I have a couple of avi files that crash the player when using the vmr9 (renderless) renderer but they work with the system default renderer. I have attached the log file from dr watson if thats of any help.
Attached Files
File Type: zip drwtsn32.zip (12.3 KB, 35 views)

So a correction. Celtic cares about XP, but not themes. Still if I knew what the problem was, I would fix it.
Well I never had problems with running your builds on XP (I used your iirc August build for couple of months). Apart from classic theme (and even putting xml manifest in the folder with mpc didn't help).

I tested the default XP theme and it ran fine here.

Think it was the 2005.11.27 build that wouldn't run under XP.

New build by celtic_druid.
It has a new (?) checkbox called "VMR9 mixer mode" and i've not yet figured out what it does...

From the tooltip/rc file.

"Puts VMR9 (renderless) into mixer mode, this means most of the controls on its property page will work and it will use a separate worker thread to renderer frames."

Odd, I get the avi splitter tooltip for Haali's renderer.

Gabest sent me his latest build yesterday, and I tried it with mov files containing AAC/AVC. It worked great! How does Celtic's latest build work with mov files containing AAC/AVC? (I don't have time to try it). Excuse me if it has already been answered... I don't have time to follow this thread that much either as I used to

Just tested Celtic Druid's most recent build with MOV's containing 2Ch and 6Ch AAC audio and it seems to be working okay

Yeah... I notice this too!

Personally I would have liked to have seen separate "MP4" and "MOV" selectivity.... I don't like the thought of seeing "glorious" MP4 lumped together with "crappy old" MOV


Cheers

Awesome!

With the latest Option "VMR9 mixer mode", (hardware)deinterlacing and the other image enhancing stuff from the Nvidia Mpeg2 Decoder now finally work in the VMR9 (renderless) mode!
Without "VMR9 mixer mode", the Nvidia Decoder says all is ok and that it is working in the DirectX VA modus A, but deinterlacing simply doesnt work. Now with "VMR9 mixer mode" it finally works as expected
VMR9 (windowed mode) always worked but, as you know, it lacks subtitles and Shaders.

And all my HD MOV Trailers from Apple Site now work too with internal splitter!

Thankyou Gabest!

PS. Since newest GPUs (Geforce 6-7; Ati R1xxx) do (or shortly will) support AVC accelleration in Hardware per DirectX VA -and given complexity of HD AVC files, this is much needed- what about acceleration support with MPC + ffdshow?, I guess it's ffdshow that needs to be adapted, right?
Anybody knows this is planned for future?

Have you tried the CoreAVC direct-show decoder filter?

Are you talking about playing DVD-s / VOB files ?
nVidia Purevideo decoder is needed for this ?

Thanks

No, not yet.
Until now I thought it was (just) some new (still alpha/beta) AVC decoder that was reported to be even faster than ffdshow. Does it really support hardware decoding? - I think i have to do some googling

All mpeg2 Files, normal Vobs (DVD) but DVD-s Streams too, also .tp files (Transport Streams).
The Nvidia Purevideo decoder is definately not needed for watching those files, intergrated mpeg2 of MPC works well, BUT, if you want those extra Viedo Features of Geforce6+ Class GPUs (hardware acceleration, deinterlacing etc: http://www.nvidia.com/page/purevideo_support.html ), you need some Mpeg2 decoder that supports those features (through DirectX VA).
That can be the Nvidia Purevideo decoder but afaik also new versions of PowerDVD and WinDVD support it. Ati does also support similar features through Directx VA (and those even work then with the Nvidia Purevideo decoder).

I have some HD Mpeg2 files that use 100% CPU (XP3200+) with MPC mpeg2 decoder. With Nvidia Purevideo decoder, I have 40% CPU and better image quality.

This is nice-to-have for mpeg2, but for AVC, acceleration is going to be really important.

Anyone else having troubles with embedded subtitles in MP4? Timedtext subs work for me, but VSFilter doesn't get loaded for vobsubs. The same files work ok with Haali's splitter.

purevideo should be boycotted just because it's a total ripoff to advertise cards with features and then you can only use this wondertool if you pay another 10-20 bucks on it and only with one decoder or others that license the tech for cash, not talking about it only working on one single OS.

ATI and NVIDIA are both big assholes, no open usable technology, only totally closed properietary stuff. It's sad ppl won't boycott both, but prolly it's more important to get the new games and stuff running no matter if the tech is total properietary. If there'd only be one good chip designer that'd do all this openly and have better performance than both of those evil companies, they could close their lousy companies.

there is no open standard for hardware acceleration of h.264 comparable to dxva for mpeg-2 (maybe because m$ didnt want to support h.264?)
therefore the card manufacturers are forced to develop something on their own (which doesnt mean that it wouldnt have been possible that they join forces and develop something together instead of two different systems)
