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

i have a 6600gt but ps3 isn't used, why?

How do you know? The resizer shader is hidden in MPC so you cannot see if it's use PS2 or PS3.
If you are talking of the other shaders visibles in shader editor, in this case you have to select manually the shader version you want to use.

[Motenai Yoda ^.^]

sorry it's true
I've tolking about option in output settings...

[leeperry]

anyone lucky with MPC HC in 48Hz ?

I'm getting judder and duplicate frames randomly with a HD2600XT on XP SP2 :(

I've tried both on my iiyama CRT and on my HC3100 projector.

60/72Hz are perfectly fine....

and when I do the tearing test(CTRL+J), the detected framerate is 60Hz whether I run 48/72 or 96 :eek:

problem is exactly the same with VMR7 Renderless or EVR...

also second parts of split MKV(with MKVtoolnix 2.1.0) refuse to play sometimes, no matter what splitter I use(Gabest, Haali, KMPlayer)

these videos play perfectly fine with KMPlayer....I can provide samples if required :)

so close to the perfect media player, so close :( :( :(

Is there any point in selecting ps_3_0 over ps_2_0 for the sharpen filter ?

:thanks:

[thuan]

Just open up CCC, the overclocking page or whatever it's called (not on my computer now and I can't remember), check the GPU usage there when you select PS2 or 3 and you will see why I said PS3 is faster on ATI card.

[leeperry]

oh right, good point!

but I read that in CRYSIS each pixel goes through a minimum of 150 PS manipulations before the image reaches your monitor, so are you sure that really matters ? :D

Is mpc-hc r.376 the ATI PS resizer fix build?

[Casimir666]

Is mpc-hc r.376 the ATI PS resizer fix build?
No it didn't. I will send a new release with this patch in a few days

Yeah, 48hz is a nightmare! Always stuttering, with cpu not even breaking a sweat. Anyone have any ideas? Or must we use 60hz?

Also, I can't get girder to work with mpc_hc when in d3d fullscreen mode. Anyone know how to set this up?

[leeperry]

you have to force reclock to resample at 24FPS, then it's just fine :)

cheers, any chance of putting the 383 (and future build numbers) in the help or somewhere as all they say 1.0.11.4 on the help menu and i'm never sure if i have the latest build or not.

is this: http://mpc-hc.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mpc-hc/?view=log the changelog for these builds you're putting out?

[leeperry]

a few problems here with MPC HC, if anyone cares to look it up :

1)DVD playback with EVR custom on XP SP2 using WinDVD8 A/V filters has several problems, which don't exist with other renderers.

you can't click on DVD menus, it seems that the "DVD Navigator" is not fed properly :
http://forum.doom9.org/archive/index.php/t-38484.html

also, skipping within DVD's will freeze the player, in EVR again.

2)selecting several files in Windows Explorer, then selecting "add to MPC Playlist" will add the files as it should but the player doesn't start. and the PLAY button is greyed out.
is that the expected behavior ?
That'd be pretty sweet if it actually started to play right away

3), that'd be pretty nice too to have the "Jitter Test" option in the fullscreen right button menu, to avoid jitter when you don't have the keyboard handy and need to go from fullscreen>window mode twice to disable it :D

:thanks:

DXVA doesn't seem to be working.
I'm using the ATI Radeon HD2600 Pro card.

Does the build posted by xxl contain the ATI resize fix?
Seems to solve the lines seen in sizing.

It should works on your card, you have XP or vista, and what renderer? Does it works with PDVD?

Yes

[leeperry]

also doesn't work here with r383 :

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/443/mpcau8.png

I've tried it on quite a lot of 720/1080p x264 mkv files, using EVR & 7.12 WHQL ATI drivers on a PCI-E HD2600XT running XP SP2(with DX9.0c november update)

DXVA works fine on .ts files in PDVD ;)

With XP Vmr9 or overlay only, no EVR ;)

[leeperry]

cool that works on 720p!
.....which my CPU can handle freely, but for 1080p it's more of a mixed bag..

but I have to disable ffdshow altogether(no more upscaling to my pj native resolution), and no EVR support :(

BTW, sorry to ask again Casimir....but do you think you could add the jitter test to the right click menu and also make the "Add to MPC Playlist" feature start playing files right away ?

that'd be really awesome :eek:

Thanks!

[Yong]

thx for the new build ;)
mirrored as usual, r383:
http://y0ngc6.googlepages.com/mplayerc.zip

1. great, no more ghost line with vmr/evr yay :D
2. vc-1 decoder removed :eek::eek:
3. mpc still crash upon exit if enable mutithread.
4. some of my h264 video still show greenish output with dxva enabled :D
5. quicktime 1080p h264 now is working with dxva enable ;)
6. video look blurry if use VMR9 renderless mode without yuv mixing, rgb32 look fine.

[iron2000]

Ok DXVA works!
Seems fine with Overlay Mixer but no good with VMR9 Renderless.
With VMR9, the image break into coloured rectangles and freeze.
Tested with H264.

[flanger216]

Sweet... a new compile!

Still no DXVA joy for me, though. If I use EVR, videos stall out at 00:00 and won't play at all; if I use VMR9, the sound plays successfully but there's no video (black screen). This is all on a Geforce 8600GT in Vista x64, and I tested both 720p MKV files and 1080p HDMOV trailers from Apple. Oh, and everything still works perfectly with PDVD's filters, but really... I'm awaiting the day when I can finally banish PowerDVD from my system altogether.

Ok with the release 373 this is what I have noticed using EVR mode that in fullscreen the context menu kept disappearing

I would right click the mouse and the menu would appear and disappear as fast as it appeared. So I just completely gave up on using EVR mode and just using my standard vmr 9 windowed mode. Also what is it about EVR mode that their is no window but only fullsize view?

