Let me please get some clarification on this recent change in support for dxva...

"ATI Radeon HD,..." that means all Radeon HD models? If so, why is HD3850/3870 singled out? The first time I saw the change I did not see the comma and thought that only the 3850/3870 models were supported.

And has all the problems with nvidia cards (including my own) led to the reason that nvidia is not in the list of dxva supported cards?

The homepage for the project still lists nvidia cards...

All ATI HD are supported as far as i know. For nVidia and video cards from other manufactuers it "should" (may?) works as long as they support bitstream acceleration, but there is more compatibility issues with mpc buildin dxva decoder.

Because I am am not the only one having problems with seeking with mkv/H264 files in DXVA mode, I thought I should post a bit more details about this problem

When I do this while debuging, I get an "Debug assertation failure" at line 224 in DXVADecoderH264.cpp
This is the code at this line:

CHECK_HR (BeginFrame(nSurfaceIndex, pSampleToDeliver));

The problem seems to be, that pSampleToDevlier turns negative due to the seeking; this is what I observe in the output window:

Negative reference time are not a problem on seek, because video decoder should also decode frames until previous IFrame (so before the seek point).

But assert failed on BeginFrame is a problem : can you tell me what is the value for hr variable when assertion occur ?

Was wondering any1 having the same problem as me.

I play a MTV.mp4(Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 512x384 15.00fps Audio: AAC 22050Hz stereo 56Kbps) for awhile and stopped(did not close). Then I play it again, but this time the clip fail to play at all. I m using mpc-hc(r502), vista home 32, GT8600 (169.25), EVR custom, DXVA is enabled. No problem when DXVA is disable. Thanks.

Secondly, Filename contains unsupported characters (use only A-Z, 0-9) when I play any media (except .mp4) MPC-HC r502, not happen on r492.

Thanks.

to Casimir666 and _xxl -
I am from Russia, that is my English is bad ...

Can you add select Monitor(if more than one) for FullScreen video(when change to FullScreen mode) - like it do in "The Kmplayer" http://www.kmplayer.com/forums/index.php, Because Nvidia 8xxx and 9xxx not support FullScreen Overlay and when see video on 2-n monitor no FullScreen Video ..

I am do it self - http://www.tosei.ru/isoft/MPC_HC_501.7Z - this is compiled already, for example.

See on Output Page in Setting

seems to play ok here with MPC r502 and ffdshow *shrug*

Ok I have tried with r502 and it failed also. So I tried EVR that worked.. tried DX7 and that worked.. But for ATI it's recommended for the fullscreen theatre mode to use Overlay mode.. I tried overlay mode and it failed. So the problem seems to be in overlay mode portion of MPCHC. I found D.Grayman episode 52 by Shinsen-Subs also failed to work in MPCHC.

But assert failed on BeginFrame is a problem : can you tell me what is the value for hr variable when assertion occur ?

If I did it correctly, then HR changes from S_Ok (=0x00000000) to E_Pending (=0x8000000a) when the Debug assertion occurs.

This is what I did:

In the function "DXVADecoder::BeginFrame..." under "case ENGINE_DXVA2 :" I have added the second of the following two lines:
if (SUCCEEDED (hr)) hr = m_pDirectXVideoDec->BeginFrame(pDecoderRenderTarget, NULL);
TRACE ("Hr is: (hr=0x%08x)\n", hr);<--this is the line I have added

This is what I see during a failed seek (or after openeing an mkv file that apparently does not play):

Hr is: (hr=0x00000000)
Deliver : 31149625 - 31569625 (Dur = 420000) {Delta prev = 420000} Ind = 1

---------------------------------------------------
everything OK until here, the the seeking occurs:
---------------------------------------------------

Hr is: (hr=0x8000000a)
...(18 more times the same line)
Hr is: (hr=0x8000000a)
Error : 0x8000000a

Does that help you? My feeling is, if you find the reason for this bug, this could make some people happy currently complaining that files apparently do not play. (In fact I manage to play those files by seeking in debug mode many times until the file starts to play.

