Hi everyone,
sorry I know this is a *little* off topic and I'm new on this forum (long-time lurker) but today a very strange thing happened.
I was using my Hollywood+ mpeg decoder card for playback on my tv of a DVD I'd just made.
I was actualy testing out loading a dvd iso with Daemon tools.
Anyway, I tried to seek on the 'dvd' and my PC crashed (windows2000sp2... no bluescreen enabled so I can't tell you the error)
I reboot, and this is where the odd avisynth occurance starts.
I'm doing the usual video editing stuff and I notice that my avisynth scripts aren't working in media player but they seem fine in virtualdub. It's all a bit odd.
So, I load the avisynth script (which is doing a basic MPEG2DEC load of a dvd2avi project) into ZoomPlayer and click Filter Properties.
Lo and behold, I am amazed to read:
"HPlus YUV Video Renderer"
O.o
So I turn on my TV and there it is... my avisynth is playing on my tv.
If anyone has fiddled with the program divxplus (which allows you to buggily play avi files through the H+) the effect was much like that - the picture was only taking up half of the screen and it was upside down.
Weird.
What's more is that unlike with the divxplus program, I wasn't dropping any frames. Everything was running smooth as silk on my little duron 800. A testement to the efficiency of the MPEG2DEC.dll and avisynth, methinks ^_^
I have absolutely no idea how this has actually happened, but it's quite interesting. If anyone has any thoughts on how this could be happening, I'd be interested to hear them.
I haven't actually fixed the problem so if anyone wants me to look up registry settings or anything like that I can, but I'm not very knowledgable about such thing.
^^;;;
