[Pending] - Late dynamic refreshrate changer or fps detection without mediainfo

Hello,

at the moment the current MP implementation of the dynamic refreshrate changer is based on the output of mediainfo. But this does not work for streams. (for example Onlinevideos).

I made a patch using some new functions owlroost implemented for me in V84 of his great directshowhelper.dll (THANKS owlroost).

So how does it work?
1.) check if the FPS is known by mediainfo
2.) if not - start a seperate thread which waits until the video is played
3.) get fps from running video and check if we need to change the fps according to your dynamic refreshrate settings
4.) wait again and recheck the fps (sometimes the first check is not correct - it depends on stream and type)

This patch is for the current MP SVN or MP 1.2 beta. To use it you also NEED owlroost directshowhelper.dll in ver. V84. You can get it from here: http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/g...ty-development-81148/index113.html#post749721 or use my provided binary package for MP 1.2 beta.

I can provide binaries for MP 1.2 beta - if anybody could tell me which SVN version it was.

Binary package added to 1st post.

Updated Binary and patch.

Added a 2time verify - some online stuff seems to be very hard to detect it. So it loops now at least for 2 times to verify that the refreshrate is constant and correct.

OK i'll try to make my code better. Some questions before i can start:
1.) i wasn't able to find something like IsGraphReady or another way to determine if the graph is started and playing? Can someone help with an idea?
2.) should i put a try and catch around the whole stuff in the thread functions? Or only while calling external stuff?

What is the problem here? Are there tv's which can display 24.000Hz and 23.976Hz? I thought all TVs can only display 24hz - so the nearest one would be 24hz and 25hz and i check for a difference smaller than 0.1.