Let me guess - you've checked "Direct 3D Fullscreen (remove tearing)"?

If so, this does exactly that - it forces fullscreen mode using Direct3D (like games usually do). It also causes the context menu to not work, so if you need that be sure to disable that option...

In other news, EVR custom presenter works fine under Windows XP here with Direct 3D Fullscreen disabled...

np: Tortoise - Tin Cans (Puerto Rican Mix) (Tin Cans And Twine - Brad Wood Remix) (A Lazarus Taxon (Disc 3))

Thanks I thought that setting only took effect when using fullscreen. But for some reason now I can't select custom EVR mode at all.. Any idea why? It worked before but now the option is completely grayed out...

Do you have the .NET framework 3.0 installed? That's what EVR ships with on Windows XP...

np: Uusitalo - Konevitsa (Karhunainen)

[leeperry]

use my EVR for XP package, updated with the latest DLL from Vista SP1...no .net required :
http://www.badongo.com/file/7404582

BTW, my most demanding 1080p x264 movie is giving this using OVERLAY or VMR9 :
http://thumbnails.keepmyfile.com/43/1200849241c64701.gif (http://www.keepmyfile.com/image/c647012130261)

Ok I did.. but after you asked I decided to reinstall it.. I've had .NET Framework screw up on me before.. reinstalled it.. and yep can select it now. BTW what is required to get DXVA to work with an Nvidia
Geforce Video card?

run the dxvacap utility,
if u see this on the output:

- Direct 3D format : NV12
- Config 1, ConfigBitstreamRaw=1
- Config 2, ConfigBitstreamRaw=2
means ur GPU support dxva:D

2. vc-1 decoder removed :eek::eek:
It will came back when finished ;) Not working at all at the moment

4. some of my h264 video still show greenish output with dxva enabled :D
Yes i know, but i think the problem came from video card that didn't support some files with profile greater than 4.1. I haven't find a solution yet to detect this and switch to software mode in this case...

Well the link is no good to the software. Need a good link for the XP version.

Ok found a proper link for it.. http://bluesky23.hp.infoseek.co.jp/index.html#DXVAChecker which has been updated to version 1.5.0.1 and that is the proper link for the file.

Ok how about this line?

NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT
ModeH264_MoComp_PureVideo: DXVA1, NV12

Isn't that dxva for H264? After all the nvidia cards list for purevideo shows this video card to support it.

[Shinigami-Sama]

yeah thats pretty much what I was thinking as well
unless I missed something in that thread

[thuan]

Thank you, this build works like the old builds lol. But I have a system freeze yesterday (damn it was scary :D) when trying to play a new file (http://d-addicts.com/forum/viewtopic_56749.htm) that I haven't tested with any old builds.

[3ngel]

Hi Casimir666,

i'm testing MPC HT x64 1.0.11.0

If i try to open a DVD with the "Open DVD..." it says

DVD Navigator::Video failed to connect to pins

With the MPC standard it works no problem.

What's the problem here?

Thanks

EDIT:
Oh i saw right now that the x64 build misses the MPEG2 transform filter. Why's that? I don't have vista.
Can you add the MPEG2 module compiled in it?
Thanks

[Yong]

It will came back when finished ;) Not working at all at the moment
great:)

omg thats mean my card doesnt support greater than 4.1 level?:eek::devil:

hmm btw, software mode already faster than ffdshow/mplayer,
amazingly fast:sly:
keep on the good works, thanks alot;)

one more thing, whats the points by having 3 mpeg4-asp decoder(divx/xvid/generic mpeg4) with different name on transform filter page? :p

hmm iirc, h264 dxva on mpc-hc only support vld_nofgt :p

[Kado]

Yes that's correct, mpc hc dxva only supports bitstream meaning that the card has to do everything and not only postprocessing.
Geforce 8 series or better I suppose.

i remember Casimir666 said it support dxva1 too, but not sure if its mo_comp or vld_nofgt:confused:

Only vld_nofgt too for DXVA1.

[leeperry]

embedded subtitles in MKV files seem to always be too early of around half a second, using Haali's Splitter w/ EVR & 20 buffers on XP.

anyone knows why ? a possible fix ?

thanks!

[KOSTYA1986]

Video does not rewind when dxva is active

[thuan]

@leeperry: Yeah that's the issue with buffers, let it at the default value and you won't have that problem. To be honest I don't like EVR buffer, it makes seeking lag, choosing it at the lowest setting make the video stuck though.

[leeperry]

actually I've disabled the built-in subs filter, then I've used dvobsub 1.8, set it to +500ms.....and everything's fine now :D

plz fix DVD2AVI (Now DGIndex) file play, not working :(

@Casimir666
Can you add support for .png to the "Save Image..." function?

I know it's not a top priority function, but it would be very useful when doing multiple screenshots and having them already compressed (losslessy) to upload on image sites hosting.

Thanks.

hmm i got a avi h264 video encoded by mencoder, its make my video display driver stop responding when using mpc h264 decoder with dxva enabled :eek:
remuxing to matroska avoided the crash.

[Demi9OD]

Great work on EVR with the most recent patches. It's almost working perfectly for me now in XP+SP3 RC1. The only remaining issue I have is lockups on seek when using EVR Custom on DVDs. Regular Vista EVR will also lockup on seek BUT unlocks the video stream when you double click to resize full/window. MKVs and AVIs can seek without issue.

[Miryan]

@Casimir666
If "Save Image..." function is on topic, can you fix the AR on the pictures saved from a dvd? MPC can save everything in the correct AR, except DVDs.

[clsid]

I think that AR bug applies to anything that is anamorphic, not just DVDs.
