MPC-HC exhibits the most curious behaviour, as HDR will enable if I move the mouse on to the screen, or let the control panel appear at the bottom; once I hide the panel/mouse, HDR disables again.

Potplayer gets stuck in a perpetual loop once entering fullscreen mode, making viewing the content unwatchable.

I've tried with and without the "enable automatic fullscreen exclusive mode" options (the above is the behaviour without it set). The behaviour differs slightly when enabled, with MPC-HC behaving as Potplayer does as described above.

I'm using the latest MadVR with Nvidia 430.86 drivers for my 1060 6GB card, and an LG B7 TV.

Thoughts? TIA.
If it works with 385.28, why don't you stick to it ?

Games. World War Z crashes on it, and Nvidia Experience stopped working several weeks ago.

Yes, it is paused.

Oh, I understand

Just in case you can't figure out how to make everything work with the same drivers (and we all agree that would be the ideal scenario), dual boot might be an option. Sometimes it's easier to keep two completely separated Windows setups for different uses. I tried for hours to make a single setup work with both my LG C8 TV and Sony projector. With a dual boot and two separate Windows installs, it took me under an hour to achieve that...

Just my two cents

No need to push "4k on CPU", because decoding is not done by gpu shader ...

Is there any way with madVR to crop the edges off a video without causing madVR to zoom the resulting crop to the screen edge? Does that make sense?

I am using a projector with an anamorpic lens and the image spills off the screen, I just want to crop off some of the video with black and the projector being used doesn't have this option, so I was hoping madVR could do it.

Im on previous driver. Still stutters. Will try latest now. Im certain there will not be any difference. Eventually stutters always return after a fresh install. Wonder what the major issue is, I dont think it is just madvr as I get stutters with EVR as well

If you configure your display as a projector, under devices, you can define a visible screen area to remove the spill over. It seems like you must already be using this if you are using an anamorphic lens, is there a reason you do not want to define the visible screen area?

Please could you report:

GPU & driver version
OS version and build
madVR version

Anyone else noticed this?
I tried 430.86 and 430.39
Windows 10 1809
Madvr build 78 I want to say

Thanks for your assistance!

I feel like I have tried the right option, but I don't know how to describe what's not seemingly working correctly. So instead I have taken a video.

Hopefully you can see what's going on.

So essentially, the video spills over the left and right sides of the screen. I want to simply crop in the sides so that black is spilling over the sides rather than image data, because it's a very bright laser projector and you can see the spill even over black velvet.

When I use the "define visible screen area by cropping masked borders" it does bring in the sides, but all it's doing is shrinking the entire video, and that is also affecting the top and bottom of the image as well. It seems to be maintaining the aspect ratio, when what I want is to crop in the sides only, therefore changing the aspect ratio.

The video shouldn't change size at all, all that should happen is the spill over on the sides should be black rather than be active video.

At least that's what I want to do. Not sure how to make that happen but I feel like there should be a way. Normally I would use a feature on the projector itself called masking, but this projector has no masking option.

Ah, yes. Unfortunately madVR does not have a manual crop option, it can only remove black bars or crop up to 7 lines from all sides.

Manual crop would be a good feature

You don't want the new builds, they're for testing HDR to SDR conversion, a final isn't that far off just grab 0.92.17.

Isn't it correct for a 2.40:1 movie to have black bars when shown on a 2.35:1 screen? Otherwise, you would lose image data.

Edit: I think the only possible solution I can think of is to set up a 2.35:1 profile in screen config with the top and bottom of the image cropped to get a 2.35:1 aspect ratio and then check zoom big black bars away to see if the 2.40:1 movie (I assume that is Lucy on UHD Blu-ray) is zoomed beyond the borders of the media player window with some cropping at the screen edges.

there's been an influx of 4k remasters with teal+orange color grading that looks awful. do you think it would ever be possible to add something like a de-teal/orange at all?

Could you list some examples of teal/orange movies?

Thanks huhn.
Anything I can do to change/fix this (decoder queue being high)? This is CPU queue size in madvr general settings, right?
Default is 12, I increased it to 16 (saw some recommendations).
