Nothing changes, just WTW is clipped but this only improves 3dlut quality

If you use 1080p BDs with Image Doubling only at 1080p, the benefit is lost when it downscales again.....

If you set the video card to 4k + image doubling, then the downscale this is much better than the above....

Am I saying this right or not?

I have a large screen 145" dia scope and doing just 1080p with image doubling looks great to me. When I change the video card to 4K it doesn't seem to look any better than when the card is at 1080 with image doubling...

Your thoughts on this please as Im still trying to get a grip on all this.
Try reading the link in my signature. It has all of those answers.

Supersampling (image doubling) is another approach to enhancing a 1080p source. Although, this is not recommended and requires a powerful GPU. Supersampling involves doubling a source to twice its original size, sharpening it, and returning it to its original resolution. The chain would look like this: Image doubling -> Upscaling refinement -> Image downscaling. The hope is applying sharpening to a doubled image will lead to a subtler sharpening effect with fewer artifacts.

High-quality, sharp downscaling with SSIM or Bicubic150 is important to retain as much detail as possible from the larger image.

1080p -> 2160p Supersampling (for high-end GPUs):
  • Chroma: super-xbr100 + AR
  • Image: Jinc3 + AR
  • Double Luma: 2x supersampling - super-xbr100
  • Double Chroma: 2x supersampling - super-xbr100
  • Downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR
  • Upscaling refinement: SuperRes (3)
  • Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
  • Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
  • Image enhancements: Off
  • Dithering: Ordered
If you prefer to have more control over the application of image sharpening, avoid supersampling and use the first profile. Applying Image enhancements to the native source allows more influence over the final sharpening effect.

Personally, I prefer image enhancements to supersampling with upscaling refinement.

A long time ago wanted to ask to you (since im a normal reader of your madvr settings page) what are your personal preferences for sd, 720p and 1080p movies content played on a 1080p 100" projector, do you recommend to apply super sampling to all content (sd, 720p,1080p). Id love to see your choices for each kind of content cause im overwhelmed with all the choices and combinatios that im freeze to decide which of them gives the better quality for movie playback, btw i have a dedicated HTPC with Windows7 and Nvidia Gtx 970

My preferences are found in the settings page of the link in my signature. I am using a 1080p screen.

hi Guys,
What setting are you using for 60fps 4k HDR video ?
This is the only thing my GTX1070 cant play.

I have the lastest version Madvr, and lavfilter
Lavfilter set to copyback and 4k hevc checked.

I get a seekbar with windowed overlay, using Zoom Player.

Odd. I'm using MPC-HC. In all other modes I get a seekbar, but nothing with windowed overlay.

Hi there. I am playing fullHD content on a 720p projector. Windows is set to 1280x720. I'd like to shift to the bottom of the screen cinemascope movies. I tried the black bar auto detection but it does not work, it does not do anything. I have tried several Blu Rays. I've also tried setting Windows to 1080p (the projector then rescales) but still the control does not do anything.
I tried updating to 0.90.24 but no luck. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Tony

Ps: also in the first picture shows you are using dxva2 and the second not... this can be the issue...
also dxva2 native with nvidia its not good with madvr causes some blur on chroma layer... if I was you i give a try to software decoding... even my old i5 2500 can decode hevc 1080p sources 8bit and 10bit... BTW the option delay playback until... don t work with dxva2 native... this also can be the problem

Thanks a lot!

How do I enable software decoding? I'm running a strong enough CPU, but I think I've messed something up along the way. I tried doing DXVA copy-back and sometimes the present times will jump to 10 ms... It wouldn't be a bad thing if it wouldn't cause dropped frames, especially on 60fps materials.

I guess most people don't use the same settings and for a good reason . At the same time, my most watched material is drawn and many of it is low resolution or the lineart is a bit thick. Having really strong edge sharpening and thinning helps making the entire image look sharper / like it has a considerably better definition.

Totally doing that, my friend!

And yes, I love it!

Sorry if I'm a nuissance, I'm trying to see what is max possible for a GPU at this date and I'm trying to use it at max.

I'm complaining when things like present times have high values and I do wonder if it's normal for render time to be so high or for frames to be skipped sometimes.

It's a fun hobby!

I still actually need advice on many things, I love to experiment / understand / debug. Regardless of if the answer is that I have to lower settings or not, I am curious to know more.

Also, I absolutely love example images that show the differences an algorithm does, really helpful on understand well - what it does.

on LAV video decode just set hardware decoder to none

3D subtitles, help needed

3D picture looks fantastic with madvr, but subtitle depth (plane) goes occasionally wrong resulting my eyes going awry. I'm watching original blu-ray ISO's and using madVR v0.90.20, LAVfilters 0.68.1. MPC-HC + Nvidias 373.06 drivers.

Been testing same movies with Pioneer blu-ray player and the subtitle depth is correct with that.

I'd be really grateful for any help.

About anti-bloating filter

If use sxbr ab 25 it's redundant use ab again with sharpen edges? Does ab get stronger if double activated?

If use for example adaptative sharpen and sharpen edges... AB is applied two times? So using two sharpening alhos should I decrease ab strength?

It's a final step applied after image enhancements and hence only applied once.

So AB from sxbr AB 25 apply before upscalling refinements?

So it sounds like you don't use this method Warner?
You set your video card to 2160 and only use Image Enhancements for sharpening, is that correct?

If I have this right, why do you prefer the above method not using Image Doubling?
