IChat video refresh rate

Hi. I am currently deployed to Iraq and am trying to use iChat to webcam with my wife and son back in the US. The audio portion seems to work okay, but the video is grainy and I can actually watch as the frame refreshes, little portions of the image refresh in sequence like a game of Space Invaders. My cable internet connection at home in the US is fast enough, but I know the issue lies here in Iraq with my connection speed. Which isn't bad, I can surf the internet and view streaming videos, download from iTunes, etc., in a reasonable time, just not as fast. I could compare this connection speed to a slow-moderate DSL speed.
Are there any setting within iChat or Quicktime or the system that I can adjust, or that my wife can adjust on her MacBook so that I can see and talk to my family while I am deployed?
Thanks for any help.

Make sure the System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming is set to 1.5 Mbps T1/Intranet/LAN setting
This will require a restart of iChat if you have to change it.
Then in iChat > Preferences > Video section there is a Bandwidth Limit drop down.
Ideally this should be set on NONE.
However you could try 500kbps or possibly 200kbps to see if it helps (I don't expect it to myself)
Before doing the second part use the Connection Doctor in the iChat Video menu and see what the local speed says you are sending.
If it is below 100kbps don't bother with the Bandwidth setting.

Altering refresh rates

Howdy folks!
I've got an 800mhz emac. The CRT is shot. I am able to use the external monitor plug. I had (have) an external Mac monitor but it is as big as the emac and I am running out of desk space. I bought a 15" Gateway LCD off a craigslister to park in front of the emac chassis. I got the message the the input was out of range for the monitor. I reconnected the mac monitor and tried to reset the refresh rate. There were other rates listed but they were greyed out and not accesible. After lots of reading on this board I found a link to an application called SwitchResX which allowed me to make the changes I need and the LCD is working now.
Here's the rub: SwitchResX is a 10 day limited shareware product. It costs $18.50 (or thereabouts) to register it. I will pay it in the end if I can't find relief elsewhere but I feel like I ought to be able to accomplish a change in video refresh rates without having to shell out $$ to a third party.
Anyone know of a more straightforwad, less costly way to achieve DIY video adjustments?
TIA!

Bump for last minute plea before paying ....

Quicktime Video on an LCD Projector Problems & Refresh Rate?

I'm having an issue and don't have a lot of experience with this but hopefully someone has some insight.
When i play back video (formats including DV, DV50, HDV, PRORES422 / interlaced or progressive / frame rates of 23.98 or 29.97) in full screen using Quicktime Player (version 7.4.5) and Present (Shift CMD F) to a projector, the video plays and looks good, with the exception of during certain portions of the video (generally, with a lot of motion), i see either a flicker or what appears to be a scan line, tear, or a trace that scrolls vertically up the image. The flickering/trace is consistent with regard to a particular portion of the video, though when i adjust the refresh rate for the projector, the behavior of the flicker or scrolling trace changes (say at 60hz, it scrolls slowly up vs 85hz where i see mostly flickering/tearing of the image or multiple traces scrolling up). I've tried 3 different projectors, and every combination of screen resolution and refresh rate with no success.
I should point out that when i play these videos full screen on a cinema display (20in or 23in) i don't see this behavior at all.
So, i have a few specific questions:
1. Is anyone familiar with this behavior and any solutions?
2. The projector is connected with a VGA cable and DVI adapter. Might a DVI cable resolve the issue? Is the behavior a result of the analog input? (The cinema displays are connected via DVI and don't exhibit the behavior)
3. If it is a projector issue, any recommendations on a good projector for presenting video played back from a computer?
Thanks in advance for your help. If i've posted in the incorrect forum, please do direct me to the right place.
Shane

Just a fast reply... something to think about...
Use 60hz, most lcd are 60hz. Check you resolution specs for the projector. If the native resolution is 800x600 use that setting if higher use that.....
If your using the lcd as a secondary display try setting the main display to the same specs. Sometime a mismatch between the two displays can cause problems.
Go with the lcd spec settings that's the main priority and the main display isn't.

