Think both M$ and PDVD7\8 codecs take a lot of beating under a wide variety of viewing circumstances, with very little cpu difference and both recommended for dvr-ms\mpeg\ts playback without issues.
HD a different thing.
Sorry for going slightly off topic iosub, but it is relevant. |
Don't worry, I completly agree with your coment, Under Vista the best a lest problematic codec is M$ for SD material and PDvd for HD..

I changed to the MS decoders and DVD's play fine  .
I will try some other MPEG-2 decoders (e.g. NVidia) as well. Keep you posted.
The other issue is still there, i.e. some DVRMS files will not play?! (see MediaPortal_log)

can you play that DVRMS on another computer?? Because if is DR protected that's why MP can not play.. If is a DR protected file only MCE and WMP can play it... Thats another issue that this fix is not going to fix.. MP does not implemet DR (Digital Right Management)..
So my conclusion is that the patch does what it supouse to do, Play DRVMs (non Protected) under MP..

| I agree, this is a brilliant mode for watching 4:3 material on a widescreen TV, and does not tend to look distorted. |
Yes and the patch is simple and works great for me for the last 4 month
GEMX, I also add the source here..
