AYUV is bad because EVR accepts AYUV, but it fails at properly processing it (its extremely slow, on some GPUs no image at all), so thats why YV24 is preferred for me. Not to mention that a decoder typically outputs planar video, and conversion to AYUV requires manual labor.

I'd still recommend to try to make FSE mode work.

Hmmmm... Wait a moment, YV24 does not have an SSE2 routine yet in madVR (except if the user activates DXVA2 scaling), that's my mistake. But YV24 is much more likely to get an SSE2 routine than AYUV in the future. Planar is much preferred here, because some current and future algorithms (e.g. fade in/out detection) work on the luma channel, only, and that's so much easier with planar formats.

That would be a bug in Windows/Direct3D9. I've already implemented some hacks to fix this problem with Intel GPUs, but it's possible that this fix doesn't work with AMD/NVidia GPUs, I'm not sure. Feel free to add a bug report to the madVR bug tracker about this problem, if there isn't one already. Maybe if I find some time I'll see if I can workaround the problem with AMD/NVidia GPUs, too. It's not a madVR bug, though, but a bug in Windows or Direct3D9 or in the GPU drivers. madVR clearly requests 24.000Hz, according to the log.
Thanks for answering my question. I hope, You'll find solution for this annoying thing.

I have no idea what's changed, but instead of using the shortcut key for toggling deband, I went into madvr processing options and set both to medium. I had not gone into those options before. If there's a difference somewhere, I don't know about it. But now the problem is gone, no matter what algorithm I use.

Thanks madshi.

Thanks a lot. It happens on both my PC's (HD5670-GT240). Increasing backbuffers seems to do the trick, I'll test some more.

So what happens if you go back and use different settings both those 2 deband options in the settings dialog again? Does the problem come back? If so, please create a debug log with frame drops in it, caused by those deband configuration, and upload it for me to look it somewhere (zipped, please).

I guess I should check out how many buffers are needed and force them. Can you please double check how many backbuffers you need exactly for the problem to go away?

Yes you are right, I set it to "low" then "medium" and now the problem is back.

Ok so I couldn't find a debug .ax in the madVRanotherTestBuild2.rar package. So I tried the one from 0.86.11 but that didn't seem to work properly as I got no dropped frames according to the debug OSD, even if the processing options are still there and set to "low" and "medium". Switching back to the madVRanotherTestBuild2 .ax makes the dropped frames appear again in the debug OSD.

Is there another way of getting this debug log now that I don't know of?

Thanks.

Ah sorry, I forgot that I didn't upload a debug madVR.ax version. Will do that for the next test build (if there is one). Would be great to get a debug log then.

I have problems with YV16 in madVR. But it is not clear reason in decoder or renderer.

I had some problems too with windowed mode and smooth motion, especially with complex videos (10bit 444 high bitrate...).
It was a good idea then to mess with the flush settings.
However, I can't recall if this was mostly regarding dropped frames (haven't watched videos in windowed mode for a long time).

Hi madshi,

No worries. I'll be sure to provide it to you if you decided to release a new test build.

Typically, the issue now refuses to show up again. I remember it disappearing immediately, by increasing backbuffers from 3 to 4 (windowed settings).

Settings the level for the best quality in Bluray

Hi , i know that with an HTPC i've got to output in RGB (4:4:4) 0-255 for the best quality , and in the catalyst control panel i've setted it (RGB full). About the level I've got coreavc that can set the input level and the output level separately 0-255 or 16-235 . Now , i know that the Blu ray level is 16-235 , so i have setted the coreavc input level in 16-235 . About the output level i want coreavc untouch the signal level and i've setted it to 16-235 too .
In the final In madvr i've setted 0-255 . Is this all ok for the best quality? Or have i to set 0-255 madvr and coreavc too ?

Thank you, Fabio

Thank you, Fabio
first of all what is your tv a lot of tvs can't handle 0-255
just test it.
http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php

normally just let everything at default i don't use coreavc because i don't see a reason lav filter is totally fine for me.
there are settings like 0-255 16-235 too but they do nothing with a bd source except you change the output color spaces types too... and this should be the same with coreavc.

just leave your hands from those options and everything will run perfectly madvr gets untouched 16-235 nv12 and takes care of the rest

Are there settings for changing the black/white levels in the settings dialog along with the keyboard shortcuts? Also, does changing them adjust the top and bottom of the gamma curve?

It's a joke. This file is needed only for some specific staff on 64-bit machines and no more.