PowerMac G4 533DA & HDTV - video resolution / refresh rate problem

Hope someone can help, I need to access more resolution / refresh rates than I currently get in the Leopard display control:
I have a PowerMac G4 533 Digital Audio running Leopard 10.5.8 (unsupported). It has an upgraded AGP videocard, a ( flashed PC - RV200 chipset) Radeon 7500 w/ 64MB and a DVI output w/ a VGA adapter. I have used this Mac perfectly with my 19" widescreen Samsung SyncMaster 940BW, at a resolution of 1440 x 900 / 60Hz / millions of colors. This monitor is actually for my MacPro, but I used it for the G4 to set it up.
I moved it to my living room to use as a basic HTPC. Since it runs Leopard, it has up to date VLC, Quicktime for video files and a working Superdrive for movies. I don't expect it to play anything more than 480p properly, I think that was the best I got on YouTube. But if I have a DVD ripped to DivX or MP4 it plays them fine on the Samsung monitor.
I connected it to my Viewsonic N3760w 37" 1080 HDTV. It turns on, gray screen w/ Apple and gives me a working desktop. The problem is that I cannot get it to give me the correct resolution and more importantly it seem to have the wrong refresh rate. It is currently set at 1280 x 768 / 60Hz / millions of colors. The screen give me like a small line slowly moving up across screen, higher refresh rates only make it movie faster up the screen.
According to my Viewsonic, these are the resolutions for computer using the VGA plug on the tv:
PC - 1360x768 (preferred) , 1024x768, 1280x768
Mac G3/G4/G5 - up to 1280 x 1024, 1280x720 (preferred)
Please note all of these are lower resolution than my Samsung monitor. My Viewsonic also has on screen adjustment of " phase " and " frequency " as well as the usual color, contrast, etc available. Is there a 3rd party app to manually adjust the resoluion and refresh rate? I have seen Windows programs, does one exist for Mac OS X?
TIA, sorry for the long post

My Viewsonic also connected by VGA, no problem.
I wish I knew more. I checked out the app you did a trial of. I noticed this statement on their web site: Quote
"After rebooting monitor stays blank
For some reason your monitor does not accept the installed frequency. SWITCH IT OFF!"
This is the type of statement that would 'worry me.' -- having the phrase: SWITCH IT OFF! all in caps seems to imply a possibility of damage...which I mentioned in my initial post. (and the site goes on to talk about how you should even then connect another monitor to change the settings you've made that were not accepted).
As I said, though, I wish I knew more for sure about this. It seems that you not only did the obvious of checking System Peferences>Display, but also realize the Viewsonic has buttons that can influence it's screen image, most about position of the image on the screen but at least one item about resolution on mine. (under Setup Mode)
For what it's worth, my Viewsonic is about 6 years old now, still fine, and has eight (8) possible resolutions shown in System Preferences.
Re: Your numbers.
It is currently set at 1280 x 768 / 60Hz / millions of colors.
PC - 1360x768 (preferred) , 1024x768, 1280x768
Mac G3/G4/G5 - up to 1280 x 1024, 1280x720 (preferred)
If you're only talking about a difference of 1280 x 768 and G4 1280 x 1024, perhaps just stretching the picture using the Viewsonic buttons is the way to go.
Or, from the numbers, perhaps the G4 just wants a resolution closest to it's preferred state!?
Anyhow, good luck.

Why does my iChat video only run at one frame per second?

When I connect to anyone on iChat my video runs at only about one frame per second. When others connect to me their video is much faster. This hasn't been a problem in the past - even with other Internet apps running when I'm using iChat. Could this be a problem with my ISP? Is there something I should do?

Hi Gary45,
In AIM 5.9 the PC can set the Video quality rate.
Start a chat.
The PC end clicks on the rear tab of the Video chat.
This brings their own preview to the front.
To the right there is anow a small iCon.
Click on this.
This brings up a slider.
Slide the slider to the Left.
If this is done to an iChat Buddy and they have the Connection Doctor open from the Video menu, they will see the Bit rate and Framerate go up. The consequence is that as the video Quality goes down the data that makes up the pic goes down allowing for better refresh rates and a smoother video.
Do you mean this only happens between you and him and not between him and his son ?
Or do you mean it happens between you and him and not his son and you ?

Thanks.

I upped the log verbosity on Xorg and checked the Xorg.0.log file. I found some interesting things.
First, I found this line:
(II) I810(0): Will use BIOS call 0x5f05 to set refresh rates for CRTs.
Later on, I found these:
(WW) I810(0): Extended BIOS function 0x5f05 not supported.
(II) I810(0): BIOS call 0x5f05 not supported, setting refresh with VBE 3 method.
(WW) I810(0): Set VBE Mode rejected this modeline.
Trying standard mode instead!
Presumably, "standard mode" is an eye-watering 60Hz.
This is on a Dell Optiplex GX260 with BIOS revision A09. The video chipset is an onboard Intel 82845 and the driver is Xorg's i810.
Everything works fine with Sun's X server. I get a nice 87Hz refresh at 1024x768. I'm surprised that Xorg can't set the refresh on this machine. It's listed as Test Suite Level 2 certified in the HCL. Unless somebody can tell me what I'm doing wrong here, I'm going to post this incompatibility as a comment on the HCL.