Ok the DirectX surface is not ready :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms778817(VS.85).aspx

The HRESULT that is returned by IAMVideoAccelerator::BeginFrame shall be:
S_OK if the uncompressed surface is available and ready for use.
E_PENDING if the uncompressed surface is not yet available for use but will become available soon (if the uncompressed surface is being read for display and the reading/display of the surface has not yet been completed).
E_FAIL or E_INVALIDARG some other error indication only if a data format or protocol error is detected (such as an incorrect value of dwSizeInputData or a non-NULL pOutputData).

Could you try this quick fix in function CDXVADecoder::BeginFrame : put a loop around call to BeginFrame (be carefull there is 2 possibility wether you are using DXVA1 (Win XP) or DXVA2 (Vista) :

for (int nTry=0; nTry<5; nTry++)
{
hr = m_pAMVideoAccelerator->BeginFrame(&BeginFrameInfo);
if (SUCCEEDED (hr)) return hr;
TRACE ("QueryRenderStatus FAILED : %d - %d (hr=0x%08x)\n", dwTypeIndex, dwBufferIndex, hr);

Sleep(10);
}

It's a quick fix i'll see later if it could be improved.

This is actually a special case for BeginFrame from the original DXVA 1.01 spec (also applies to GetBuffer).

BeginFrame (and GetBuffer in DXVA1) may return E_PENDING if the HW is not able to accept more data at this time.
The correct code should be:

while (E_PENDING == (hr = m_pAMVideoAccelerator->BeginFrame(...)))
{
Sleep(1); // wait a bit
}

I suppose you are using VS2005, so you need to install "Windows SDK" (link on first post) and configure visual studio to use Windows SDK path for include / lib

Already install SDK from link on first post and add path for include/lib ...

In MPC, go to View -> Options -> Playback -> Output.

Set DirectShow Video to VMR9 (windowed). Now, if you do a Save Image..., then the resultant screenshot should have the correct AR.

}
Now instead of a Debug Assertion the loop is entered 2 two 3 times for about 24 frames (coincidence?), then it works without entering the loop...like it needs some time to swing in...

There is another Debug Assertion poping up when I stop the playbak of files: It happens at line 220 in DXVADecoderH264.cpp: CHECK_HR (GetFreeSurfaceIndex (nSurfaceIndex, &pSampleToDeliver, rtStart, rtStop));

The return code 0x80040211..no idea what this stands for.

Got my Radeon HD3450 in the mail yesterday and installed it on my XP Media Center.

I am finally happy with x264 DXVA playback in mpc-hc. However, I need to use the Overlay renderer to get good picture quality. The VMR's don't look good. My goal is to watch x264 files with the media center app which uses WMP. However, I can't seem to get WMP to use a renderer other than VMR. I have given the overlay renderer the highest merit possible but that doesn't work.

Also, I feel like I have taken a step back in MPEG decode quality from my Nvidia 7600GS.

My questions are as follows:

1) Can I force a different renderer in WMP some other way than the merit system?

2) Should I try to install EVR for XP? Can I get hardware acceleration with that renderer and does it look good?

3) Will MPEG decode quality improve if I get a better ATI card or is ATI simply inferior to nvidia when it comes to MPEG playback?

I thank you for reading this far and I thank you even more for replying.

Hi,

there is a thing I do not understand: I use mplayerhc on my 780G chipset, and want to use the internal decoders of mplayer only. However, I have also installed ffdshow. When I watch a video supported by mphc, ffdshow is additionally enabled, i.e. when I right-click on my Mediaplayerwindow and select "Filter", I can see that the MPC-Videodecoder is used, but in that chain also ffdshow, so both seem to be used.

I have now solved the problem by entering mplayerhc.exe in ffdshows-excludelist, but I simply would liek to understand why this happens, i.e. why does ffdshow "jump in", although I use mplayerhc's internal decoders?

Thanks alot.

thuan

8th May 2008, 09:29

Likely you have enabled raw processing inside ffdshow video decoder. That setting is in ffdshow video decoder configuration -> codecs -> the last entry "raw video" there. Just disable it.

Can i suggest 2 options?

