There is a problem with the D3D11 video processor. Disable NV12, P010/P016, YUY2 and Other.

Thanks.
Interesting. Can HEVC_MAIN10_422 output to YUY2 for compatibility or is it a dual 8-bit and 10-bit decoder (like AV1_PROFILE0)?

[clsid]

Yes, it's a dual encoder/decoder.

How is AMD and Intel with its new generations in this topic?
Intel Arc B580
AMD Radeon RX 9070 (XT)

[huhn]

VCE 4.0 got AV1 encode that's pretty much it.
some very old codecs where removed this is really not a problem.

that was RDNA 3 not 4 the official stuff i get for RDNA 4 is well nothing.
it has AI AVC encoder stuff and improved AVC encoding...

there is currently nothing that is needed/missing so yeah.

for more details a card is needed.

ohh and yes are supposedly not using a low end scaler for DXVA downscaling now.

the stuff nvidia and intel added is very cool but niche stuff.

[ryrynz]

I know it's only just been added, but any plan for a visual indication that Low Latency Audio mode is working with MPC Audio Renderer? Tnx

[Aleksoid1978]

Not planned.

[ryrynz]

Not planned.

Was thinking maybe something simple, like greying out the buffer value or locking to 10ms.


Commit 6ee02c3 - added information about "Low Latency" to the status when using this mode


Legend, thanks.

[huhn]

typical.
i ask if they could add correct chroma subsample scaling position. answer was also not planned and it was added nearly immediately.

keep up the amazing work.

H264 encoder is much better, sometimes even class leading. H265/AV1 seem to have not gained really anything or even lost quality...

H264 encoder is much better

Additional D3D11 decoders for HEVC with the Intel label could be used in 2022 (https://github.com/Aleksoid1978/MPC-BE/commit/0a27de8aff11561913f56ba2df52d28195c45582). This was before Microsoft published the specification.

Does MPC-BE contain a video decoder for ASV1 (ASUS V1) video? Peeking into the mpc-be64.exe, I do find that FourCC. But when I try to play an AVI file containing video encoded with that codec, MPC-BE seems to fall back to trying system-installed codecs.

I have ffdshow installed, and it crashed while decoding ASV1 was disabled; when I enabled it in the ffdshow decoder, MPC-BE played that video without issues. But if the MPC Video Decoder built into MPC-BE supports this format, I guess it should not even try to use ffdshow?

PS: Maybe ASV1 belongs to a group of decoders which is by default disabled (unchecked) in the MPC Video Decoder configuration?

[v0lt]

No.
Peeking into the mpc-be64.exe, I do find that FourCC.
I think you found the FFmpeg (codec_descriptors array) and MediaInfo entries.

I do not confirm installer issue. But I only use portable installations. Opening the latest installer "MPC-BE.1.8.3.138_git2025-04-03-02d0e9630.x64-installer.zip" has German pre-selected for me as default and installer steps are also in german.

English (United States) No other OS languages installed. Latest file tested was "MPC-BE.1.8.3.138_git2025-04-03-02d0e9630.x64-installer.zip"

Issue appeared sometime in recent days. Was not present last week.

When installer opens, you are promoted to select a language. It's English by default by me. But on the next screens, it is Russian.

I just selected English and then it is english for me in the further installer pages. Hmm...