Judder using Mplayer... maybe force different resolution/refresh rate?

Hi!
(I posted this in the newbie section too, but this is maybe the most appropriate place??)
I've set up my computer as a media center using Freevo. As the main media player in Freevo I use Mplayer. The setup is working beautifully, but I'm getting some judder and it's a bit annoying. It's most noticable during bright, fast moving scenes.
So I've been trying to figure out how to remedy this, but it's harder than I thought. My setup is the following:
AMD 4200+ dual core, 2 gigs ram, Nvidia 7800GTX, 24" LCD and Pioneer LX508D plasma TV, and I'm using CoreAVC as decoder (amazing piece of software )
When I bought the 24" screen for my computer the sales guy (using windows) forced the resolution to 1920x1080. It looked a bit stretched, but if I could do this in Linux I'd avoid having parts of the picture missing on my TV. Now I have to use 1920x1200 resolution as main X session and since my TV is 1920x1080 parts of the desktop is out of view on my TV. This isn't too big of a deal though cause when playing movies they come out in 1920x1080. It'd be nice though to get the correct aspect ratio between my pc screen and my TV (I've been trying to use Twinview and clone, but it's impossible to use 1920x1200 on the 24" and 1920x1080 on the TV at the same time). I've tried to force my pc screen to use 1920x1080 (since it worked in windows it's supposed to be possible), but when I enable it through xorg.conf the screen goes blank. Using nvidia-settings doesn't give me the option of using 1920x1080 on the 24" at all.
So what I'm hoping to be able to do is to force the computer screen to use 1920x1080 and a refresh rate of 72Hz. This should eliminate alot of the judder and at the same time I won't have to use the "PC mode" on my TV (PC mode restrict the Hz to max 60Hz). Hopefully the TV will accept the 1920x1080 72Hz as any input and let me use the normal input (and then be able to use 72Hz... or 96Hz for that matter).
Anyone know how I might be able to do that? I'd really appreciate any help at all since this is the only thing that's not perfect with my setup.

Ok, I tried to change the xorg.conf file to 72Hz on the TV and it when black again. This is what the xorg.0.log shows:

I read somewhere that the TV is supposed to be able to show 1080p in 72Hz. But when I try that it goes blank. Maybe it has something to do with the monitor being 1920x1200 and the TV 1920x1080. The monitor won't accept 1920x1080 as resolution so I guess that can only be done in Windows...

Changing refresh rate blanks screen indefinitely

Hi all,
I'm new to the mac world and I was exploring OSX upon bringing my new Mac Pro home.
I have an old 17" Benq LCD monitor (upgrading soon) that I had hooked up using the analog to DVI adapter. I've heard that LCD's usually always are set at 60Hz but stupid me had to try other refresh rates. I set the refresh rate to 80Hz and the screen went blank and a box came up stating the refresh rate was "out of range".
I thought that it would automatically revert a la XP but after 5 minutes nothing. So in the meantime I just swapped to a different video output on the video card.
Could someone please tell me how I can revert the refresh rate to 60Hz so that DVI output can be utilized.
Thanks for reading!
Cheerz,

Use the "Gather Windows" button in the "Display" pane of "Displays" System Preference. You can change setting for both displays from one display. You can also check "Show displays in menu bar" to get control of both displays.
Resetting PRAM, or a Safe Boot might help.

I tried saving a power profile for the resolution, etc., but maybe I didn't know how to save it properly, so whenever just about anything significant happens to my T61P (logout, restart, change something about the video) it ends up reverting to 60 Hz and since I'm using a Philips 19" CRT second display, the 60 Hz refresh rate just doesn't cut it for my eyes.
Speaking of my eyes, the notebook display also reverts to max. brightness frequently, which is annoying.
Does someone know how I can get the rate to lock on 85 Hz and permanently retain the settings I put in for the power profile? I Just reinstalled the Thinkpad Power Manager but honestly I still need to reboot and see if it's better before I make too much of it here. Thanks!

