Well here goes.
I am using ffdshow to decode my mpeg4 content, mainly xvid though. And most players (MPC, ZP, ...) have options to switch between overlay mixer and VMR9&7. The problem however is that when using overlay mixer the playback is jerky, although no frames are dropped.
Another indication of this is when lookit at "Decoder FPS" in ffdshow properties, the framerate seems to jump from 0-60, when say in VMR9 mode its contant between 20-30, and the video is not jerky. However the picture with VMR9 is much to bright and the colors look kind of washed out, the picture also seems more blocky than with overlay mixer.
Something else I want to know is, what kind of overlay is bsplayer using then. It has 2 overlay modes (overlay1, overlay2). Overlay2 seems to be the normal overlay mixer and jerks, however with overlay1 the video is again playing fine with constant framerate in ffdshow properties.
So what could be the problem here, I want to use some other players as well?
