Hello,

I've installed MadVR (latest version)
and this is my system :

HP Pavilion 300-030NB
Windows 10 - 64-bit
i3 - 4gb ram - intel HD 4400 graphics
Latest mediaportal
Latest LAV codec - set to dvxa2 copy back

Connected to my Samsung UEJS9000 tv ( maximum refresh rate 30hz ( according to the "windows settings page" )

I had setup MadVR, according to what different users of an intel HD graphics 4000 (I have 4400) said, which was to use dvxa2 settings and such.

But nothing seemed to prevent my video from not playing smooth/stuttering.

I've tried numerous settings and different codecs ( Lav, CoreAvc Pro ), but nothing seemed to give me smooth playback.

Until I tried the setting under "Devices - Generic PnP Monitor - display modes"
"list all display modes madVR may switch to"

The default setting had nothing in it, so I've now set it to "1080p23" and it worked.

When I try to use 2160p23, it gives a black screen with audio only ( Lav codec - dvxa2 copy-back )
I guess the 2160p23 gives the same result as when you leave the field blank.

So I'll use 1080p23 for now.

But that leaves me thinking, now when a video is played, it will play in 1080p on a 2160p screen.
So now it's not upscaling anything, right ?

So is there any difference in quality now with this setting to "1080p23"
between MadVR and the EVR renderer option in mediaportal settings ?

I also had almost everything checked on the settings page of "Trade quality for performance".

I'm going to uncheck one at a time now and see if quality can improve without performance.

Is there any way to upscale my 1080p video's to 4k resolution with this intel 4400 HD Graphics and have smooth video playback?
Or am I stuck with the 1080p23 setting for now ?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings,
Soxbrother