1) "Play DVD directly" on "Open DVD" or at least permit to choose a default drive in order not to choose everytime the drive wich contains the DVD. I remember in some version of MPC, the playing started directly upon auto-detecting an inserted dvd

2) Please can you add .ac3, .dts, .avs to the filter when choosing "Open files..."? At the moment they are not listed (and so not viewed) when open the dialog box even if they are supported. You have to choose "view all", that is quite complex on repeated tests.

Thanks

Moreover, it's quite strange, why a supported format is not included in the filter list? :)

The MPC-HC project site provides stand-alone DirectShow filters, the H.264 decoder being MPCVideoDec. Place MPCVideoDec.ax in the System32 folder and register it using regsvr32 MPCVideoDec.ax
The filter that will be used by default is the one with the highest Merit Value.

THe patch works! BTW, the bigger the vertical resolution (1920x1040 vs 1920x800 vs..), the more pending cycles are made-->so it really seems the 8800 GT can not keep up with decoding for the first few frames. Those were the files were playback did not even (or seldom) start.

Thanks again!

Since I got a 9800GTX I wanted to try the DXVA2 stuff from MPC HC (because my older 6800GS was DXVA1 only it wasn't possible) but evr displays a washed out picture that's just annoying.
After some talk with Casimir I've done some tests and to fix the problem you just have to replace the sp1 evr with the pre-sp1 evr and the picture is again proper with evr custom presenter and washed out with evr standard!

File with instructions here (http://rapidshare.com/files/113537090/evr.rar.html), if you don't like or can't get the file because of the provider say it so I can put it elsewhere.

Now about DXVA in MPC HC.
With this file (http://rapidshare.com/files/113536801/Suzumiya_Haruhi_no_Yuuutsu_-_C4_-_Special_Ending_-__Hitsuji__e569a2b7_.mkv.html) the internal MPC HC DVXA does not work but the Cyberlink h264 decoder from Power DVD 8 can use DXVA with it using evr.
I also have a file that with the internal decoder is played with video corruption and with cyberlink's is displayed just fine but is quite large to store online.

Now about DXVA in MPC HC.
With this file (http://rapidshare.com/files/113536801/Suzumiya_Haruhi_no_Yuuutsu_-_C4_-_Special_Ending_-__Hitsuji__e569a2b7_.mkv.html) the internal MPC HC DVXA does not work but the Cyberlink h264 decoder from Power DVD 8 can use DXVA with it using evr.

This seems to be the same problem I had - Casimir fixed it with the recent patch he uploaded: This file plays fine, just at the beginning a few (of the newly introduced) pending loops are made. The only thing that surprises me are that these loops are made despite the low resolution - this does not really support my theory from above...

"Media files (all types)" in the Open dialog uses all the file extensions from "options > player > formats". So adding those three extensions there should do what you want.

Really? For me it's a "new" way of adding filters to a dialog box (can be interesting eheh), and in this case i can add that to "only add" without "managing" (MPC opens on DoubleClick) the file types, they can be added in the textbox, then "set" and then uncheck the corresponding row. It does work anyway (i speak for those in the same situation like me).

So very thank clsid (quite unusual but it works) :)

Just started to use MPC-HC. Very nice piece of software for DXVA h264/vc1!

Maybe this option could be added? =>
MPC-HC automatically switches to the best refresh rate on the current display it starts playing a video according to the video refresh rate property and available refresh rates from screen that the user specified in "View/Options..."

For example, say monitor is declared by user capable of 50hz and 60hz at a user-given resolution for full-screen, then:
- if film rate is 24000/1000hz => monitor rate switched to 50hz
- if film rate is 25000/1001hz => monitor rate switched to 50hz
- if film rate is 25000/1000hz => monitor rate switched to 50hz
- if film rate is 30000/1001hz => monitor rate switched to 60hz
- if film rate is 30000/1000hz => monitor rate switched to 60hz

As a side effect, ReClock filter would then be able to fix the video refresh rate to the screen's.
And maybe with PowerStrip would we be able to have perfect sync' for xx000/1001hz videos.

Hi bonanza...

Even though your PC could be capable of h264 (x264) DX Hardware Video Acceleration, not all h264 Videos can be accelerated. Some are just too "complex" for that sort to say.

