Media Player Classic Home Cinema (MPC-HC) - DXVA!

[tetsuox]

is it possible to change screenshot directory ?
You can already do this. When you save a screenshot, MPC will pop up a "save as..." standard windows dialog. MPC will also remember the last directory you saved in. Are you using vista?

Also is it possible to change file name pattern so that it starts with filenname like 'movie name (number)' ?
Thanks.
I'd also like this as well. But maybe just 'filenameyyyymmddhhmmss.jpg/png/bmp' without the filename extension.

Some thoughts on the new OSD for MPC-HC:

Requirements
- it shall be possible to link an action(commmand) to an OSD item (or a group of items)
- the content, appearance and behaviour of an OSD item should be configurable
- OSD should also support navigation through OSD items and the user should be able to make a choice (in actions like <load file>,<choose audio track>, etc. - very useful for remote control)
- OSD shall be scalable proportionally to the video size
- shall support animation (??), for example animated screensaver on pause
- it shall be possible to load a config (skin)
- it shall be possible to reset OSD to default (with total absence of any config file)

Design/Implementation
- shall use a new transparent window on top of the main window (makes it renderer-independent)
- shall load/display groups of OSD items (XML config file?)
- new config dialog (similar to the existing keys setting) where the user can choose an OSD item for a command
- on the same tab it should be possible to load an XML config file that contains descriptions of OSD items/groups and there default assignments to commands

What needs more thinking:
- synchronization of the OSD window with main window or video size/position
- all mpc-hc items that can be displayed shall have corresponding tags (%time_remaining%, %bitrate% ..... )
- methods of drawing in the OSD window
- methods of displaying fonts
- ideally shall be possible to make an OSD editor with an XML output (anyone knows of any similar open source projects?)

Please, critisize!

Some thoughts on the new OSD for MPC-HC:

...

I personally don't want MPC (or MPC-HC) to gain any unnecessary bloat. Renderer-independent will be good. I think most people just want the current OSD to look a bit cleaner, perhaps something like mplayer's but more compact? Keep it simple and text-based primarily with few options such as color for font and outline (with edge blur of course ^^).

I certainly don't want MPC-HC to turn into a winamp!

[mark0077]

Talking about OSD and user interface, what is the keyboard key that corresponds to the DVD "Select" command. I came accross a dvd menu that has no clickable play button, the select button on a normal dvd players controller usually starts the dvd. Whats MPC's equivalent.

PS: Does anyone know if any work is being done on the EVR-CP? Just figured out that alot of my reclock stuttering problems is only happening with evr-cp, maybe because it drops so many frames.

OK. Good point. Let's keep it text-based.

[Beliyaal]

I have managed to make the right click menus/options work in fullscreen mode. I have also made seekbar not dissapear in fullscreen mode. Is it really worth the effort to do anything else?

[Casimir666]

You can't just turn libavformat into a DirectShow splitter. You grossly underestimate how much work that would take. And no guarantee that it will be any better. Certainly not if you want to solve the issue of multiple video streams. You need a build-in video stream switcher for that (like Haali splitter has) and that is not something that libavformat has.

Fixing the bugs in the existing splitters would be much less work and give better results.

I aggree with Clsid, it's better to fix bugs that integrate libavformat. Except Matroska that have a lot of issues, other internal splitters works pretty well in my opinion.

Okay.
Then i feel we need to move our focus on fixing the splitters.
The (M2)TS and Matroska need the most love.

About:

This project is based on the original Media Player Classic (http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli/) and was create after Gabest, the original author, stop working on it. Several new features have been integrated in this media player, such as:

* An option to remove Tearing using Direct3D
* Additional video decoders H.264, VC-1 with DXVA support
* Support for EVR Renderer
* Better support for Windows Vista, including 64 bits releases
* Multi-language support(Czech, French, German, Hungarian, Russian, Spanish and Turkish)
* Bugs and vulnerability fixes

DXVA Support:

Modern video graphics card have the possibility to decode partially or completely a video using DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) and reduces CPU usage. MPC - HC has an embedded video decoder using this technology to decode H.264, VC-1 video. Unfortunately this decoder supports for the moment only bitstream mode, which means that only most recent graphic cards are supported.

