Yes I am. When I go to windowed mode, it says the display is even less (which I assume is correct by seeing the window size). I do not know if there is a way in any other renderer to see if the image is being scaled differently.
I played the same file on my laptop, and while the laptop is lower res, it said was displaying correctly.
I just have that sinking feeling that I have not been watching movies the way they should be, half the res of normal.

Could you please post a screenshot? (do not resize the image) Put it on imageshack or other.

It shows with the scaler 1920x1080 -> 899x375.

What media player is that in?

If you're not using Media Player Classic Homecinema, you should be!

No idea what's happening. Try a newer MPC-HC and while you're at it, try default settings.

By the way, if you've got a decent video card, I would recommend you use Overlay.

edit: are you using HDMI and resizing the thing to fit your TV?

If you recall, Haali himself mentioned that he disliked having the video resolution and the screen resolution being the same or nearly the same. Due to this if any video being attempted to be played had a resolution within a certain amount of the screens resolution. The video would temporarily be shown at half the resolution in order to not have such an overwhelming effect the minute the video was opened. If after that the user wants to view the full resolution or something larger than half the resolution he/she can resize it to their liking or make it full screen to display the full resolution and in the case of 1080p video on a 1080p screen, without any scaler being applied.

Yes, but '899x375' is not half of any standard resolution.

Also, the OSD looks blurry which it generally looks very sharp.

did you try to reset MPC? what did you set in /View/Video Frame/? "touch window from inside"? it's most likely your player not instructing HR properly.

Oh sorry about that. Didn't see this picture. Yeah this is definitely not how its supposed to be working. As leeperry pointed out I think its something to do with the video frame settings in MPC.

I'm using Haali Renderer with MPC HC and ReClock which ReClock's Vsync disabled. I don't see any tearing, but when I pause and resume, sometimes I see a tearing line that doesn't go away until I pause and resume again. It's either near the bottom or in the bottom half of the screen.

I'm using a Radeon 5450 connected to my LCD TV via HDMI. I have Windows 7 set to 23Hz and my TV supports 24Hz native mode. If relevant at all, I have ATI CCC vsync set to off unless the application asks for it.

edit: I've just discovered that Aero/Desktop composition can affect tearing/vsync. I've recently disabled Aero because it was causing me problems with DXVA, but I'm no longer using DXVA so I've re-enabled Aero. Now I don't see tearing in EVR or Haali. How does Aero affect tearing/vsync?

Not a chance, I think.
Too bad every freeware hardware renderer project remain half finished.

Just wondering, what do you gain by using Haali splitter with MPC HC? And how do you configure it to work with MPC HC?

For one, you get support for linked segments in MKV. Not sure about anything else.

'Configure it' by installing it.

And make sure the MPC mkv splitter is disabled.

Haali's splitter has more advantages though, like better support for multiple audio streams (sometimes not selectable with MPC's splitter) and language/subtitle priorities.

Izzat right? I can find only that the last official release was 197.45, and the last 197 beta was .57.

is Haali Renderer open-source by any chance? If so I think this project needs to be restarted and the renderer definitely needs some bug fixes and improvements.