First, check your video encoding features with, for example:
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
(use html view).

Then check:
codec profile and level
width and height of video
number of ref frames (ref=?)
bframes and bpyramid
x264 version used
and:
http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1078122&postcount=1

Nice day 2U :-)

Hi,

i'm using Vista 32bit ultimate and your latest MPC-HC build.
Renderer: EVR Custom (have a look at attachments)
videodecoder: CoreAVC Pro 1.6
audiodecoder: AC3Filter

movie: x264 coded

but DXVA is disabled (have a look at the 2. picture at attechments)

how to enable this very nice feature?

CoreAVC Pro does not support DXVA.

( There was a commercial where Jessica Simpson said "1080i - I don't know what it is, but I want it."
It seems that a commercial for Doom9 would instead need the line " DXVA - I don't know what it is, but I want it". )

You can disconnect the playlist window from the player. Just drag&drop. But I agree that the playlist is pretty much useless in its current condition.
I am reminding this project:
http://www.geocities.com/projectcowbell/

The source is also available, (it's based upon MPC v6.4.7.3, I think), so if it's not much work, you can apply these to the current MPC forks (you may want to make contact with the author for the patches, if he is available :) )

Inflammatory statements against the coders can be possible violations of rules 4 and/or 9(caps).

Using free beta/alpha software implies you are a guinea pig and if that is an issue dont install it. (yes, even if other beta software has worked more consistently for you.) Points can be made without being insulting and/or demanding.

Modified Sun May 4 11:33:32 2008 UTC (7 hours, 39 minutes ago) by casimir666
Added : Ukrainian translation
Added : Evo & M2TS media format (for mpc file association)

now all we need is a built in splitter :D
I can only find revisions up to r502. r506 is nowhere to be found. Can you tell me where to find any builds above r502?

Ya, users like you and gods like OP provide the builds. Go the changelog and you can download the source code and compile yourself using utilities listed on the first page.

speaking of the first page, r510 is posted!

I just got r510 and I love it.

These builds are making smplayer and mplayer in general feel ancient by comparison.

Just finished testing MPC-HC r510 (32bits) from the first page... Video seeking is completely fixed for both DXVA and the internal (Software) Video Decoder. Best build so far.

When using DXVA, I still have the blockiness problem on some x264 videos.

I believe thats inherent to dxva on some cards skipping the inloop deblocking

glad to see the seeking is fixed
looks like its time for me update

Well I get some blockiness/corruption if using internal DXVA but with cyberlink's H264 decoder (using DXVA) I get a perfect picture, I'm using a 9800gtx by the way. I guess there must be some issues with the nvidia cards because it seems it works fine with ATI Radeon HD cards.

Anyway MPC HC just gets better and better! Thanks to the developers for their efforts and support! :thanks:

Hi im using MPC-HC x64 v 1.1.0.0.
Most of x264 encodes are working just fine and w/ hw acceleration via dxva. But i have some encodes especially anime encodes that not only that i have no hw accelearation, but i have no video image although the audio and subtitles are displayed

Here is a screenshot from mpc:

And here is a sample from that encode:
http://www.filebox.ro/download.php?key=d5711c0f98f91a19bdeb8b4d2669b70e

Some info about encode via Mediainfo

Codec/Family : AVC
Codec/Info : Advanced Video Codec
Codec profile : High@L5.1
Codec settings, CABAC : Yes
Codec_Settings_RefFrames : 10
PlayTime : 1mn 19s
Bit rate : 2327 Kbps
Width : 1280 pixels
Height : 720 pixels
Display Aspect ratio : 16/9
Frame rate : 23.976 fps
Chroma : 4:2:0
Interlacement : Progressive

The video works fine in mpc-hc x32 with coreavc / ffdshow

Maybe in later builds of mpc-hc x64 the problem is fixed(meaning i can have video without hw acceleration) but I didnt managed to compile a new build.

P.S. Great work with DXVA and on top of all things you offer it FREE (unlike other h264 decoders).

One more question. For my curiosity mostly. Why on 64bit version i have 0-1% cpu load and on 32bit version with same video encode and settings in mpc, i have 5-10% cpu load.
