AviSynth script (http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Main_Page) and AVS (https://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php/AVS) are two different files, but have the same extension .avs. :(

added:
Do you have an AVS video file that can be opened in MPC-BE or MPC-HC?

thx for the info:thanks:

script=脚本，file=文件

i don't have any AVS files :D actually, this is the first time i know the AVS file.

in wiki and search, i think AVS is a file format, is a standard from a trade association by ours government......independent intellectual property rights......

strictly speaking, AviSynth script=AviSynth 脚本

but usually, we basically say that this is "AVS 脚本"（AviSynth script）

to prevent misunderstandings, i think "AviSynth 脚本" is truely better:D

i cant open firefoxsend right now...and dont know why...try this one...https://fil.email/iYmaArTT (with "AviSynth 脚本")

MPC Video Renderer v0.3.8.1060 (https://github.com/Aleksoid1978/VideoRenderer/releases/tag/0.3.8)
Description (https://github.com/Aleksoid1978/VideoRenderer/blob/0.3.8/Readme.md).

Changes:
Improved compatibility with third-party players.
Fixed switching supported formats for DXVA2 and D3D11 video processors during playback.
Faster statistics rendering. A pre-prepared texture with symbols is used.

it seems that it shows a black frame before showing actual frame when seeking. (environment: win7 x64, MPC-HC 1.9.0 64bit)

My buddy has another issue with a specific line in this sample with a Teletext subtitle:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_pHHy9Kl51lNWFMM4SK3wISRnNhQ_DCG

There is the mpg file with is the sample file and he made some screenvideos using MPC-BE and Potplayer and what happend.
I downloaded 1.5.5.5000 and can reproduce that the following piece at 01:30 is showed a bit too late.

When I served under Leia,
she would say, hope is like the sun.

I beg for help, again :)

Options -> Internal Filters -> Buffer length - set to 10 sec. :)
Default value 3 is not enough to parse end of this subtitles block and it's happened small later :)

[Klaus1189]

Thank you, it works for him :)

@wushantao
Thanks. Updated in r5001.

[Klaus1189]

I found some inconsistencies according the tooltips of the language dll files in Windows explorer:
For example *eu* has still Media Player Classic - Home Cinema in it:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wFmSSuGO9k3WLn_5hbuXQjH2mi-M-iGF/view?usp=sharing

And some tooltips are not written in english, these are in their according language. I think it would look much better to use only english or each language.

[v0lt]

@Klaus1189
Thanks. I fixed it in r5013. These fields are not translated and will only be in English.

[Anima123]

There's a flicher when the first subtitle appears, using XySubFilter with MPC Video Renderer, and in DX11 mode, would it indicate a possible bug?

No flicker with DX9 mode.

[Klaus1189]

Thank you v0lt :)

Hi. I joined some old xvid avi's and wound up re-encoding the file to hevc stored in mkv using VideoReDo. I tried to play the file with MPC-BE 1.5.4 portable and nothing happens. MPC-BE starts, sits for a couple seconds and then closes. The video never starts. I couldn't find anywhere to turn on a logfile so I have no further details. I found MPC-HC has been updated by Clsid so I tried that (MPC-HC 1.9.0) and it plays fine. I also tested the file in Kodi and it plays there as well. Out of curiosity I remuxed with mkvmerge and then MPC-BE played it fine. So, it seems that MPC-BE might have a bug in its mkv parser?

[Aleksoid1978]

Upload short file for test.

R5022 - Fixed crash when opening files with HEVC tracks and an empty CodecPrivate block.

Yes it is possible. But we do not know which versions of the components you are using.
In any case, I can advise you to change the "Swap effect" setting. If that doesn't work, then just use DX9 mode.

[juanrugge]

hi. so i have this problem back on MPC-HD (with madVR and lavfilters) where whenever i change subtitles or audio, i lost audio and video gets choppy (lower frame rate and frames missing).
after using MPC-BE with madVR and lavfilters, everything work fine for like 2 weeks, and then the same problem happen, didnt update anything. now way to recover from this, only restart player.
load ext subtitles works. i mostly play mkv files, and its the included audio and subs in the container that i cant change.
can someone please guide me as to what could be causing this? if you need any info just ask me. thanks.

[ryrynz]

Aleksoid, Volt, would you consider an option to allow a small rewind in seconds after resuming when paused?
My Yamaha receiver takes a second for the audio to re-engage so I have to skip back a step each time I unpause so I don't miss audio.
A user defined setting of 1-3 seconds or so could be useful, anyone else in a similar situation or also like this idea?

[Aleksoid1978]

Use MPC Audio Renderer using Exclusive mode and release when idle ?

[ryrynz]

Yes, I've unticked release when idle now and it's better thanks. I would still make use of this feature if it was available though as there's still a small delay.

I tested latest MPCVideoRenderer-v0.4.0.1114_git2020.01.26-f040872 Nightly and if I enable D3D11 with MPC-BE and external LAV Filters I get a solid green video view. D3D9 is fine.
Going back to latest stable MPCVideoRenderer-v0.3.8.1060 solves the issue. I use Windows 10 Pro 64 bit with MPC-BE 1.5.5.5046 and latest LAVFilters-0.74.1-31 and AMD 20.1.3 driver for 5700XT.

