[SamuriHL]

Yea, turn that crap off if you wanna do video. :)

I've been trying to get regular DVD iso images to playback via LAV. Is this not supported (menu and such)? No problems using default MPC-HC setup.

My External Filters setup:
Lav Splitter v.35
Lav Splitter Src v.35
Lav CUVID v.12
Lav Audio v.35

Am I missing something? Thanks.

[Midzuki]

@ nightfly: No, LAV Splitter is not a DVD navigator, and LAV Video does not include a subpicture decompressor (which, BTW, would require a major fix in ffmpeg/libav).

[fairchild]

Yeah to watch DVD's you need to have another video decoder installed in system which can decode DVD. I use ffdshow libavcodec and it works just fine with DVD Navigator + Lav Audio. I can play DVD's with either MPC-HC or PotPlayer just fine. I'd imagine you could also use your video player's internal codecs as well if they have some that support DVD decoding (MPEG2 + DVD decoding).

Oh yeah I forgot to add, if you bypass the DVD menu's and just open the individual movie VOB files, then Lav Splitter + Lav Video + Lav Audio work just fine for me.

[hoborg]

It probably does nothing for ATI/AMD cards. DXVA-HD seems not supported. You would notice the chroma problem immediately.

Here is another version, this one uses DXVA2 Video Processing, instead of DXVA-HD.

http://files.1f0.de/lavf/LAVVideo-dxva2vp-test.zip

This should probably work on ATI/AMD.
Same rules and restrictions apply.

BTW, its not tuned for quality or anything at all yet. Its just to test device capabilities and speed.
Its also a debug build, which is generally slower then a release build. ;)

I cannot register it, what is missing? Module failed to load.

[nevcairiel]

It requires Windows 7, on XP it won't even load.
Sounds to me its just not finding the required libraries (which are not present on XP)

2 missing imports in XP:
Direct3DCreate9Ex() in d3d9.dll, according http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc656710.aspx you have to use Direct3DCreate9() instead.

DXVAHD_CreateDevice() in dxva2.dll, you may use dynamic loading instead.

Its not meant to work on XP.
DXVAHD requires a 9Ex device, a "normal" D3D9 device is not good enough. ;)

Don't worry, if it ends up in the main code one day, it'll dynamically load those functions, to ensure the whole filter still works on XP.

[Thunderbolt8]

no video at all with dxv2

video with dxva-hd looked normal. but I had 2 seperate halfes of the picture, one being b&w, the other green, when I used ffdshow (set to accept raw video) in between lav video and madvr

I've since added mpc-hc.exe to the program list in Nvidia control panel and disabled everything (AA, AF set to Off etc). It didn't make a difference, unfortunately.

So I have still no clue why it was so slow compared to your ~200 fps, nev.

[mzso]

I guess the rumors are true, and ATI is really abysmally slow on memory copys.

Fun fact: Intels IGP supports DXVA-HD, at least partly. It supports NV12 input, but only YUY2 or RGB output.
Its somewhat slow, but still watchable.

Is it still true with fusion processors? If I understand correctly there's only one memory in that case. But there might be something that complicates things I don't know of...

[pankov]

Guys,
today I tried to bistream some DTS in WAV and sadly it didn't work. It either crashed the player (tested with Zoom Player, MPC-HC and Graph Studio) or resulted in some strange noise clicks in the speakers connected to the receiver (Integra DTR-40.3).
Strangely it worked a few times but only if I start the playback without bitstreaming and enable it afterwards in LAV Audio's config.
Is this problem happening only to me or there is some kind of general limitation? If it's not possible to make it work is it at least possible to make it not crash the player?
I have absolutely no problems with such files if I decode the stream with LAV Audio and then send it as multichannel PCM over the HDMI output of my video card.

hi all, this video is stuttering when i am using lav audio, but when i use internal mph hc filters (dts/ac3) it is playing ok, both with internal or haali ps/ts/pva filter.

Bug: when LAVVideo.ax 0.35 is registered, trying to add the filter (Graph > Insert Filters) in Graphedit build 090924 kills Graphedit, the process simply vanishes!

