New drivers for SF8008

[twol]

Just to add that channel zapping is now almost perfect - the slow motion when changing channels is hardly noticeable on the Openeight image.

Must admit don't see any difference on ViX - although I am running off SDcard so might be an issue

Unfortunately the autoresolution plugin doesnt seem to work properly for me on Vix so I have given up on it for the moment. On every channel change the display blanks even if the resolution doesn't need to be changed and I dont have that much patience. Also it doesn't detect the refresh rates correctly for media playback. I'm using a 1080p display but I would imagine that shouldn't be causing the issues. Autoresolution on Atv is a bit better but a lot of gremlins too. So I have settled for openeight as resolution/refresh rate switching seems to be very good now.

Can I ask why would you want to use the auto resolution plugin?

To get the correct refresh rates? Maybe I got things a bit mixed up- I havent installed any autores plugin - just using the autores feature in A/V settings. If I'm watching a 24Hz movie then I would prefer it at 24Hz. On my Solo2 I had 576i TV to output at 1080i, and HD material output at its native refresh rate. Great for TV with no video blanking etc. And all media files would play at their correct settings. However the same thing does not work properly with Vix on the SF8008.

When will the latest drivers be added on openvix please?

They usually appear the next time the image is built. I don't think they have been released anyway - there was a download link and it seems to have been pulled.

Apart from last bullet point, what have these changes to do with the SF8008?? - they are just part of the OpenATV image.
