Question to DEVELOPER - how can i add my message on OSD(like a Volume) ??? Many code, can't find

i find myself ...

[STaRGaZeR]

Just to confirm, for those with ATI cards have you upgraded to Catalyst 8.6? If so, can you play VC1 videos without green glitches?

Anyone has this problem or is just me?

[Aleksoid1978]

To DEVELOPER :

Can you add some code for OSD show current position/time ???

i do it here:

void CMainFrame::SeekTo(REFERENCE_TIME rtPos, bool fSeekToKeyFrame)
{
OAFilterState fs = GetMediaState();

if(rtPos < 0) rtPos = 0;
AppSettings &s = AfxGetAppSettings();
if(m_iPlaybackMode != PM_CAPTURE)
{
__int64 start, stop;
m_wndSeekBar.GetRange(start, stop);
GUID tf;
pMS->GetTimeFormat(&tf);
m_wndStatusBar.SetStatusTimer(rtPos, stop, !!m_wndSubresyncBar.IsWindowVisible(), &tf);
m_OSD.DisplayMessage(OSD_TOPLEFT, m_wndStatusBar.GetStatusTimer(), 1500);
}

and other question:

can do OSD - Transparent ???

Has anyone been able to use MPCVideoDec.ax to make a graph for decoding in the encoding process? It fails for me every time no matter what I have tried to do. A graph of Haali splitter -> MPCVideoDec.ax will play fine but when trying to load it with DirectShowSource I always get an error message telling me that the graph timed out.

[Aleksoid1978]

i find bug in mplayerc.ru.rc:

IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_34 "Медиафайлы (все типы)|__dummy|"
IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_35 "Все файлы (*.*)|__dummy|"
IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_36 "Аудиофайлы (все типы)|__dummy|"

need changed to :

IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_34 "Медиафайлы (все типы)|"
IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_35 "Все файлы (*.*)|(*.*)|"
IDS_MEDIAFORMATS_36 "Аудиофайлы (все типы)|"

because with original mplayerc.ru.rc, when use Russian language and try open files - where is no files in Open Dialog

...

and other -

Volume OSD better change to :

in mplayerc.rc add:

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
IDS_MAINFRM_VOLUME "Vol : %d%%"
END

and in MainFrm.cpp:

in this void CMainFrame::OnPlayVolume(UINT nID)
change
strVolume.Format (L"Vol : %d dB", m_wndToolBar.Volume / 100);
to
strVolume.Format (ResStr(IDS_MAINFRM_VOLUME), m_wndToolBar.m_volctrl.GetPos());

as i think it's better - support multilanguage, see not in dB - see in %

I have same problem : some of my VC1 were ok before 8.6, but now display artifacts and green block on some frames. Looking on it...

[Aleksoid1978]

i don't understood you - send what ???

That means this is: "SF account in MP" ???

[amango]

Is there a way to include MPC into Mediaportal?

[cca]

i don't understood you - send what ???

I believe he means: "Send your SourceForge account in PM (private message)" so he can add you as a developer to the project.

[johnsonlam]

I think he want your "SourceForge Account" by Private Message function, so you can access the source code directly.

Hmm....I got some question or request here. The scenario example is as below:

I just bought CoreAVC. (bang to the buck)
I wanna watch anime fansubs, but some of the anime files(in H.264) does not follow follow dxva specification.
I have a Geforce 8500gt and I can use MPC-HC H.264 DXVA for the some of the files.
If the files cannot use the H.264 DXVA, it will fallback to FFMPEG software mode.
Now, I prefer to use CoreAVC instead of FFMPEG when the fallback to software mode since CoreAVC is more efficient.
Problem is, I install the coreavc and didn't set it as "preferred decoder". Then I disable the built-in FFMPEG and only tick "Enable DXVA".
OK, I can use the DXVA with some of the files and when DXVA cannot be used on H.264 files, CoreAVC will automatically selected to decode the video.
Next, I want to run some XVID files, and it didn't show any video since FFMPEG is disabled. If I enabled the FFMPEG, the fallback software mode for H.264 will use the FFMPEG again and not the CoreAVC as I preferred.

Do anyone get what I mean? Hard to explain......

[Aleksoid1978]

Bug with OSD.

When i move mpc-hc from one monitor to other, then when must show OSD - White Windows at this time, that OSD show - and then normaly play ...

then wait some time (5-15 second) - and OSD normaly work. I don't undestand

[clsid]

@JohnLai

The "enable FFmpeg" options is indeed a bit odd. Enabling/disabling decoding of the various formats is already done by the checkboxes on the internal filters page. I already suggested to Casimir to change it. I assume it is somewhere on his todo list. The option should be changed to only apply to the DXVA decoders, and of course be renamed accordingly.

[JohnLai]

I see. Then I shall wait until Casimir change it.

Next question is, do anyone encounter where enabling "Direct3D Fullscreen", after that run XVID file and keep seeking forward and backward using the blue green slider below, then exit and open the next XVID file and also do the same seeking forward and back for few times, finally exit again using ALT+F4, and failed to "exit" properly and still in "Direct3D Fullscreen mode"(black screen) thus can't do anything as can't see anything but flashy Windows Task Manager(since I press ALT+CTRL+DEL to bring up)?

[STaRGaZeR]

I have same problem : some of my VC1 were ok before 8.6, but now display artifacts and green block on some frames. Looking on it...