* ATI Radeon™ HD, ATI HD3850/3870/4850/4870, AMD Hybrid CrossFireX™ 780G series for H.264 & VC-1
* nVidia GeForce 8500, 8600, 9600 or better

DXVA is quite susceptible, so if you want to use it you have to respect those rules:

* Windows XP & Vista
* For Windows XP users, select Overlay Mixer, WMR7(9) or VMR7(9) Renderless
* For Vista users, select EVR or EVR Custom
* For DXVA and subtitles support select VMR7(9) Renderless or EVR Custom.
* Video decoder should be connected directly to the renderer. This means that no intermediate filters such as DirectVobSub or ffdshow can be inserted between decoder and video renderer.
* DXVA compliant x264 encoded files.

x264 Known Hardware acceleration problems and solutions:

"DXVA compatibility" issues:

link (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=137974)

Known issues & bugs:

* Random crashes with internal avi, mkv, mp4 internal source filters and mpc video decoder.
* Subtitles synchronization lost with VMR9/EVR
link (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1948031&group_id=170561&atid=854651)
* There are problems with DVD navigation, some menu's are affected more than others.
* MPC-HC will randomly delete the external filter settings in the .ini file.
* VC-1 Interlaced Material Bug (sample provided)
link (http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1139064&postcount=1973)
* The colors are "washed-out" with Vista SP1 + EVR-Custom
* DVBDream issue with MPC HC (in XP 32bit)
link (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1139414#post1139414)
* MPC graph creation bug: MPC seems to always prefer Haali splitter, even if external Gabest splitter has higher merit. Neither filter is explicitly set as preferred source filter in the registry (because then it would be allows to ignore merit).

Just my opinion, but this could really use a ' fast forward ' and a ' rewind ' button for dvd playing, it'd just be better, kinda ummm... more efficient, for viewing your dvds.

[Downhill]

Hello! If anyone could help me with a problem i have...

I have a panasonic 42Px80 Plasma tv connected to an HTPC (quad 8200, Gigabyte 4650 1gb, 2gb memory) through an Hdmi and a D-sub cable. I use the Hdmi Port for movies and the vga for general Computer use. Through VGA everything (xvid, divx, HD content, matroska etc) plays great. But when i switch to HDMI i always get bad tearing. Nomatter what is the playing material, no matter what is the OS (xp/vista) there's always tearing. I never had such issues on my other panny (42px7) but with this set everything tears. I tried everything (i even pluged the tv to a plain cheap dvd player through hdmi to see if it was the tv's problem) and i found that it's software related. When i play with wmp11 or KM player, i have smooth image playback. I could use the anti-tear option in mpc-hc but then i wouldn't have the menus, which is annoying. Does anyone has any solution to this? I really like this program and i would like to stick to it.

[_xxl]

@devs
I would like to remove vs2005 support from mcp-hc.
So only vs2008 from now...

[tetsuo55]

I have managed to make the right click menus/options work in fullscreen mode. I have also made seekbar not dissapear in fullscreen mode. Is it really worth the effort to do anything else?

So that means when i use the full-screen remove tearing option that the menu's now work??

if so:
:thanks::thanks::thanks::thanks:

[Beliyaal]

Hopefully it won't make tearing appear in full screen mode as well :)

I'm in the process of creating a build script to automate builds. Is there a NSIS script somewhere for the installer? I can't seem to find it in SVN.

[73ChargerFan]

I personally don't want MPC (or MPC-HC) to gain any unnecessary bloat.
An improved interface is good, not bloat.
OK. Good point. Let's keep it text-based.
No, yuk. I like the pop-up video play controls for WMP11.

[bmnot]

Feature request: Tray icon for switching video/audio/subtitle streams (like Haali).

[Amour]

I disagree with bmnot: not another tray icon...
We already have one for haali and two for ffdshow, we don't need a fourth one with mpc.

