I had to revert to v0.79 in order to play without dropped frames every 5 seconds.

Sound like you have the identical problem as me... At least I'm not alone.

Well Version 0.78 worked for me out of the box on my HD 3400, Version 0.79 didn't. Version 0.80 Worked after 4 hours of continuous tinkering (I even activated settings usually not activated to get smooth playback like overshoot max latency). It works now with all my 720p video only in full screen exclusive mode. Windowed is borked dropped frames, glitches all 9 yards.

Anyone know how I can save the madVR settings? export its registry file?

EDIT Recanted. Drops frames as well!

EDIT2 I reset settings and deactivated decoding and Use separate device for presentation, lowered GPU queue to 6 and that seems to fixed it. Scaling is set at Bicubic 60 for all. So it seems Auto settings are fracked.

EDIT 3 HOLY! the quality is AWESOME with anime Thanks alot Madshi!

Yeah they were still full, it was in FSE mode. I found the problem, it was 'overshoot max frame latency' that was dropping the present queues
to 0-2 after a minute or so after starting playback (550 Ti running 7 x64.) I've got it disabled now (It did help with glitches earlier)

It's not the only thing causing that, not setting appropriate flush settings after presentation does it too. Setting up FSE optimally can be rather time consuming huh?

It seems like I either have to choose between keeping the present and render queues high and not dropping frames but getting the odd presentation error or having the queues drop right down but having zero presentation errors.
Finding the sweet spot isn't easy, overshooting the max frame latency does wonders for removing the glitches, if only it didn't drop the present and render queues so much..

Thanks looking forward to it.

0.80 fixed the black screen/freezes with auto queue with an X2300M.

The high priority build worked fine with X2300M and 9500GT in fact it worked a little better then 0.79 with the former gpu, it played 480p with fewer frame drops.

XBMC+LAV(Splitter/Video/Audio)+madVR would be so awesome. No longer would I need to invoke an external player. The ultimate Christmas gift!

Just so I am clear, we are not talking the old DSPlayer, we are talking an Eden version right?

I just tested that scenario, and sure enough, it works now!

Hi MikeY, im curious as to why you would want to output RGB32 from ffdshow to madVR instead of YV12?

Hi guys,

i was asking for advice about gpu for madvr few days ago.
I chose two cards:
ATI HD6770 or HD6870
I definitely need one of these, cause sapphire make these models with FLEX support, so no need for expensive active displayport adapter.

So the question is, is it worth the plus money to get the 6870?
The difference between them here is ~100$ (~30-40%), so pretty big.
Will i see any problems (regarding madvr) with the 6770 that i wont with the 6870?
Thanks!

Well I don't put myself in position of a pro. But I must ask you a few questions:
1. What type of Content do you have?
2. What is your setup like?
3. Did you compare the 2 cards in AMD website? http://www.amd.com/us/products/deskt...verview.aspx#2 vs http://www.amd.com/us/products/deskt...verview.aspx#2 (click on specifications).
4. As far as madVR is concerned: Minimal required specs as mentioned by madshi:
- graphics card with full D3D9 / PS3.0 hardware support
- at least 128MB of dedicated graphics card memory
- Windows XP or newer

Finally IMO MadVR should work fine with 6770 (dude I have it working on an HD3430 lol) and if that is ONLY what you will use it for i.e madVR IMHO it really isn't worth the shelling out an extra 100$ if you're on a tight budget UNLESS there is a feature in 6870 (like dual HD bitstreaming) you absolutely must have or it pretains to your setup. I stand corrected if anyone would like to add or amend what I said.

Wait a few more days and go for the next gen series, they will be announced/released 22 dec, and will be available in a few weeks.

Buying a 6xxx now, is virtually buying an end-of-market product.

In my opinion 6770 is strong enough. I have HD5750 which is weaker and I manage to run MADVR with Lav Codec + Raw ffdshow with frame doubling script in avisynth and I watch 1080p/Bluray movies on my 42inch full HD TV .I play movies in 1080p24 resolution And never had any dropped frames even with Lancroz 8 scalling which should be the heaviest resizer. Oh and I also use YCMS . So if you don't play very heavy games even 6770 is enough. Maybe it worth for you to wait a little for the HD 7000 series or Geforce 600 Series.

My system is:
Quadcore q6600 (weakest quadcore cpu)
6GB ram that runs on 667 Mhz (not much)
ATI HD 5750

I have tested also setup with HD6570, i5 SandyBridge and it works fine also with Lanzcos scalers, CPU utilisation was 20percent, GPU load 35percent.
Giving out that HTPC as a gift under the christmas tree. Tuned XBMC with MPC-HC, LAVfilters and MadVR. Remote included. And lot of work from our programming guys included as well..Thanks!

Yeah, i definitely need a gpu for all kind of material (full blurays, and 720@60 materials), so thats the reasoning behind a strong gpu. my hd3850 cant handle these now. (with core2duo e6750)

yeah, but next gen will be pricy at first, and i need a card now, not at the end of Q1 of '12

thanks for te info. spared money can go to a hdmi switcher

If you're not an insane gamer (I hope you didn't get an arrow to the knee as well). Get the 6 series for your content. Otherwise if games are part of the equation. wait for the next gen or get the high end hd 6990

Actually, I used to be an insane gamer. But then I took an arrow to the knee.

I think there should be a configuration utility included with madVR to tweak all the settings GPU related. Honestly I'm fed up wit tweaking madVR so it won't drop frames. I set it to auto and it sets the GPU queue to 4, sometimes 5, sometimes 12 and then it works fine for an hour and after that it says the memory is 100MB over how much the card has. Then it brings it down to 4 and it starts dropping frames every 5 seconds. On top of that the refresh rate frame drop/repeat calculation is never steady and goes from seconds to minutes to hours and back to seconds. This is on two different computers with two completely different configurations in terms of CPU, RAM, GPU, and GPU RAM.

When you say it drops frame, you mean you really see dropped frames, or that's what OSD tells you ?
Because I've never seen a dropped frame with madVR, but I don't look at OSD statistics so...
