I can manually turn on deinterlacing or IVTC from the keyboard, but I can't tell if that results in a better picture. What's the preferred behavior in this case?
How does one even play that file? MPC-HC doesn't recognise it for me (using LAV Splitter).

you have to enable wtv in lav splitter and then set StreamBufferSource to "block" in external filters in mpc-hc options. But there's really nothing special about the file, it's just a windows tv recording.

If it wasn't for the fact that my PC/FileServer with the NVIDIA GPU had its motherboard die last month (at the moment waiting on Ivy Bridge, since I'm being forced into a full CPU/Mobo/RAM rebuild...), I would check things out for myself and post debug logs. At the moment, I'm just curious to find out what madshi finds the underlying cause to be.

Maybe I will temporary go back to the 296 driver to test it.
But I'm pretty sure that windowed mode and Aero shouldn't matter.

The new Vsync options of the new driver can be completely turned off, btw.

Hang on, aren't you all using the 300 drivers with modified .inf files with older cards? The current 300 drivers are only designed for 680's only. Maybe this is why madVR is giving issues?

If everything else is working fine, most likely not.
Nvidia has changed something and this requires either a fix by Nvidia or madshi, I'm very sure.

Did Nv get HDMI output working as intended on the 680? I mean like
- no .inf fiddling anymore to get fullrange luma in stead of always being in TV-range,
- output frequency stable, so no more tweaking to scanlines/overscan with rivatuner to exact (or very near) 23.976xxxxx output rate ?

Cause on the HDMI output 'side of things'; AMD's cards work out of the box for me, on both video and audio (incl. high-res/lossless audio + bitstreaming). I find that up till now Nv's card are to much hassle to get just right, maybe thats changed. Hence the question.

Never experienced the issues you mention on the 580, and the 680 seems the same so far. They did switch from mini to full size hdmi out though, and no cable in the box this time so gonna have to order another one.

I hope the fan doesn't raise when the card is in p0 state with just little load.
I wait for the Asus CUII design.

With 296 driver there's only tearing in windowed mode if Vsync is forced off.
In new FSE there's no tearing.

Thanks for testing that on Win7 aufkrawall. Since you specified new FSE, was there tearing with old FSE?

I looked back in this thread, and it seems my last post on the subject was when I observed this behavior with the old FSE mode and VSync Forced-Off. The new FSE mode was always unusably slow on that GPU, so while I know I've tested the new FSE VSync behavior, it doesn't appear I made a meaningful record of it anywhere.

When you find time, could you post a madVR Debug log? Without at least that, madshi won't be able to begin troubleshooting the issue.

Could you also run madNV12Test? Even though that test is very outdated, it'd still be interesting to see the performance results on Kepler.

What language are the subtitles supposed to be? It looks like the character encoding of the subtitle file is set to a non-native ASCII encoding which is different form your regional settings. Could you upload the original subtitle file somewhere? To avoid such issue in the future, you should author your subtitles in a Unicode space such as UTF-8.

It's usually quicker to upload such files to mediafire or some other file hoster. Attachments sometimes take awhile to get approved.

If it's indeed an english subtitle, it seems possible that the subtitle was saved as UTF-16 or similar without a signature, causing it to incorrectly be viewed as ASCII or UTF-8 without conversion (gibberish). I'll take a look later after the attachment is accessible. It's possible that VLC (libass) may auto-detect and correct these sorts of encoding issues.

Those were Bulgarian subtitles using Cyrillic (Windows-1251) ASCII encoding. Here they are converted to UTF-8:
