Ah, the first public release ? Nice, congrats, I couldn't use the WDTV Live without your plugin anymore

This is the line you will want to edit:

*:1080p60|1080p50|1080p24|1080p23|1080i60|1080i50|720p60|720p50|576p50|576i50|480p60|480i60

In this line simply remove the resolution/framerates your TV doesn't support. For example, let's say you have a US TV, then it will most likely (there are exceptions !) not support 50 hz. (Most european TV's support both the european 50 hz and the US 60 hz standard, not sure if that's an indication of arrogance of one of those continents ? )

Also let's say your TV supports both 24h and 23.976 hz but only for 1080p (like my XBR9 does). In that case you'll end up with something like:

*:1080p60|1080p24|1080p23|1080i60|720p60|480p60|480i60

And to explain this part:

\[60\]:1080p60
\[50\]:1080p50
\[24\]:1080p24
\[23.976\]:1080p23

I'm not using this functionality myself, but here is what it does: you can bypass the whole 'video detection' phase, by adding something to your filename. For example, if you add [60] to your filename, then it will bypass detection and just use 1080p60 for that particular video file. If you remove that part from the config, then it won't do this. But if you don't plan on using it (like me), then you don't need to change anything here.

So for most users, all you need to do is edit that line that I explained in my previous post.

thanks for the quick reply.
i edited the line, but it´s kind of strange, my wd doesnt change the framerate according to the videofile.
i have the app.bin in the root of the usbdrive with all my movies in it.
the resolution is set to hdmi(auto) in the settings menu (which is 1080p60hz), but it doesn't change when i select a 23,976 fps movie for example. it always stays at 60hz.
