioning as expected

new build up (0.4.0) which should fix https://github.com/3ll3d00d/jriver_homeassistant/issues/24 and https://github.com/3ll3d00d/jriver_homeassistant/issues/22

Was just made aware that there is a version 34. On 31 jan I bought version 33, any chance for an upgrade?

You've got mail.

Thanks for the link.

To test it, I played some 50% stim test patterns (which have consistent light level but inconsistent luminance) and JRVR is definitely reporting luminance for me.

.5,.5,.5 ~100 nits
.5,0,0 ~26 nits
0,.5,0 ~68 nits
0,0,.5 ~6 nits
etc

But all of those examples are ~100 nit light level, and all require a 100 nit peak white display to produce.

I think the peak calculation is described somewhere in the vicinity of https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,136378.msg949056.html#msg949056

Presumably when doing HDR to SDR TMing, the algo clips pixels that are greater than display peak when in that in between zone where the actual frame is greater than display peak but the smoothing is resulting in a nits value that is still below display peak white, resulting in "no tone map" state even though the frame exceeds display peak.

As a side note, it appears the frame peak nits being reported on the OSD is actually luminance and not light level.  That's surprising since light level is what actually corresponds to display capabilities rather than luminance, but maybe that's a topic for another day...
