Why don't you tell us more about your system (CPU/RAM/Graphics Card/Operating System)?

I think you should post this question in MPC-HC thread.

You can't control position of the pgs/dvb subtitles. Unfortunately there is a bug in the ISR and if window size is not exactly the same aspect ratio as video frame subtitles will be wrong positioned.

As for text (.srt) subtitles you can change their position in options (options->default style->screen alignment and margins) just increase bottom margin to move subtitles higher

It does it because it's going into "exclusive" mode. I don't understand exactly why it has to do that but I know it does in order to best utilize the hardware decoding... It's not a bug, or something that should annoy you. This is a whole new generation of video/hardware decoding, it just works different. I'd just be happy that it works at all and looks as nice as it does.

Is there an IRC channel for madVR?

I thought of that too and that's why I disabled



however it's not very clear to me that, that option is actually disabling it whole nor do I know what exclusive means... perhaps the author will come and shine light upon me on this "issue"

The behavior nekrovski described is not caused by Fullscreen Exclusive mode. This has always been a madVR quirk, even with Fullscreen Windowed mode. The slower your GPU, the longer that first frame will be incorrectly stretched to desktop resolution.

That said, Fullscreen Exclusive does take a split-second longer to enter Fullscreen than Windowed, which can potentially make this stretching anomaly more obvious.

Madshi, do you know why this MBAFF AVC video isn't deinterlaced by MadVR in auto mode (using LAV & MPC-HC)? EVR plays it back fine (25 fps during first ~10 s, 50 fps for last ~20 s) but MadVR never turns deinterlacing on.

It looks like the first few seconds are actually progressive, and this information also ends up in the media type, which triggers madVR to believe the file is actually progressive.
LAV also thinks this at first, but once it switches to MBAFF, LAV notices and informs madVR with a new media type (switches from interlace flags 0x0 to 0x81), but this is not enough, apparently.

You can actually fix this by setting LAV to "Aggressive Deinterlacing", this flags the stream differently and overwrites madVRs bitstream info (this uses interlace flags 0x1)

Thanks for the explanation. Does this require a change in MadVR to fix (rather than workaround) then? Also, would enabling "Aggressive Deinterlacing" have any adverse effects on other files?

Because of many decoders misbehaving and setting interlaced flags wrong, i don't think madshi wanted the behaviour much different (i have discussed this with him before )

Anyway, Aggressive Deinterlacing usually doesn't have any real downsides with hardware deinterlacing, because the HW Deinterlacer can figure out if something needs deinterlacing before doing it, but with YADIF it may degrade quality a bit on mixed content (mixed progressive/interlaced).
Pure progressive content is not affected at all by the setting.

Interestingly, although the "Aggressive Deinterlacing" workaround works for the ~hour of interlaced video after the progressive title sequence, it doesn't work for the pre-titles section, which is definitely interlaced video but not being detected as such. Tis possible the metadata is wrong in this section. Sample here.

IRC channel anyone? Maybe we could start one on NewNet? irc.virtual-dope.com #madvr if anyone is interested...

hey guys, just wondering if I will get frame drops no matter what I do unless i get reclock? I managed to get my display refresh to a 23.976xx something - madVR displays that, but still I get a 1 frame repeat every 12-13 minutes - or so the OSD shows. Unless I configured something in madVR badly? Cheers

I think this would be a right time to make use of IRC for discussions related to madVR since the response time may be quicker for simple questions.

And to keep doom9 updated we can log the channel and maybe madshi could add a link to the log in the first post?

I honestly don't think matching rates can stop frame drops repeats. I was able to match my playback rate to my display rate reported by madvr down to like 0.0001hz using svp interpolation.

I still get drops. Madshi suggested it could be due to the clock deviation so your display will never exactly be 23.976. For those brief moments I guess you could drop a frame. That's my understanding
I actually made adjustments to my playback rate upwards in tiny increments using svp until I got 0 frame drops but can't really be sure that im not getting frame repeats. I think there's always a need for some software solution to sort out this type of problem I guess. Matching rates is good but not enough.

For some reason when I drag MPC-HC to my second screen MPC-HC freezes and creates a dump file. This just started happening out of the blue...

I have the exact same problem! Good to see it probably isn't my set-up.

I see, thanks I guess I can live with 2 or 3 frame skips now and then, just was happy i managed to create a custom resolution that actually does 23.976

If you don't like the "barely supported" nature of Reclock these days There are alternatives players that encorporate "Reclock-like" technology that work together with MadVR, both mediaportal and JRiver MediaCenter
for example.

I don't use Mediaportal but JRiver MC is now my normal HTPC frontend and they are now aggressively incorporating both the latest MadVR and LAV builds (in fact they somewhat overzeleousy included a LAV beta in a full release a few days ago!). JRiver MC includes Videoclock which has all the benefits of Reclock in a supported package with LAV and MadVR.
