Madshi, if you are out there...
I reinstalled Vista on my PC over the weekend. And the occasional glitch in playback I was getting is gone (it wasn't a madVR thing, it happened in all players, all setups). I've now watched two complete movies, without the slightest jump/jerk/stutter/nothing. Perfectly smooth, for hours on end. My setup is Reclock and madVR in Zoomplayer, with Ffdshow for the video decoder (well, running wmv9 inside ffdshow for VC-1), and madFLAC feeding Ffdshow Audio. Display is a secondary monitor running 1920*1080 interlaced at 96hz (48hz interlaced to Powerstrip). I do have stability issues when resizing the window, or sometimes on starting play, or restarting play. But as far as I am concerned the smooth playback features work fine. However, it took a while to come good. After installation, and after Reclock settled down, I was still getting jerky playback. After a while, and a few restarts of Zoom Player it came good....really good. Spookily smooth. I tried Win7, but had tearing and jerkiness with a similar setup (identical except I was running 1080p 48hz as I couldn't get interlacing to work on Win7). So thank you for you efforts so far, this is the smoothest playback I have ever seen from a PC. And it does seem to me that Vista32 is still the path of least resistance for a HTPC. Mark Edit: I should add that I trimmed Vista down after installation. Turned off lots of services, the UAC, indexing, error reporting...lotsa crap. Last edited by Mark_A_W; 3rd July 2009 at 03:54. |

This is good to hear, but IMO judder on start/seek is just not acceptable. Not a criticism of MadVR, I know smoothness is still work in progress. But any solution that has this issue just does not work for any system that is used by non HTPC techheads! or anyone who wants what should be a "normal" click and play solution.

What startup/seek judder? It's perfect I tell ya. The stability issues I mentioned are literally stability issue....madVR crashes out quite a lot. But as madshi mentions buggy about 10 times in the description for v0.10, that is to be expected. |

I followed the Black Viper "Safe" settings. Turned off about 10 I guess. And turned of the UAC, Indexing and events notification. Less than 30? You're brave. Last edited by Mark_A_W; 4th July 2009 at 06:22. |

does anyone know how madvr (currently) performs with 1080p .mkv files (x264 encodes (multithreaded); h264 & vc-1 remuxes) on nvidia's integrated graphic chips 9400 and 8300, when using ffdshow and also when (down)scaling is involved?

I can play back PAL DVD at 24fps (reclock) upscaled to 1080p using Mitchell-Netravali without any issues as well. I really doubt the 9400 could cope with downscaling 1080p content though. At least in the 0.10 release. Things have been pretty quiet here lately, any word on a new version of madVR? There's still quite a few issues with 0.10 |

thunderbolt - search to get the answer from the horse's mouth, but iirc .10 has shader code to do the color space conversion, which is what 3D LUT file does. But 3D LUT is more powerful and can correct for more things, including custom screen calibrations. This is all a work in progress.