Use older GraphEdit from DirectX 9 SDK or GraphStudio instead.

[mindbomb]

lav splitter gives a black screen with the mkv vc-1i cheese slice test when using wmvideo decoder dmo, but it suceeds with cyberlink video decoder. ( http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showpost.php?p=16956445&postcount=41 )

also, this has nothing to do with lav video, but wmvideo decoder dmo is multithreaded for progressive videos but single threaded for interlaced videos.

It seems like microsoft can't design a proper decoder for their own format :confused:

Use older GraphEdit from DirectX 9 SDK or GraphStudio instead.

Thank you, switching at last ;)

[Midzuki]

also, this has nothing to do with lav video, but wmvideo decoder dmo is multithreaded for progressive videos but single threaded for interlaced videos.

It seems like microsoft can't design a proper decoder for their own format :confused:

LOL :) :p :D

Windows Media Player replays all audio streams simultaneously. This is normal. WMP does not support AVI files, don't use it.

...

Also it's Microsoft's AVI splitter that limits the size of AVI 1.0 files to 2 GB instead of 4 GB by interpreting the size as a signed value where it should be unsigned...

it played fine for me. you have to use lav splitter as well.

yes now not stuttering but i have to use mpeg/ps/ts/pva from mpc hc if not the video don't show with lav splitter one, i think this mpc hc filter is better(for my system) than haali and lav filters

lav filter don't have cdda and i have several problems with dts wav (cd audio and files), internal mpc hc dts filter is capable to play dts wav files, and foobar2000 and vlc are capable to play both cd/file dtswav sound.
I " practice " with lav filter but i will not be my main filter group , but yes the lav audio, it rocks!

thanks

lav splitter gives a black screen with the mkv vc-1i cheese slice test when using wmvideo decoder dmo, but it suceeds with cyberlink video decoder. ( http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showpost.php?p=16956445&postcount=41 )

Thats using some VC-1 feature that i haven't seen in any real file before. Its using field interlacing, all other interlaced VC-1 i know uses frame interlacing...

I'll see if i can improve the parser a bit to handle that better.

... And i did, it should work better in the next version.

Did you run the multithreading check only against that file? Maybe its because of the field mode that its not working so well. Field mode is never really used, neither in progressive nor in interlaced.

[mindbomb]

i tested with 2 other interlaced videos too, but it is possible those were also field interlaced.

also, on a completely different note, feature request - DTS Surround Sensation Headphone processing from Arcsoft TMT software (presumably DTSheadphone.dll), would it be possible to add to lav audio? im thinking it might not be too difficult since it already has the ability to use one arcsoft dll, but i have no idea.

[Midzuki]

Regarding the file "300-vc1-nodecode.m2ts", it seems to be a mixture of frame-interlacing, field-interlacing, and no-interlacing.

:confused: :confused: :confused:

EDIT:

It's Advanced 3 with both Frame Interlaced and Field Interlaced pictures. It plays fine in DGVC1DecNV. I haven't tried a DXVA player.

Not going to happen.

I have that clip somewhere, i should throw it at the MS decoder, see if it works now. :)

[nevcairiel]

In other news, i started separating the avcodec decoder from the LAV Video "core", paving the way for implementing distinctly different decoder implementations in LAV Video.

I'm not sure which decoder i'll start with, but there are a few on the list that i could embed into LAV Video eventually:
- WMV DMO (like ffdshows wmv9)
- CUVID
- DXVA2
- Intel Media SDK (not sure it offers any advantage over DXVA2, afaik its just a wrapper around the pure DXVA2 functions)

[hoborg]

I am voting for DXVA2 :)

[nevcairiel]

I should really get my hands on some ATI card so that i can much easier test different ways to deal with DXVA2 on ATI, rathern then stabbing in the dark. :)
Too bad even my work PC has a NVIDIA (a pretty old Quadro, but still!)

I'm looking for a new notebook anyway, maybe i should try to get one with a ati in it.