3) If you do not specify a restricted list of modelines, I'm pretty sure all of them will be read from the EDID. I have only one modeline appearing in the output of xrandr and only one appearing in the XFCE display dialog. I do this in the "Display" SubSections where you list all the bit depths.
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0

EndSection
I never restricted anything, the modes are simply not there in the EDID. Call it manufacturers safety, I call it manucafturers dumbness. Anyway, what I like is full list of modes from 640x480 to maximum supported with every single refresh rate mode which wont kill my eyes (85+ Hz). Usually the highest modes aren't there even if the display supports them. Missing refresh rate modes are the most typical flaw here.

Ichat video not working- giving error

I have successfully used ichat video when I hook my mac directly to my cable modem. But it errors out when I have my typical cabling in place. Comcast cable modem, Vonage box, netgear router, then imac computer. In that sinario, my video ichat doesn't work. At this time, I really don't understand opening ports, but went into my netgear settings and have port forwarding enabled with my computer IP address. I also have UPnp turned on. Any other suggestions?

Not exactly.
Many routers and modems now come with Protection features that are in effect Firewalls but can be regarded to some extent as filters.
+Denial Of Service Attacks (DoS)+ hark back to the days when people would gang together to bring down large company Web servers by all logging into a web page and hitting refresh again and again.
This would tend to overload the internet service that server had causing it to crash.
With higher speed internet connection and faster computers this can almost be done by one person and a bit of scripting.
Wiki on this
So.... The manufacturers have built in DoS Protection that stops any connection on the port it is happening on - if it feels/judges that the data is "Too Much Too Fast". This is designed to stop you losing your whole internet connection.
From there you have to consider the risk.
Are you a big enough target for anyone ?
Are you likely to be "Discovered" on-line for anyone malicious enough to be doing this on a more random basis ?
+Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI)+ basically judges whether the data stream is legitimate
Wiki again
In addition to this a device may also have it's own Firewall.
Much like the one on a computer this will be the thing you are thinking off in terms of stopping unwanted intrusions by allowing or not allowing various ports.
Some autopmatically open any port you have in the method used to open ports.
Some need setting in both places as it were (both Port Forwarding/Port Triggering/UPnP/DMZ and the firewall)
Now the thing here to remember that on most devices the ports below port 1024 are not subject to NAT and are therefore open anyway.
NAT is the bit that routes data on one port to a port with an IP to make sure it goes to the computer or device it should.
As web browsing and mail apps tend to use ports below 1024 then this is why you can almost always get on the the Internet (Web Browse) and get email - almost no matter how you set up your LAN (connection devices).
As most attacks are going to be in email form or malicious websites using malicious Flash setups (See this on UPnP on Wiki) the need for a firewall per se drops off.
NAT itself tends to hide you from the Internet Directly.
Firewalls do offer you at least the idea of where data is coming and going (but it is surprising how many applications "Call home" when launched (Advised of a new version of something ?)
So in summary.
DOS a or SPI are useful if you think or know you may be attacked in that fashion.
They are additional features to any other firewall and the NAT Process.
They are, on the whole, fairly arbitrary in the way they act with no adjustment.
Faster Internet services are likely to bump into these settings more and more doing more common action like Streaming a video.
On some devices the amount of data in iChat Video from a fast internet service can bump into them particularly in Leopard where all the data is on one port.
I hope this helps.

Problem with ATV refresh rates and frame rates

I live in Australia and as such I am subject to PAL, so when I set my ATV up I set it to 720P 50Hz, when I purchased a TV season the episodes were running at 25fps and played back flawlessly with no dropped or added frames. My problem occurs when I download movies, all the movies I have bought are running at 24fps and suffer from quite noticeable jitter, almost like the 24th frame is duplicated and added as the 25th frame, I assume it is something like this as the pause happens every second.
So has anyone had a problem similar to this and if so what do you do about it?
Does the ATV playback all sources (24/25) smoothly even if it has to convert?
Could it be caused by my TV?
Any help to any of these questions would be great.
Thanks.
Tim.