[leeperry]

of course you can disable them all, as I did.

feature request : proper GUI, that doesn't look like win95 OSR1 :p

[yesgrey]

@Beliyaal,
In the Renderless mode, is it possible to have the video in YUV format? I would like to create a pixel shader code to convert from YUV->RGB. Is this possible, or the PS only works with RGB?

Thanks.

[leeperry]

Casimir said that he could only output RGB32(and another strange format) to the mixer..but Leak's PS chromafix script seems to work perfectly fine, on both nvidia/ati :)

[bmnot]

I disagree with bmnot: not another tray icon...
We already have one for haali and two for ffdshow, we don't need a fourth one with mpc. Uh no. I don't use Haali, I use MPC-HC's internal splitter. Switching streams with it is a pain. Requires multiple clicks, instead of one on a tray icon.

[ADude]

So, I used the "dub" field to add an external audio to a MKV file, with the interal audio splitter enabled, and it worked fine.

It loads two different instances of SPDIFER at the same time, in order to allow "hot swapping" of the two audio tracks (one DTS and one AC3).

This seems to indicate that perhaps Haali Splitter does the same thing, and so when it could not switch between DTS and Vorbis audio tracks included in an MKV file, that it actually was supposed to load both initially (makes more sense, rather than constantly loading and unloading every time the audio track is changed).

Generally, rarely used choices are more likely to have bugs, because frequently used choices are more likely to have many noisy complaints. :) So, it seems to me that rather than SPDIFER being the problem, it is more likely that the rarely used Vorbis decoder is the problem.

-958 casimir666: Fixed : seek on Flac source filter

Unless your build is actually another one this issue is still present in rev966.

[DeathWolf]

the build is 966 for sure. So unless I missed something magically, it's still broken.

[mariner]

is there any chance that a custom graph builder might be included in mpc-hc?

i really wish i could have more control over the graphs in mpc.. right now playing blu-rays and hd dvds off the discs in mpc is a royal pain in the ass. being able to build a graph and then play that would make it all immensely easier.

Great idea.

[Aleksoid1978]

For all - if you can check test build http://www.tosei.ru/isoft/mpc/mplayerc.exe
This is build work DXVA with http://rapidshare.com/files/179789048/HD-Sport-test.rar , but current svn build not work with DXVA on this file(.ts + h264).

And test other video - DXVA work or not. (Sorry for bad English :) )

[Snowknight26]

Why does the internal matroska splitter say this DTS-HD MA track is "DTS-HD XLL?"

[Casimir666]

Hopefully it won't make tearing appear in full screen mode as well :)

I'm in the process of creating a build script to automate builds. Is there a NSIS script somewhere for the installer? I can't seem to find it in SVN.

There is no installer for official builds, but Alexins have made one so maybe you can ask him.

[madshi]

Why does the internal matroska splitter say this DTS-HD MA track is "DTS-HD XLL?"
"XLL" is the name of the DTS-HD extension which carries the additional MA information.

[chros]

Feature request: Tray icon for switching video/audio/subtitle streams (like Haali).
There is tray icon in MPC-HC for a long time.
You can enable/disable it in Options -> Player -> Tray icon ... :)

[chros]

I have managed to make the right click menus/options work in fullscreen mode. I have also made seekbar not dissapear in fullscreen mode. Is it really worth the effort to do anything else?
Is it possible to switch to fullscreen on the fly (and not automatically at startup) with this mode?
This would be the only useful thing that we need (Zoomplayer can do this?) ... It's almost unuseable with 2 monitor setup: the playing video is always on the 2nd, but it's not always turned on. So we always have to switch this option on and off ...

Thanks

EDIT: Yes, Zoomplayer MAX 6 is capable to switch it on-the-fly via the Options -> Playback -> Video & Subs -> Use exclusive Fullscreen ... So, that would be a very-very good feature !
And: Zoomplayer can't display the right click menus/options and the seekbar in this mode .... :)

[VHT]

Latest versions of MPC-HC doesn't load directvobsubs even if I force subs and set MPC-HC own subs off.This is happening only in Vista, in XP everything is fine...

