No blue flicker in coreplayer with qtv (also how I got true 16:9 fullscreen on my tv)

So, I plugged in the wires I made for my touch pro's TV out, they worked, then I plugged the video feed into my comcast cable box (output to a 1080p tv.) Hit the tv/vcr button on the comcast remote, and after that I set the video to "Fixed" within the comcast menus, and when the image appeared on the screen, I set it to stretch (with the hd zoom button to the right of the 0 button on the comcast remote.) This gives a 16:9 fullscreen image.

Anyways, I loaded up coreplayer, and started a movie, and to my delight, there's no blue flicker like there was on the touch pro.

The image quality seems to be noticeably better and the movie plays as smooth as it does on the phone's screen.

This phone gets better and better lol

Coreplayer (1.3.0) most definitely does do the blue flicker thing playing ripped movies through the TV out in my TP2 if I use QTV (same as the TP did).

Set to Direct Draw it doesn't flicker, but Album gives a noticeably better picture (for h.264 rips anyway) so I use that most of the time.

Oh I didn't even know tp was fixed. I was so obsessed with it at one point, but then I just gave up and never paid attention to it again.

But anyways, with this phone being 16:9, if you have a comcast digital box like mine, you can make it full screen. I can't really think of any other method unless the TV its self has some sort of resizing option.

Hey you know what's cool? WVD and TV out

LOL, never mind I just loaded that version & you're right. No more flicker.

I thought I had the latest version loaded, but then I remembered I had done an SPB BU restore a while back & the file must have been made before I installed the latest CP......

op, what build are you using? build 1.3.5 was when i noticed the fix. i think

**jmorton10** · #9 (**permalink**) 10-28-2009, 11:08 PM

I'll probably still use both Album & CP, Album has the zoom/aspect ratio control that CP doesn't (at least I don't THINK it does) so I can see uses for both.

coreplayer has fill screen, fit best, and stretch. It works the same
