I believe you can get EVR working on XP but appears a little bit of a pain. Is there any benefit of EVR over VMR9 ??

I have two systems, and one is Vista with EVR, the other is XP with EVR. It was not difficult at all to get EVR working on XP as I only needed .NET Framework 3 and above.

Seemingly, video quality is better with EVR but I can't confirm as I've never used VMR9 on my calibrated display (only ever used EVR).

I installed .net 3.0 and wasn't able to get EVR working.

I have .NET Framework 3.0 SP1 and .NET Framework 3.5 both installed, on XP Pro SP2. See the attached screenshot that shows EVR working just fine. I had no trouble whatsoever getting it running. I doubt it's relevant, but I'm using MPC Video Decoder.

Hmm, I have both of those installed too but I'm on SP3. I'll give it a shot again tonight when I'm home. Thanks.

Anyone got any evidence of this?? Anyone compared both VMR9 and EVR ?

I have evr installed and working, but for me (XP SP2) VMR9 is way better (Quality) and also provides HW-Acceleration, which evr on XP doesn't.

cheers

According to MPC-HC homepage you need to use the following renderer to get subs with dxva.

# Windows XP users, select VMR9 renderless
# Vista users, select EVR custom renderer

Have you tried XP with EVR and also got hw acceleration?