With my particular Apple TV setup and TV combination, I find that setting to 1080p (60hZ) gives my the best all-round round results.
This does result in -slightly- jerky motion with 25fps material (especially old British TV shows), but it's bearable. It's particularly noticeable with sideways scrolling text and credits.
The one thing that is peculiar on my setup is if I use 720p (either @60hz or 50hz) and watch an iTunes-purchased HD episode that is encoded at 24fps I get very odd motion effects indeed. Every few seconds the video appears to speed up almost like it is 'catching up' with lost frames - very hard to explain exactly how it looks. Anyway I set to 1080p and this effect is gone completely. It also goes away if I set to 1080i. I think something queer is going on with 720p on the Apple TV (at least with my TV there is). This happens with both HDMI and component outputs.
It may be worth trying 1080i at either 50 or 60Hz if your set can't do 1080p.
I would also suggest that 60hz in theory should give a smoother motion for 24fps playback than 50Hz.
My basic problem with all this is that on even a cheap DVD player if a disk is 50Hz, the player switches to 50Hz output and if it is 60Hz, it will change to 60Hz. The Apple TV stays fixed. It's a shame it can't autoswitch refresh rates.

Second display refresh rate lower in Mac OSX than Windows

I use a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2070SB CRT monitor connected to my MacBok via a miniDVI to VGA adapter; I span the desktop on both monitors (i.e. I do not use the Mirror Displays option). I use this configuration in both Mac OSX and Windows (via bootcamp). On Windows, I can set the refreesh rate of my CRT monitor to 75 Hz at 1600x1200, but I am stuck to 60 Hz on Mac OSX at 1600x1200. To get a more respectable refresh rate on my CRT, I need to lower the resolution to 1400x1050.
Obviously, the video card of the MacBook can handle a second display at 1600x1200 at 75 Hz since I can do that on Windows. Any ideas how to get the same result on Mac OSX?

Either DisplayConfigX or SwitchRes X should be able to remedy this. But I am at a loss to explain why OS X would itself not allow for the 75Hz choice.

The refresh rate for Mac mini 2014 at 3840x2160 using Thunderbolt

Here: http://www.apple.com/mac-mini/specs/
, it says that the refresh rate for resolution 3840x2160 for HDMI is 30 Hz.
I'm wondering if it's the same using Thunderbolt, or more correctly DisplayPort.
Thanks!

Ok, thanks!
If I could ask another question regarding this... is 30 Hz poor even for desktop work? Or movies.
I believe the 30Hz is progressive and therefore for movies/video would normally look quite good. However for sports e.g. soccer which has a fast moving object i.e. the ball it would be less good. I have also seen comments suggesting that for computer use it is also less desirable particularly when you are scrolling as this entails affectively the entire screen image 'moving fast'.
This is not based on personal use as I cannot afford a 4K screen yet myself. However for DVDs 24p is considered a to give a good image for movies and this I can confirm from personal experience so 30p should be even better. Obviously 60p is better still but for that you need either a Mac Pro, iMac or MacBook Pro Retina.
It is probably going to depend on what you will be using it for. Perhaps you should consider spending a little more for a MacBook Pro Retina which can do 60 Hz.

Solaris8+patch display refresh rate problem

I have installed the 109401-05 video patch for Solaris8 to update the video
card drivers. But now at 1600x1200 screen resolution the maximum display
refresh rate is always 60Hz, altough higher settings in kdmconfig. The behaviour is similar at 1280x1024, but the max. rate is 80Hz. I have tryed
this with the ATI Xpert2000pro and Xpert98 graphic cards.
Without the patch the refresh rate is OK (with the Xpert98 card). The
motherboard is Abit KT7.
Does anybody know what could be the problem?
Thanks, Albin

Hmm, if the refresh rate was OK before you installed the 109401-05
video driver patch, why don't you uninstall that patch? Or do you
need some other bugfix included in 109401-05?
Otherwise the 60Hz problem problem with certain old ATI cards is not unknown to me:
See this Solarisonintel posting for a possible solution.

Changing default monitor refresh rate

Hello-
I have just installed x86 Solaris8 on my system at home. I have a TNT2 Ultra card and I am using the default Nvidia TNT2 drivers included with the install on a Hitachi Superscan Monitor. I am capable of displaying the Solaris CDE at 1600x1200 but I have display issuesthat force me to reset my vertical and horizontal positioning every time I turn on the monitor or ever time the screen resolution changes.
This problem has existed ever since I got my videocard back whenI still had Win98 on the machine. The only way to correct it was to set the default refresh rate for all resolutions to 60Hz.
Is it possible to do this in Solaris8 and how?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Daniel J. Noah

stop the dtlogin, login on the text console, and run kdmconfig.
In kdmconfig, choose the video card menu entry, don't make changes
to the video card but use on of the multifrequency monitor entries.
For example, the multifrequency monitor entry upto 110kHz should give
~85 Hz refresh rate at 1600x1200, use one of lower freq. entries to
tune down the refresh rate...