[tetsuo55]

Enable full-screen 3D remove tearing mode

[tetsuo55]

Is there a clash between MPC HC and Helux YUV codec? XviD4PSP 5.x has it in its installer but it seems it messed up MPC's VMR9 mixer mode and EVR (i'm on XP SP3) with an awful green tint.. when I show VMR9 without mixer mode the video playback is normal. What gives?
Edit - It seems it's an issue with Intel GMA X3100 since I had to disable DXVA in Cyberlink's PDVD8 decoder earlier to get rid of the tint. Does VMR9 mixer/EVR invoke some sort of DX hardware acceleration? I'm already using 3D surfaces and it works fine in 'plain' VMR9. I'm using Intel's latest drivers. Any help/explanation would be much appreciated!

So, I used the "dub" field to add an external audio to a MKV file, with the interal audio splitter enabled, and it worked fine.

It loads two different instances of SPDIFER at the same time, in order to allow "hot swapping" of the two audio tracks (one DTS and one AC3).

Enable full-screen 3D remove tearing mode

Errr...

I could use the anti-tear option in mpc-hc but then i wouldn't have the menus, which is annoying.

But then again Beliyaal posted the following shortly after:

I have managed to make the right click menus/options work in fullscreen mode. I have also made seekbar not dissapear in fullscreen mode. Is it really worth the effort to do anything else?

So maybe he could also get the menu bar to work in 3D fullscreen mode - IMHO that would also be nice to have...

[tetsuo55]

The menu's actually semi-work in the current versions.

You just have to move the mouse over the menu really fast so you can see what you're clicking.
Irritating, yes. But it works, i have been watching movies like this for months.

Auto-sound/subtitle selection for non DVD media would remove my need for using the menu completely.

Hi everyone,

I have become the project manager for MPC-HC.
This basically means that i will be keeping the bug/feature tracker up to date and do the updates on the SF pages.

At the moment we have about 42 Bugs on the bugtracker.

Below is a list of bugs that need confirmation from the users here.

I would like to ask everyone here to browse through the list and see if you can confirm a bug, or confirm that there is no problem,please update the ticket with your findings
You can see the whole list here:

Below are all the bugs that need feedback with some comments:



Tetsuo

There are two bugs which prevent watching a VC-1 encoded Bluray disc.

1. Using Internal Splitter and External decoder (ffdshow or WMV9), the playback is choppy and unwatchable. Constant stop-start jerkiness. I tested the MPEG2 splitter in Zoomplayer for VC-1 in m2ts wrapper and got the same result = it's the splitter.

2. Using Internal Splitter and Internal Decoder (non-DXVA), flashing blocks appear every couple of seconds.

As I do not wish to use DXVA (I want levels control and gamma), I am stuck.


I really, really wish that number 1 above could be fixed, as then I can watch BDs straight from the disc.

Thanks

Mark

1. Using Internal Splitter and External decoder (ffdshow or WMV9), the playback is choppy and unwatchable. Constant stop-start jerkiness. I tested the MPEG2 splitter in Zoomplayer for VC-1 in m2ts wrapper and got the same result = it's the splitter.

This is the splitter that is outputting incorrect timestamps. It also affects DTS output and makes the graph clock highly unstable. I did some debugging, but were unable to find where the error is. If I could find specs for the m2ts stream format it might be a lot easier.


2. Using Internal Splitter and Internal Decoder (non-DXVA), flashing blocks appear every couple of seconds.

This one has been fixed already in the newest SVN:

The following bugs seem to be related to the M2TS splitter

the following bugreport deals specifically with VC1

Here is a thread on mplayerhq about the m2ts splitter, it has some technical info:

It looks like madshi is an m2ts expert, maybe he could help fix the splitter?

From my limited understanding of the changed lines i doubt this will fix the DXVA problems

Errr...



But then again Beliyaal posted the following shortly after:



So maybe he could also get the menu bar to work in 3D fullscreen mode - IMHO that would also be nice to have...


it would be more than nice! It would be excactly what i want!! :)

what are the differences between this http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/History.html and this http://www.xvidvideo.ru/content/category/1/1/2/ versions of MPC HC. Seems that the last one is updated more freq. so is this the better one to use?
