Screenshot doesn't show anything, because BE changes the way display works. In other words - to see difference we need to take photo of screen (like here:http://blog.gsmarena.com/heres-what-sony-ericsson-mobile-bravia-engine-really-does-review/)

Go to CWM. wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, & fix permission. no album FC for me. And did you edit the build.prop yet? *I've installed it, but did'nt see any difference yet. Maybe because I already unlock my bootloader?

Readings the mods , it won`t make a good quality piece of video look better (for a very noticeable difference) , noise reduction etc would work better on a low bitrate video or a video thats been stretched to fit the screen .
There wont be a "gasp" moment for any modifications , the advantages are that you can use a lower bitrate to encode any films you want to keep on your phone but still keep the same perceivable quality to them . One of the things about the human eye is that it sets an "acceptable" quality standard , you`ll have trouble looking objectively .
If you want to test it , go to Youtube , find a video that has the option to play in 240 , 360 , 480, 720 - rip them all to your hard disk --> then onto your phone . Play them back and see what difference the engine makes to the same video at different bitrates/resolutions .
Next bit is for those that dont know the video terms - (put basically) bitrate is the amount of data used to describe each frame , the more data , the higher the quality (and filesize) . Resolution is the physical size on screen of the video , small box in the middle is a small resolution etc etc BUT the higher the resolution , the higher the bitrate needed to fully capture the data on the frame (a lower resolution video can look far better than a bigger resolution one at the same bitrate as the software will just fill the screen with artifacts) . Quality of a video is a mixture of the quality of the video it was encoded from , its resolution and its bitrate and in this case - the quality of the playback engine . Artifacts - rectangles/blocks on the screen of solid colour , usually seen during movement on the screen (the bitrate isnt high enough) .
To repeat myself , if youre watching a video that is good quality already , you wont see much difference (if any) .

you said this:
Delete this line
ro.service.swiqi.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi.enable=1
And add this line
ro.service.swiqi2.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi2.enable=1
is it not easier to add the 2 behind these lines?
ro.service.swiqi2.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi2.enable=1
and then save exit, and reboot
