directshow Bluray disc navigator filter base on libbluray - Page 10

You can use it, but you won't get any menu buttons etc because it only supports 1 pin. You could write a custom mixer for it, but my gut feeling is it would be too slow, even on fast hardware.

You could just use software mixing, blend the menu in software onto the image. That shouldn't take all that much performance.
As an alternative, madVR already supports custom OSD overlays, would just have to write an adapter to send the menu data to its OSD interface instead of on separate pins.

It's not just mixing, the streams can be different sizes. So you'd have to resize in software too.

Thanks to the devs for all the work on this, but can someone educate me on if this is to the point where it can be added as a filter in MPC-HC then used to open Blu-Ray discs and have fully functional menus?

Or is the only option still to use something like PowerDVD or WinDVD?

Yeah it plays most discs. It only works with unencrypted content at the moment, so you'll either need to compile libaacs and get that to work. Or use something like anydvd-hd.

It needs to be paired with a decoder that'll handle mpeg2/4/ and VC1. So the internal mpc-hc decoder should do the trick.

For renderer support it'll work out the box with EVR, but to get the custom presenter to work will require a few small changes. Ie to make it thread safe for direct 3d. And maybe check a few states.

The interface closely resembles that of the DVD navigator. It might change somewhat in the future. But for basic functionality all you need to do is pass key presses to it. The rest could be ignored.

Hey guys. Thank you all for working on this.

I'm having a problem. I downloaded the latest build and followed the readme.txt instructions. The menus and movies in the demo_plyer play but are very choppy. I don't have this kind of problem when I read a blu-ray with any commercial player or even mpc-hc.

dukey · 21st June 2012, 16:27

can u upload a sample of the video ? The menu files should suffice

I've tried with two blu-rays so far. One shows the menu when inserted, the other starts the movie directly. And both have choppy playback. You sure the menu would be enough?

What decoder are you using ? What BD ? What OS, video, drivers.....
Also try this http://www63.zippyshare.com/v/27242529/file.html

Are they choppy using the same decoder in MPC too ?

I'm following the readme's intructions, so the decoder, both audio and video is ffdshow (tryouts rev 4422).

My OS is Win 7 x64, running a Geforce GTX 570 with drivers 301.42
The latest directX runtime is installed.

So far I've tried the BDs of Kingdom of Heaven DC and The Last Samurai.

Like I said above no. Playback in MPC-HC is smooth, no matter what decoder I use. In fact I would be using it if it could play blu-ray menus.

I downloaded the file you linked me and replaced the original with it but it had no effect.

dukey · 22nd June 2012, 12:46

Upload a sample so we can test it. Menu files + small cutting off the main title should do.

Wile-E-Coyote · 22nd June 2012, 14:36

Sorry I have no idea how to rip the menus off a blu-ray. I'm gonna need time to find out how to do it.

On a side-note, is the navigation button in the player supposed to have any effect? When I click it nothing happens.

dukey · 22nd June 2012, 16:16

There is functionality inside the filter to navigate and skip chapters. But it hasn't been added to the example program yet.

To navigate use F8 "for main menu" beside the arrows

and for the menus just archive all the BD folders BUT inside STREAM folder leave just the m2ts files needed for the menu

EDIT AFAIK both BDs are VC-1 no ? Try changing the decoder for VC-1 in ffd or try to use LAV But VC-1 it's still not quite finish

This looks very promising ! I tested the 120 Build.

Would it be possible to use dslibbluray in the near future with WMP12 ?

I guess there is still the need of an DS Source Filter, and that one is not available today. Who would be able to write this filter ?
And how much work would this be for someone that now this stuff ?

Video corruption when using LAV Video Decoder with Sucker Punch (US) but works fine on other H.264 discs.

dukey · 13th August 2012, 23:01

I don't get that corruption
you using dxva ?

whurlston · 13th August 2012, 23:20

No (ATI card).

But thanks to your confirmation that it worked for you I played around with the settings some more and was able to get it to display properly if I set YUY2 as the only enabled output format in the LAV decoder settings.

Edit: NV12 was the offending format. With that disabled, it plays perfectly.

Absolutely awesome job on this guys!

dukey · 14th August 2012, 10:25

It could be a problem with the custom mixer. Could you find out exactly what output settings you use that cause the problem ?

nevcairiel · 14th August 2012, 11:58

Looks like a problem with the pitch negotiation, which i suppose would be the mixers job.

This is why i don't think this approach is the right one, implementing a custom mixer just to blend the menu graphics onto the video is way too complicated and limiting design.
I should really find the time to go about this with a more flexible approach and a clean design. Considering this project is rather dead itself, guess i don't have to work too fast.
