;-) Hey.... by this time tomorrow night 1.2 will be out then I can move on to other things ;-)

[Shinigami-Sama]

#define much_much_later 2019

if much_sooner == 0 then { echo "available in the year $much_much_later"; };
fi

looks like shell script and C
:\

and by 2019 we'll have a new codec standard
mpeg-93 for all we know

[Thunderbolt8]

any numbers yet how much faster the new version is ?
my star wars h264 hd files stutter, wonder is the new version could fix that :S

I need those synced AC3 files ;) I will probably get told off for that. I am not requesting just stating before I get jumped on! LOL.

[Thunderbolt8]

do you need any syncronization for that ? for me it seems like the sound is ok

[AmbKosh]

Hmmm. The corecodec.org page is down since one hour or even longer. Could this be the first sign of the relaunch? ;)

It's online for me half of the time and offline the other half of the time for weeks/months. I've no idea why they don't seem to be able to offer a stable web presence. Well, whatever...

Good info. How come none of the review sites noticed this?
Essentially this means that Nvidia Purevideo AVC is still broken, over two years after its announcment. Or is there a combination of GPU and decoder that actually deblocks and performs considerably better than an average CPU?


No deblocking too with my 7900GT and powerdvd decoder. I have another bug : I can't get full speed on 50p/60p videos. With dxva on, they play from 45 to 55 fps, without dxva, no problem, I get the full framerate.

I hope someone will release a good GPU accelerated decoder. Maybe DXVA 2.0 on vista will help.

Again, i cant confirm that for my 7600GT. Currently i am using Cyberlinks decoder only, because most of the h264 new*gro*p movies are too heavy for my CPU+CoreAVC, and I never saw those artifacts.
Can you send me a source sample from one of your movies that gives you artifacts ?

Btw, it wasn't easy to snap the same picture, is there a tool/trick to shoot excatly the same frame ?

However, there are artifacts on both decoders, but cyberlink dxva-on seems to produce a little more artifacts.

You tried, Media Player Classic "go to frame" function?

[Thunderbolt8]

allright, finally I can get on the coreavs homepage but it still says latest version is 1.1 so are they late once again or is the v1.2 only available in some priv section ?

With DxVA on picture looks like "dirty", but I don't see any artifacts not on CoreAVC, nor PDVD with DxVA off. Maybe because of 17" display ^)
Also, there is VMR9 bug on NV, look on same picture with overlay mixer

After the "go to frame" positioned frame doesn't decoded, so you need to play and pause picture again :)

You can compress bmp images to png (lossless). That would safe a bandwidth and time to open it.

Better compress with winrar :)

I'm sorry, screens are png now. Didn't realized that each screen shot was 8 mega bytes huge :)

[BetaBoy]

I'm too tired to laugh ;-).... Last thing we are now doing for Jarod is checking for site spelling errors (I am still sure he'll find a few i'll miss). Next up in about 2 hours is to change over to our new Core Account services and bring live the new server/site.

glad everything is to schedual
[/razzing]

as for spelling errors
hope you didn't do the final compile before you spell checked the GUI for the installer and menues ;P

[Ginsonic]

Site is online :D !

[BetaBoy]

Almost... DNS will take a while to propagate and I still have to edit the download/purchase buttons and make some slight mods.... Then we will begin to send update notifications to our current customers.

[Kurtnoise]

Hi,

What are limitations for the trial version ?

[Ginsonic]

Almost...
Just noticed it !

[JohnnyFu]

long waited for that, hope the update mail comes soon.

[blubberbirne]

Then we will begin to send update notifications to our current customers.

:goodpost: Hope you're right ;)

[BetaBoy]

Purchase buttons are edited..... upgrade emails are going out now.

[BetaBoy]

oh... FYI... current installer is not compatible with Vista... We will release a Vista capable installer later today.

[Ginsonic]

Purchase buttons are edited..... upgrade emails are going out now.

Desperately waiting for mine... :o

[celtic_druid]

What's with the tags about the size of your dick? So anyone can just add stuff? Doesn't seem like a good idea.

[Randi]

err another question: How do I dl the new version, been searching for 10min now... oh and according to 9/10th of the tags betaboy like boys :-)

*edit* and when I say dl, I mean in Coreaccount System (yes I bought the software and normally I am able to find everything)

*update* found it, seriously guys, ever heard of usability? ;-)

[JohnnyFu]

Just received the update. But i'm in trouble to register the codec...

When i try to re- or un-register the codec i get the following message:

Error loading C:\Programme\CoreCodec\CoreAVC Professional\CoreAVCDecoder.ax

a dynamic link library (DLL) initializiation routine failed

Maybe i should have uninstalled the old version before ? :(

[Jay Bee]

Before I register: Do I need to use my real name? Does it have to mach the name I bought my license with. Will it understand ä,ü,ö etc.? Will my name be visible to others, for example in the forums?

And yes, I am paranoid. :)

[Kurtnoise]

Houston, we've got a problem :

http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/7023/coreavc12in1.th.png (http://img139.imageshack.us/my.php?image=coreavc12in1.png)

Registration of CoreAVCDecoder.ax can't be made...even manually. What's wrong ?

/edit: JohnnyFu beats me...

[BetaBoy]

For the few ppl that download... redownload it again... it's been fixed.

You name will be tied to the email so its already in the services... but its not even visable to me unless I jump through hoops.

[BetaBoy]

celtic_druid... thx... 3rd party tag adding has been removed.

@BetaBoy

Big Problem. I Register me to the ne Service with the link you send via eMail. After this i locked in.

It doesn't need your real name, or the name you used when buying it. You seem to be making an account for future use, rather than identifying yourself as a previous purchaser (I guess the customised URL handles that). I didn't use "special" characters.

Oh, and it works fine so far. :)

Click the downlod link in the email again... if it does not work.. forward me the email.... betaboy@corecodec.com

[blubberbirne]

Ok, now it works :)

[blubberbirne]

Ok, i testet the new CoreAVC with DVBViewer and DVB-S2 Programms, and it still lags :( CPU Usage is only ~30-40%
