Try checking your decoder's info under the play->filters menu. Take note, it only shows DXVA when using native, not copy-back/CUVID/QuickSync. MadVR's own OSD also show this info (CTRL+J to show/hide). Perhaps try updating MPC-HC? The nightly builds from nightly.mpc-hc.org get the bleeding edge features. |

Sorry, can't answer for minimum, but I use a 5670 and a 6670 (both 1 GB passive Sapphire versions), and they play most things with Jinc 3 + AR for both chroma and image scaling. You need to think about what you're trying to render. I don't have any 1080p stuff to test with, no 60 fps.

I've made couple comparisons and don't see any differences between EVR (custom presenter) and madVR. What am I doing wrong?

Though for EVR, you don't get options such as smooth motion or color management. |

In this case alt+TAB shows the madVR IvideoWindow. I've stumbled upon another weird thing on my ATI. I've begun to code a more responsive OSD with IOsdServices::OsdSetRenderCallback. It works great. Yet on this ATI computer, any call using the madVR d3d device fails with D3DERR_INVALIDCALL. It only works when Exclusive mode is enabled AND "present several frames in advance" is disabled... I've tried to revert back to older driver with the same result. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong... |

With the (custom presenter) variant of EVR you can enable lcms-based color management, which applies the system-installed ICC profile - something madVR doesn't support as far as I can tell. Of course, madVR has yCMS and 3DLUTs instead - as well as other desirable features.

I have tested the Upscaling Algorithms.
I have made few videos of several resolution patterns from: http://www.belle-nuit.com/test-chart I captured the screen with CamStudio and a Lossless codec. After that I have converted the original 4:4:4 videos to other chroma modes, 4:2:2 and 4:2:0, using x264. Here the fun begins. For native HD content and HD monitor the Image Upscaling does nothing (obviously). But for lower resolutions it matters very much (more later). BUT, Chroma Upscaling is critical both for native HD and lower. As HD chroma is only half the resolution in each direction (4:2:0) (960x540). And visibly VERY lossy compared to the original 4:4:4 video. After several hours of fun I came to the conclusion that Lanczon 3+AR is clear winner for Image & definitely Chroma (you read correctly NOT Jinc3). Image Upscaling: For image upscaling I have concluded that I'd rather have a little aliasing instead of lost detail. Therefor Lanczos 3/4+AR wins here in every resolution especially lower ones like DVD. Chroma Upscaling: HD Chroma is "low res" compared to the luma, therefor the upscaling working all the time here, 480 to 1080 (actually 240 to 540). Winner: Lanczos 3/4+AR Why? I have found that Jic3+AR gives me artifacts in HD and lower Chromas, whether Jinc3 (no AR) or Lanczos+AR did not. And Anti-Ringing IS important, so Jinc without AR is a No-Go. Don't worry, I am not all words. Here are some Chroma Upscaling comparison images: Lanczos3+AR: Jinc3+AR: Look at the Red/Cyan steps above and below the number 4. You can see Jinc+AR has a "Shade" (Its not even in the middle) compared to the even looking Lanczos. This is in HD chroma (960x540) and NO image scaling at all (1:1 pixel perfect). Jinc3 without AR has no artifacts, BUT has strong ringing. Lower res chromas like DVD have even more artifacts with Jinc. Low-Res upscaling (DVD to HD): Original resolution of the image I have created is 720x480. The upscaled images are full size of my 1920x1200 monitor, then cropped. Original: * Image resolution is 720x480. Lanczos3+AR: Jinc3+AR: All in all. Lanczos 3/4 + AR is the winner for me for both Chroma & Image resizing. EDIT: I attached a zip file containing three short videos (mkv) that you can play and test Chroma and Resizing Algorithms. 1. DVD Resolution = for Image Upscaling comparison. 2. DVD Chroma 4:2:0 = For Chroma Upscaling comparison. 3. DVD Chroma 4:4:4 = Original Chroma for comparison. How To: Pause the video and go crazy with the Upscaling modes. Edit2: All three versions 1080p included can be downloaded from here: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/xdwi..._Test_Patterns or here: http://www.4shared.com/folder/zsodQz...Test_Patt.html Last edited by James Freeman; 31st October 2013 at 16:34. |

Fair enough! Well, J3AR is such a GPU hog on my HD7850 that I'll try this recommendation on live content as it can easily reach +80% load on 30fps 1080p chroma upscale + FRC + custom PS shaders(65% for 24fps)
BTW, PotP's coder has been kind enough to look into a few bugs when using its D3D GUI so soon enough it'll be entirely usable with mVR and that's great news as I've been looking forward to be able to use it without breaking mVR's FSE for a while, all in good time |

Your absolutely right.
I see NO difference what so ever in real videos. But hey, the devil is in the details. and we are using madvr and talking about chromas for a reason. Last edited by James Freeman; 31st October 2013 at 14:36. |

When you are simply watching a film, a slightly softer image is easily ignored, aliasing is not. Quote:
But artificial patterns are not always the best thing to use when testing. If you only looked at a chroma burst pattern, you would conclude that Lanczos 8 with no anti-ringing is the best choice for chroma. In the real world, there is very little difference - but again, Jinc 3 AR is going to guarantee there is less chance of aliasing than Lanczos 3 AR. Overall though, when considering image quality and performance, there is basically no reason to use anything more than Bicubic 75+AR for chroma. There are one or two rare exceptions, but those would look bad with Lanczos 3 AR or Jinc 3 AR too. Quote:
The significant reduction in aliasing on the X, however, is something that has considerable real-world benefits when upscaling video. When upscaling SD, aliasing, then ringing, are by far the biggest factors for image quality. Most SD sources have been so compressed/filtered that there is very little high frequency detail remaining, just artifacts. In many cases it is actually better for image quality to lose the highest frequency information from the image, because that is typically going to be mosquito noise. For these reasons, I prefer to use either Jinc 3+AR, or SoftCubic 80 when upscaling SD video. When upscaling 720p content to 1080p, Lanczos 3 AR is a reasonable choice (aliasing is generally less of a concern) though I still prefer to use Jinc 3+AR. SoftCubic is generally too soft with HD content. To use an old example: Quote:
There is very little - if any - actual detail lost from using SoftCubic, but there is considerably less ringing and sharpening artifacts - and that's when compared to Jinc 3 AR, not Lanczos 3 AR which looks worse. |
