I have the same problem. Since rev3371 I can't see PGS bluray subtitles. Instead it shows NullTextRenderer at the top of filter list.

@devs: I have updated libsamplerate to v.0.1.7 locally. The increase in the installer's size is ~800KB. Test binaries (x86 and x64) and the patch can be found here. The changelog for libsamplerate since 0.1.2 mentions:

# Version 0.1.3 (Mar 23 2008) Huge quality improvements to two best SINC based converters.
# Version 0.1.4 (Jul 02 2008) Fix segfault when using extremely low conversion ratios.
# Version 0.1.5 (Jan 11 2009) Optimisation resulting in dramatic throughput improvements ( See here.).
# Version 0.1.6 (Jan 27 2009) Minor bug fix in test suite (account for rounding error on x86_64).
# Version 0.1.7 (Feb 14 2009) Fix a segfault bug. Fix compilation under MSVC.

What do you think? I mean, it's an important increase in size, but the changes sound very interesting.

Maybe you can compensate with a higher compression ratio in the installer?
LZMA2 was recently added to Inno.

[XhmikosR]

I've already tried it, no improvement unfortunately.

[clsid]

LZMA2 doesn't help much.

As usual I vote against the huge libsamplerate. Few people actually use it and most of them would probably not even hear a difference in a double-blind test.

[fastplayer]

I guess UPXing ff_samplerate.dll wouldn't make any difference too...

[tetsuo55]

the size increased because the current version was fundamentally flawed and the author had to refactor a large portion of code iirc

could you compile an x64 version for testing please?
Thanks in advance . . . (providing just the single dll would suffice)

[XhmikosR]

@Shark007: I updated my previous post (both the binaries and patch). Keep in mind I haven't tested the x64 version at all since I don't have 64bit Windows.

I think I have a bug with the Resize & Aspect option

video size that don't work correctly : 400x300 / 480x352 / 512x384 / 576x432 / 640x480 / 640x496 / 704x512 / 1008x762
No problem with : 640x360 / 704x388 / 704x396 / 704x400 / 720x400 / 1008x560


Here is a test done with version 3387 and two video clip (640x480 / 704x396).
The parameter for Border are left with default option & setting > Lock / Bicubic
if I put this resize parameter


The clip 1 is not resized right, has you can see the image has a black border.

but clip 2 is resized correctly

With this resize parameter

It resize correctly the two clip

I'm doing something wrong or forgetting a option ?

Well, although I haven't seen anything in the changelog, I decided I'll give rev. 3390 a try, perhaps the issue mentioned here - http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...78#post1394378, is gone.
The good news is the issue is not presented anymore, the bad news is it's because subtitles are not displayed at all :-)
Back to rev. 3367.

[XhmikosR]

@devs: I have updated all the mingw libs (libgcc.a, libmingwex.a, libws2_32.a) and the boost lib (r61712). I've tested MSVC x86/x64 Release builds x86 ICL11 Release build and I didn't face any problems. Although I had to add BOOST_NO_RTTI in the Preprocessor definitions for ff_vfw in order to get the ICL11 x86 build to compile. From Debug builds, I've only tested MSVC Debug x86.

Are the mingw libs in the SVN specially compiled? Because I see that they have a big difference in size compared to my mingw ones.

PS. I still wait for libsamplerate. Only clsid has replied so far and he is against the update.

Can you send me a script or a video with no displayed subtitles?

About libsamplerate I say go with the update, better quality is always better. There are a lot of things that people use less than resampling that could be removed from ffdshow yet they're there

In both clips, there are black bars on the top and bottom of the video area which is 16:9. You can see and assume that clip 2 is taking up the entirety of the available video area which is resized 1280x720 pixels.

In clip one, there is also black bars in the video on the left and right within the 16:9 area in the centre of the screen touching the inside of the screen, so now there are black bars left and right from ffdshow and top and bottom because there is nothing there. If you put the video into a window (not full screen), you will see that there are only black bars on the left and right.

Now the video area is 4:3 and is taking up the whole screen. There is no area that is not video area even if it is black.

In the second clip, the black bars on the top and bottom are part of the video and put there by ffdshow to keep the original aspect of the video. If the second video was resized to 1440x1080 without aspect ratio correction/black bars, the aspect would be 4:3 and not the original 16:9.

TL;DR the aspect ratio of the clips is being kept.

Albain, r3374 causes subtitles to disappear on a seek. This happens at least with subtitles readed from file. The only solution is to reload them. The culprit is:

if (subs) subs.onSeek();

Removing this line fixes the issue. Maybe that's why adam777 can't see any subs now.

Albain,

I just tested rev 3383 and 3387, just playing the original Blu-ray disc Sword Of The Stranger with zoom player but the subtitles are not displayed. Build 3370 is the last working version for me, I don't know if anything changed with the way the subs are displayed after 3370 or if the problem is with zoom player.

You can download a trial copy of Zoom Player Home MAX here http://www.inmatrix.com/files/zoomplayer_download.shtml.
Here is the update http://www.mediafire.com/?zldjdyomz2w which fixes a problem where ffdshow's subtitles were being disabled, copy and replace original .exe in zoom player install folder.

Untick the option Disable FFDShow subtitle rendering when no subtitle files/streams are found (see image). I'm using the Win7 Direct Show Filter Tweaker 3.1 to change video renderers to FFDShow.

System Setup:

Windows 7 Professional 64bit
GeForce GTX 280 - Forceware 197.25
AnyDVD HD - 6.6.3.4
Zoomplayer 7 Home Max - 7.10 Alpha 3
Gabest Mpeg Splitter - standalone filter svn 1824 32bit
Haali splitter - 27-03-2010
EVR renderer, YV12 Output


Let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks

Hi, cool,

I have to test, i have a strange issue, and i try to figure out, but on m2ts and last FFDshow, the sub out pin don't want to connect to input pin of FFDshow, i have enable subtitle.

If i use old version (3364) but not all old version the connect is made, i use a quick test by graphstudio to look this.

Also, i have see that you have work for SSA positionning.
I have a question about .srt file, it's normal that i don't succeed to have the same (font, position) that i obtain with directvobsub and MPC-HC ?

Another think, but i thik that all issue come from me lol.
If i have a movie with in the same directory an .srt with part of the name of the movie, the sub is load automatly with the bad .srt

Example : movie -> sample.mkv and sub in directory : sample2.srt
Agin in MPC-HC or Directvobsub, it take only subs with the match name and don't load sample2.srt.

Thank you
Cheers,
Seb.

same problem but with MPC-HC and ffdshow since 3371

[onomatopellan]

Those who can't see the Bluray subtitles, can you also see THIS on the top of your filter list?

[FreeFall]

Onomatopellan,

I don't see NullTextRenderer anywhere on my filter list.


Ikarad, Onomatopellan,

Thanks for the feedback it's good to know I'm not the only one having trouble with builds newer than 3370.
