Here you go, Inspector. Read the Readme to see how to enable D3D. Let me know if anything is amiss and I'll get right on it.

EDIT: Open each indexer and then close it right away to create the new INI file entry. Then edit it as described in the Readme.

Christmas in September! I will try these first thing tomorrow morning. Thank you very much.

Hello there. I have some newbie questions to neuron2.
1. Do you have any plans on supporting Radeons in future?
2. What about SLI support?
3. Is it possible to have Radeon and Geforce cards on one computer? Like Radeon HD 5870 for games and geforce 8600 for decoding?

Thanks.

1. Don't know what a Radeon is. If it is ATI, then I can't do anything until an apprroriate API is released.
2. No. And I don't see the point of it.
3. Don't know.

Two video cards => two VP2/3 => x2 speed, isnt?

it dosnt work like that firebird. I got a Nvidia GTX 260 and when I test my max frames in DGAVCIndexNV (disable display and press F5 for Preview), it gives med around 52 fps. I think a GTX 260 can do alot more then that, because its only 4 fps more then my 'old' Nvidia Geforce 9500 GT, so I think the driver is limit to only use a small part of the GFX card. So SLI will give you nothing, not even sure the driver even support it.

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 06:23

I finally had an opportunity to test the version that relies on D3D. The MPEG-2 and AVC tools work with no apparent issues, and I'll have to hunt down some 1080i AVC samples from the mplayer samples bin to round out the tests. DGVC1IndexNV, though, pops up the "Error 100: Failed to create video decoder" warning when opening (so far) 1080i or 1080p VC1 content. I've modified the .ini file per your instructions. Maybe I'm missing something...thanks!

aegisofrime · 25th September 2009, 07:00

firebird, if I'm not wrong, the part of the card that does the actual decoding and what have you is an independent ASIC that is seperate from the GPU itself. So SLI will be pretty much useless.

OK, I know the problem and have a fix. I'm just looking at some cropping issues reported in the main thread. Should up the fix shortly. Thanks for your test results.

Way back at the start of development is was stated by a nvidia engineer that the VP is clocked at the same speed on all cards. Hence why all cards have virtually the same speed.

I have updated NV beta 10 to fix VC1 with UseD3D and to fix a cropping bug with Load Project.

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 15:15

Thank you! That seems to have fixed it, and DGVC1IndexNV now opens files and presents the cropping prompt (1088 to 1080) correctly.

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 15:41

OK, so after extensive attempts to check all variables, I've found that when loading a 1920x1080i VC1 stream (in the original Blu-ray M2TS container) with no other options than DGSource() generates the green line mentioned in the other thread. MeGUI's AVS Script creator shows the green line no matter what; MPC-HC only shows the line if single-rate NV deinterlacing and/or resizing is applied.

Guest · 25th September 2009, 15:59

Without cropping?

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 16:42

This happens with or without accepting the prompt to crop from 1088->1080: if cropping is applied, then the green bar is at the top of the frame; if cropping is not applied, then the green bar is at the bottom.

Guest · 25th September 2009, 18:23

I'll test some more but I need to know if it is just you people with the older drivers that are experiencing this.

Can you give me a stream fragment that causes this?

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 18:54

Here's the first minute of the file with which I spotted the initial issue. I can reproduce the problem using this segment.

No green bars here. I don't have MEGUI. What happens when you open the simple script in VirtualDub?

Inspector.Gadget · 25th September 2009, 19:47

Opening the simple script (with NV cropping 1088->1080) shows the green bar at the top.

Guest · 25th September 2009, 20:26

What does File/File information... say about the file size?