Try PDVD decoder, same issue. They broke something.

Can someone fix the internal Matroska splitter?
I got some files that has a subtitle stream in mkv file, which subtitle stream can be splitted correctly with haali's splitter.
With internal Matroska splitter(or the MatroskaSplitter.ax), DirectVobSub loaded in the graph but no subtitle loaded from the subtitle stream.

Can you add "(64-bit)" to version in about menu and change caption or something (icon, logo ...) for 64-bit version so it can be differentiate from 32-bit version ? Please ! :mad:

Doubt you will see anyone fixing it anytime soon. The internal splitter is based in the original splitter by Gabest. No work is being done in that project anymore, everyone is just using the Haali splitter, since it supports ordered chapters and has many other workarounds and fixes for matroska.

MPEG Splitter 582 has problems in some Blu-rays with H.264 video. Some play fine but some play in incorrect 4:3 aspect ratio.

WMP11 or WMC (Vista, EVR)
----------------------------
MPEG Splitter + Cyberlink H.264 Decoder = Some widescreen movies play in 4:3 AR, if Vobsub enabled then only black screen and video wont play.

MPC-HC (Vista, EVR)
----------------------

MPEG Splitter + Cyberlink H.264 Decoder = Same problem. But everything works fine if I switch EVR away.
MPEG Splitter + MPC Video Decoder = Won't play this file at all.


Haali + Cyberlink works fine, so it must be splitter problem.

[foxyshadis]

Don't link directly to the Cyberlink codecs that way! That can be considered a warez link.

any chance you can start building the standalone filter regularly along with the x64 versions? I'm looking forward to the day it will start to work with dvbdream.

x64 is in alpha stage, it is experimental and buggy.

I am one of them :devil: But I use the 32bit versions of software, since the 64 bit is so immature yet. Things will change in the future, it's certain, but right now 64 bit OSes are the minority.

[ADude]

I've found that the latest version of Haali Media Splitter (29 March 2008) does not work properly with MPEG-1 videos - they stop at the beginning and state that the file is length 0:00.

If I use MPC-HC internal media splitter for MPEG-1, it is fine, but I want to use Haali Media Splitter for MPEG2 TS/PS and MPC-HC's internal splitter either does all MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 or none. :( .

Any way around this ?

No that's not what I meant. You have simply rendered a file with graphedit. What I'm trying to do is use the MPCVideoDec.ax for video encoding. So the graph should look like (I think) Haali -> MPCVideoDec.ax, and that's it. Then this graph would be used via DirectShowSource. I can't get it to work but Since all I'm doing is removing the renderer from the graph to open up a pin it should work. Right?:confused: I'm suprised that no one else has tried this. If it takes >10% processing power to decode a HD video it only makes sense to use the GPU for the decoding if possible. And we all know that it is possible. ;)

[Kado]

@saint-francis
To use MPCVideoDec.ax to offload the decoding to the GPU the next connected renderer must support DXVA, and what you are doing will not make dxva work. A renderer that supports dxva must be connected to MPCVideoDec.ax in order to have hardware decoding. Your idea is good because it will save some time because it's not the cpu that's decoding the video but the gpu , unfortunately that will not work AFAIK.

Of course! I can't believe I didn't think of that! This explains why there isn't talk about GPU decoding in every forum dedicated to encoding. Oh well. Too bad it won't work. Hopefully in the future something like this can be done.
Thanks for the clear answer Kado.

xp64 on my laptop...

I would've used it a while ago if more software was available and drivers didn't suck moose bits

my next system I plan on having a 64bit OS as well, even if it is only secondary

[cyberbeing]

I finally figured out what was causing MPC to flicker in the background through the Direct3D Fullscreen mode window. It was because I had the "Always on Top" option turned on. You might what to make a change so that "Always on Top" is automatically disabled when using Direct3D Fullscreen because I'm sure that I'm not the only person out there who has run into this problem.

Also, could the functionality of Ctrl+C be changed so it doesn't clear your playlist?

I'm proud to say I'm using exclusively and successfully MPC 64-bit + ffdshow64 on vista x64 ultimate and the only problem files that I can't play in 64-Bit (but I can play in 32-bit MPC+ Haali Media Splitter) are OGG video (aka ogm) ! ( and wav with DTS)
(Only if the mpchc's ogg splitter it's going to be fixed ....:rolleyes: I wish :p)

But only using this test builds released after the last official one !
:thanks:

[clsid]

There will be a 64-bit version of Haali's splitter very soon.

[LoRd_MuldeR]

There will be a 64-bit version of Haali's splitter very soon.

Will it be available for free or only for CoreAVC x64 owners?

[neoufo51]

There will be a 64-bit version of Haali's splitter very soon.
I hope we get a new version of the splitter altogether soon, too. That will liven things up around here.

i just downloaded the last mpc-hc with the "denoise" shader, but when i play a video and select that shader i end up with freezing mplayer and CPU at arround 50% for about 1min, after which everything goes back to normal and playback resumes

later edit: followed Carandiru's advice, and set the shaders profile to 3.0 . it works now whitout problems :D

[Carandiru]

The denoise shader I posted earlier is good, and thank you for integrating it into MPC HC.

BUT you need to set the shader profile to 3.0 for it to compile, currently in the latest SVN the shader profile is 2.0 and it fails to compile and causes some unresponsiveness of MPC.

Wicked,

Carandiru
