I finally got the PJ switching from SDR profile to HDR profile and back using Jvccontrol (a command line utility that sends a 2 digit remote control code to the PJ via network).

My HDR profile is SDR BT.2020 Power Gamma 2.4 calibrated (to use the madVR Tone Mapping)

Do I need to do that?

Sorry: I was editing my previous post and you were quoting it...

I created a profile called "enabled", and another called "disabled". I'm still not getting a green check mark.

I've been getting a bright, white strobe light effect with some older, dvd era content when I have smooth motion on. If I turn smooth motion off, it immediately stops. Is this a known issue? Can anything be done about it? Thanks for the help.

Do I need to do that?
if your PJ works correctly report bt 2020 should set it into wide gamut mode so try it.

Could you please help me confirm whether my settings in the "calibration" category are correct or not for SDR and HDR playback?
I will write what might be relevant in my setup.
Display: LG G4 OLED
GPU: RTX 2080
OS: Windows 11 24H2
Software: MPC-HC 2.3.9, latest madVR test build and NVIDIA drivers

The goal is to send the unaltered HDR data to the display.
Naturally, I enabled "passthrough HDR to display" and "send HDR metadata to the display" .
It's worth noting the G4 has excellent factory calibration so I do not want madVR to interfere with that in any way in SDR or HDR.

In "calibration" I selected:
HDR
- this display is already calibrated
- disable GPU gamma ramps
- the display is calibrated to the following primaries / gamut: BT.2020
- the display is calibrated to the following transfer function / gamma: pure power curve 2.20
- report BT.2020 to display (Nvidia only)
This is for Windows HDR set to Off

SDR
- this display is already calibrated
- disable GPU gamma ramps
- the display is calibrated to the following primaries / gamut: BT.709
- the display is calibrated to the following transfer function / gamma: pure power curve 2.20
- report BT.2020 to display (Nvidia only)


Thank you!

madVR will not do anything by default in terms of calibration.
but it is technically impossible to send unaltered data...

you should never believe such stuff ever.

@GoldenSW You don't have to use different profiles for HDR and SDR, the TV will recognize the source automatically. Here is my settings for G4 (see the attachment).

Turn every enhancement stuffs off on the TV and set the color space to auto detect. Don't use Windows HDR, that's correct.

If you are planning to use gamma 2.2, set the TV to 2.2 also, but for a dark viewing conditions 2.4 (BT.1886 on the TV) is the correct one.

You should also use madvr's dynamic tone mapping if you are planning to watch 4000 nits movies. LG's tone mapping algorithm only works up to about ~1000 nits. I mean the next step would be 2000 nits, and there the highlights are overexposed with LG's algorithm. It's easy to see on test videos.

(On Windows 11 you must use the latest beta version.)

Looks like it is a problem with 25fps films. Flashing with smooth motion on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi guys!

Can you please help me with the steps to accomplish an aspect ratio changing like this?

https://ibb.co/02XQWcx


I would like to have it done this way so that even at 16:9 it switches my JVC to Mode D anamorphic but I am having a hard time figuring this out from that screenshot I found.



Thanks!!

Have a look at the tips.txt file that comes with madVR

In my older version of tips.txt its saying srcAR contains the aspect ratio, so try changing AR to srcAR in your script

edit: OP says "AR, uncroppedAR, encodedAR" so I guess those ones should be tried first

I was thinking of giving madVR a try after using MPCVR for quite some time now. Does the newest version cope with the latest Windows 11 and NVidia drivers? Seems like people are having quite a few problems.

You do need to use specific options for frames presented in advanced and the when and how shall the GPU be flushed.

This is a longshot, I'm building a madVR machine as a passthrough from my zidoo player. I have CIH motorized screen masking using somfy shade motors with a 2:35 screen. I want to try and automate the masking based on video aspect ratio but not having any luck finding a way to do it. Has anyone done this in thier setup?

I'm losing my mind trying to figure this out. Why does my TV randomly flash black (as if it's trying to change the refresh rate) when I'm watching a video in full-screen mode with madVR? This seems guaranteed to happen if I move the mouse in a way that brings up the user interface of my player (MPC-BE). And no, I don't have madVR configured to change into any special mode (e.g., exclusive) when I go full-screen with it.

The weird thing is how this doesn't happen when G-SYNC is on, but it will if I set MPC-BE to Fixed Refresh under NVIDIA CP. (For some reason, madVR activates G-SYNC unlike other renderers.)

I'm avoiding madVR for now and using the MPC Video Renderer...

true full screen exclusive forces a resync there no other way this can work only not using FSE is fixing that.
