so what would be the equivalent of enabling lock back buffer in the new version? I think that may help snyders6dogrecipe.

otherwise, snyders6dogrecipe, maybe you can just try all different combinations of the GPU control options.

Then describe your system, and what you're watching on? Perhaps you are seeing flickering, like on CRT monitors at 60Hz under fluorescent lights?

Is there a plan to add support for BlueRay S_HDMV/PGS subtitles?

RE Identical Images - Hurting eyes sounds like flashing or frequency, not one image looking better. That is, the display logic, not decoding.

G98 based 8400 GS supports VC-1 and MPEG-2 bitstream ( and iDCT ) modes as well as H.264 FGT and non-FGT modes.

G86 only supports iDCT and earlier modes for VC-1 and WMV as well as bitstream for H.264.

You can tell them apart from the clock speeds.
I'm looking at either a 9600gt or 9800gt. does either of those support bitstream for all vc1/avc/wmv? this info is surprisingly hard to find.

Not really. A Wikipedia search for PureVideo does the job.

I'm pretty sure that VP2 GPUs can only do H.264 in MPC-HC, while VP3+ can do all VC-1 and H.264. MPEG-2 doesn't get hardware acceleration with MPC-HC's internal filters, so I can't comment on how other decoders such as the CyberLink ones handle MPEG-2 on VP1-4.

@snyders6dogrecipe them images are md5 identical, your eye-strain maybe due to refresh-rates, monitor or lcd ?

I have an Alienware m9750 laptop, with dual 2.0 gz processor and nvidia 8700m gt. I also use a 1080p projector in the dark, and the effect is the same while using v1.3.1249. Any combination of the right-click->renderer settings doesn't fix the problem without introducing tearing. Any chance the "lock backbuffer" option could be made available again in the future?

i have asked you 2 times to confirm if the description in bug 110 matches your issue.

Could you please tell me what it means to "wait for flushes"?

Since v42 the DLL has been split into two files, so you need an additional file as well, D3DCompiler_42.dll if I remember correctly.
I just downloaded version 1.3.1249 for Windows7 final and using the "System Default" renderer I get horribly blocky scaled video (on fullscreen). I tried setting it to WMR9 renderless, but MPC complains about d3dx9.dll missing, no matter if I use the x86 or x64 version. I did not have this problem in Windows7 RC1 which I used so far.

What is the proper way to solve this? I downloaded the Directx SDK and copied d3dx9_41.dll to the MPC directory, that enabled WMR9 renderless but seemingly half the picture is cut off (see attachment)?? EVR Custom Pres is okay, but searching is slow.

Currently I set output to EVR (Vista/.NET3), doesn't need d3d9x.dll, don't know if this has any issues? However, the default setting is wrong.

Flush GPU before VSync

Flush GPU after Present
forces the driver to actualize the Present as soon as possible

Wait for flushes
This will cause the renderer to spin, waiting for the GPU flushes

Can you try using 2d surfaces instead of 3d ones.
Also can you confirm that you have the latest DX installed?(did you update everything as instructed?)

Is there a page that guides people on how to compile MPC-HC? I downloaded the GNU sourcecode tarball, and I'm trying to compile mpc-hc_vs2005.sln in the \mpc-hc\tags\release_v1_2_908_0 folder (after I overwrote the dxva-related files with the ones from the release_v1_3_1249_0 folder), but I get 239 errors when I try to build it :P

The correct solution would be finding and fixing the problem you encounter, as you are probably not the only one suffering from this issue.

Compiling instructions can be found here:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mpc...ompile_the_MPC

Can you tell us which combination of settings causes the problem to disappear? (but introduces tearing)

Dit you try to reset the renderer settings to defaults
and then reset to optimal settings?

The proper way to fix this is once and for all is to install the DirectX runtime - yes, even under Windows 7, since it doesn't come with any recent version of DirectX 9 either.

Thank you. I did install the latest DX, and with 2D on it is still the same.
