Your Windows Audio settings are wrong. To do it with just LAV Audio you need to match the Windows Audio settings with the number of channels. ReClock gave you channel matching with exclusive mode, but, without exclusive mode the channels must match. Most likely you have it set to stereo.

I think that I found a potential issue.

I am using LAV Splitter to play BD inside the DVBViewer (it detects the main movie mpls by itself and opens it with LAV). When stopping playback, the DVBViewer remembers the position and will continue from there when restarting playback. This seems to cause problems with certain disks, e.g. "Angels and Daemons" (Illuminati). The DVBViewer just crashes with a C++ exception. I found out that the main movie is scattered among many m2ts files. I think that this happens when playback is stopped and resumed after the first m2ts file.

May this be a seeking bug with seamless branching BD's?

Found a small bug with TTA, the last buffer seems to be dropped at the end of playback. Don't know if this is a avformat problem or even avcodec problem. This problem is reproduceable with ANY .tta file I have. They were encoded with official ttaenc.exe, latest version.

Hi CiNcH! I don't have this problem here, just checked it with Illuminati. Do you use one of the latest ffdshow builds where nevcairiel provided a patch for crashes in H.264 DXVA playback? Even build 3878 was instable, it always crashed at the same playback position of a special movie. With build 3882 this was gone. (and i compiled my own build right after nev's fix, this was also stable)

I only have one issue with .mpls playback: when i watch a movie (.mpls / .m2ts) and select another mpls playlist (e.g. bonus material) while the current one is still playing back, then LAV starts accessing the disk but never ends. I have to kill the host program with the task manager. Sometimes the first change between .mpls files works but at the latest the third or fourth change causes this behaviour with all movies that i own. I start a new playback while another playback is still running. The original filter in DVBViewer does not show this behaviour.

You can confirm that this is the problem by simply going into the ffdshow audio config, and on the Output tab, unselect every format except 32-bit float. If you get the same distortions, thats the problem.
You are very right. Tested and confirmed. The only format not working was 32 bit floating. I have never thought about those options since it has just been working.

Are selectable output any near in the future? I can unfortunately not use LAV audio until this is possible :/

Many thanks for pointing this out. Now I at least know why!

DirectVobSub


Note: Sorry, I don't know the right word for what I'm trying to achieve in DirectVobSub, is it video overlay???

Already tried to asked support in other thread but no one answering me. I decided to ask here cause people here are accommodating
ney2x,
if you do insist on using DirectVobSub instead of FFDShow subtitles (either in the decoder or in the separate filter) you can try the option "Vertical padding" in VobSub's General tab. I remember I used it a long time ago but I think it's broken in the latest versions - not sure.

You could try to update your audio drivers. Wich OS are you running? Since Vista, audio conversions are done by CPU, so windows will convert the formats. In XP a driver update might also add CPU conversion of float to integer.

You could also use Reclock to convert from floating point to integer.

I see. I am using latest ICL build 3853 by clsid. Think I will switch to the generic builds then. I just had the problem that DVBViewer always crashed when trying to resume the movie. Only after resetting position to 0 it worked again. Thought this could be due to seamless branching and a seeking error. Guess I will have to do more serious testing on this issue then, this time with latest ffdshow build however.

My HTPC is on WinXP.
Not sure if there are any updated drivers.
I can look but it is always hard to find good drivers for such old hardware.

But since I have a "new" GPU which handles even bluray material I see no point in buying new hardware just because...

I will look for newer driver.

BloodySword> Thanks for reclock tips. I will consider. However I cannot use this if it will mess with the bitstreaming.

Yeah, I'm completely getting rid of ffdshow and I'll be using LAV Suite (CUVID/Filter). Anyways, my problem solved today, by adjusting the vertical placement and unchecking "Positions subtitle relative to the video frame"





And also I am using DirectVobSub v2.40.3164 . Oh! The reason I used separate subtitle filter is because I also used Windows Media Center (Windows 7 x64).

You can also use MPC-HC as default player in "Windows Media Center (Windows 7 x64)" and you'll not need any other filters

Vertical padding has been broken for quite some time now. If someone can narrow down the range of revisions in which it got broken, it would increase the chance of a quick fix. So if anyone is bored and wants to do some testing, please do!

Do you know a site to where I can download different revisions of VSFilter.dll only? Cause I can't parallel download here

Edit: Upon thorough testing different revisions I managed to find the last working "vertical padding" which is DirectVobSub v2.40.2.3104_x86 and from DirectVobSub v2.40.2.3112 onwards are broken. FYI.

Question:
Is CCCP Project related to MPC-HC Team? Cause I just found out awhile ago that their revisions of VSFilter are not broken.

Are you sure 3104 is working? Because afaik it was broken long before that.

CCCP probably has some custom code. Perhaps they have already located the bug.

Tried with reclock to convert to 16 bit integer. Kind of work. Sound is good but I get other problems. Easier for me to stick with ffdshow for now.

But the problem with 3104 is it stays in my system tray and consuming memory even after exiting the player.

And also I want to report the latest revision DirectVobSub v2.40.3237 still broken. I thought someone fixed it but still a no go...

This maybe my last post regarding DirectVobSub cause this is OFF-TOPIC. Thanks for your time.

I'm using Zoom Player and neither 3042 nor 3104 works as expected with vertical padding. Version from CCCP works but there is a problem with aspect ratio on files wider than 16:9 (I use 16:9 extension).

EDIT: problem with aspect ratio was pure ZP problem, solved. As I understand CCCP custom patches only revert particular MPC-HC revisions, 339 and 1096 to be exact.
Sorry for offtopic.