I can send you my ATI 6450 when i upgrade my HTPC to AMD fusion A8-3800 :)

@nevcairiel: I just want my FSV1 patch be applied, as MPC-HC's FLV splitter can now able to make a FSV1 output pin now. (most FSV1 videos are produced by vnc2flv)
http://code.google.com/p/lavfilters/issues/detail?id=89

[nevcairiel]

I'll apply it later

Does LAV Splitter not manage to split it?

Yeah it splits. But it refuse to connect if there has no FSV1 decoder available.

Hi Nev,

This one plays fine with ffplay.exe (and crashes with ffdShow), but is not yet recognized by LAV VD:

MS_RLE (http://www.mediafire.com/?c4y5wyow7n233y7)

Thanks!

IMHO you should report this issue in ffdshow thread too.

Wouldn't mind seeing support for the Intel Media SDK. Currently the FFDShow Video Decoder / MPC Internal Video Decoder is unusable with an Intel GPU

My DXVA2 would also support the Intel GPU, so the question remains what the MSDK offers.

Good point, not sure what the MSDK offers above DXVA2

[roytam1]

IMHO the problem is that Intel doesn't follow the DXVA2 rules, period.

[dbone1026]

IMHO the problem is that Intel doesn't follow the DXVA2 rules, period.

Which is a shame because it keeps me away from intel GPUs (even using the Arcsoft Video decoder to get DXVA in VC-1 I have gotten some instabilities)

[nevcairiel]

As far as i understand, they follow the spec, however they use parts of the spec that NVIDIA/ATI don't use. Specifically, there is two ways to send H264 slices to the GPU, a quick and easy way, which lets the GPU to all the "hard" work, and a complicated way which makes it easier on the GPU, but harder on the software. NVIDIA/ATI support the "Short" variant, while Intel only supports the "Long".

Anyhow, if its too complicated to implement this, the MSDK is always there - but of course its another decoder adapter to implement.

[Sven75]

And another one...

According to the author this plays too fast with LAV VD. Graphstudio shows a length of 36 seconds, but the clip ends after 14. MPC with internal filters shows 36 seconds as well and plays it for 36 seconds (same number of frames, just slower).

MPEG with speed/length problem (http://www.mediafire.com/?r6grr6lrit38dzp)

Maybe the file is just broken, but in case there is something to fix (and learn)...

[clsid]

Any chance of a DXVA1 implementation as well? I would like to see the LAV decoders replace the buggy and outdated internal decoders of MPC. LAV is already vastly superior. The only thing missing is DXVA.

Replacing the internal decoders would also have the added benefit of speeding up integration of some of the video renderer fixes. Those are currently on hold because of decoder bugs/limitations.

[mindbomb]

interlaced vc-1 dxva would only be available with the intel one, right?

[nevcairiel]

No.
I don't have XP to develop it, and i honestly don't care anymore.

Even my work PC was upgraded to Win 7 just last week, and big companies are the last to switch. :p

No, adding the required VC-1 interlaced header parsing to get interlaced DXVA to work would probably be possible.

[clsid]

The MPC/ffdshow DXVA decoders are hacked into libavcodec, which doesn't support interlaced VC-1. I assume nevcairiel will make a proper implementation. So the question is does the MS DXVA decoder support VC-1 interlaced?

[nevcairiel]

ffmpeg supports DXVA2 decoding by itself now, no hacking required. All thats needed is adding header-parsing for interlaced frames/fields, so that the correct information can be passed to the DXVA functions.

The MS decoder of course supports interlaced VC-1, however you cannot use DXVA outside of WMP.

[Thunderbolt8]

is it^^ the same for DXVA2?

is it not possible to make the player of your choice pretending to be WMP so that the MS decoder would work? maybe some small integration of a player recognition part would work?

[Xaurus]

nev,

I can send you my ATI 6450 when i upgrade my HTPC to AMD fusion A8-3800 :)
I have a 5770 that I am not using since replacing it with my 570 GTX. I could donate it if you are interested.