I did some more tests, if I use DXVA2 it works, but if I use software decoding the issue appears. Same for internal filters of MPC-BE.

I got new DAC recently (RME ADI 2 on USB) and I tried it with MPC Audio Renderer, but the WASAPI exclusive mode is causing stuttering in movie playback. No problems in shared mode or with other audio renderer, but then the sample rate is obviously not auto switched. How is the WASAPI implemented in MPC? Push mode or event mode? For example in foobar this DAC has problems in event mode but push mode works OK. I also tried various settings in MPC Audio Renderer including buffer sizes but it always stutters in exclusive mode with any content no matter what.

Then I tried Sanear Audio Renderer from GitHub and it works without any problems in WASAPI exclusive mode with this DAC, including auto sample rate switching. No hiccups whatsoever. But I really would like to use the internal MPC Audio Renderer - can this be fixed? I am on win10 x64 1909, MPC x64 1.5.4.

[Aleksoid1978]

MPC Audio Renderer using event mode, Sanear - push. As you say, using foobar, problem with event mode. There is nothing to do. I don't have plan to implement push method.
And - i don't have such device and can't test/development to improvement.

[dezo]

Aleksoid1978: I understand, thank you anyway. I really like MPC-BE, so I will use Sanear for now.

[v0lt]

@Klaus1189
Please check MPCVideoRenderer-v0.4.0.1120_git2020.01.27-2e9d681 (https://yadi.sk/d/X0EVMKP4TcmnHQ).

[Klaus1189]

@Aleksoid1978 and @v0lt: Thank you for the fast fix and for the Nightly build. It works :)

[Aleksoid1978]

Aleksoid1978: I understand, thank you anyway. I really like MPC-BE, so I will use Sanear for now.

Try this test build(it's using push method) - https://yadi.sk/d/hnwH9elGw3szbQ

[dezo]

Wow, thanks. Its almost there.
Stuttering is gone in exclusive mode, but there are continuous cracks in audio (on all buffer size settings). For the sample rate auto switching I have to enable the CheckBox "Do not check format support", then it works. This DAC is using 32bit format (cannot be changed in Windows) and in foobar the default HW buffer size is 200ms so maybe the code just need a little bit of tweaking.

it's create log on Desktop. Playback some video 5-10 seconds and upload log for me.

[dezo]

Hi, log is attached, audio was the same - no stuttering but crackling. The source played was a short sample from movie with DTS 48KHz, should be visibile in a log.

[Aleksoid1978]

Don’t attach here, use any file hosting, like google drive or other.

[dezo]

Sorry about that, this should work then:

or on google drive:

[Aleksoid1978]

Here new build - https://yadi.sk/d/eMpxNwmqcPn8ZA
it's have more detail log.

[dezo]

Log with more details on google drive:

[Aleksoid1978]

Try this build - https://yadi.sk/d/z_NWcXTNY77AKg
with different "Device buffer".

[dezo]

And now it seems to be working! No more cracking.
I also tried different sample rates ranged from 44.1kHz up to 192kHz and so far so good. Only the "Do not check format support" must be enabled for the automatic sample rate to work, but that is just a cosmetic thing - considering this DAC is not very Windows friendly. Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.

[Aleksoid1978]

"Do not check format support" need for some device when it's driver can't say what formats it's supported.

[Aleksoid1978]

And now it seems to be working! No more cracking.

In rev. 5051 add selecting WASAPI method - Event/Push.

[Klaus1189]

Updated german translation (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NwBzp70DqbsN-NeKUsrorOgUedPyb_nu/view?usp=sharing) for new WASAPI method choice :)

Some suggestions for MPCVR:

First tab of properties window is called "VR Options". Somehow VR first makes me first think of Virtual Reality instead of video renderer. Why not just "Options"?

Is it correct that "Shader Video Processor" is only used when DXVA2/D3D11 video processor is not used for resizing? If so, I suggest to rename "Use for resizing" to something more clear like "Use this for resizing (instead of shader video processor)".

I still get DVD Copy Protect Fail on Windows 7 with latest build 1122.

I renamed "Settings" as in other filters in r1123.
Is it correct that "Shader Video Processor" is only used when DXVA2/D3D11 video processor is not used for resizing?
Not. A shader video processor can be used to convert YCbCr to RGB when the DXVA2 video processor does not work at all. Perhaps this is not the best name, but it is clear to us.
I still get DVD Copy Protect Fail on Windows 7 with latest build 1122.
The problem with low fps has been fixed. We did not fix other possible problems with DVD-Video protection. If there is a difference in operation compared to the EVR-CP, then please show the screenshots with an error.

[clsid]

I mean when DXVA2 is used for resize, then the upscaling/downscaling shader isn't used, right?

The DVD Copy Protect Fail error is the same as the error you would get if you disable the region code bypass in MPC-BE/HC and then play a DVD with different region than your DVD drive.
