Re: AW: Codec issues - all round failure Hi mate, I solved all my problems with the guide I mentioned above. I'll have a god at the Stereo option but I'm pretty sure that the surround sound passes over fine! in fact, I tried a 5.1 ac3 sound file through WMP and it played fine to each correct channel. The codec options you...

MP1 MP2 Forced Subtitles DE
Nope, this is not normal, try to play the same file with GraphStudio, if you have it, does not stutter there, there is some misconfiguration in MP. You can try to play in MPC-HC player, or VLC. If it plays normally in those players, look at the config in MP.

I just ran into the same issue and thought I'd post my solution in case it would be of help to anyone else. PDVD11 has a keyboard shortcut to exit from the program when in Cinema mode.

I wil definite try this. Thanks for the tip guys! Now I remember why this didn't work. It's because I use the 100 Hz motion setting on my Samsung tv and it doesn't support 23.976. That's why I get the judder. Thanks anyway :)

MP1 MP2 Weird MPEG-2 errors DE
No errors reported via Filmerit. Also, would a codec issue prevent me from changing the codec in MP itself via MP \ Settings \ TV Setup and select the MPEG-2 codec. All other codecs are selectable and if I click on those, they give me a dropdown list of possible codecs. Clicking on MPEG-2 doesn't do anything at all. It is an...

1. Haali is not being actively developed anymore, I would suggest to use LAV instead. 2. Codec Packs always mess up the system, be aware 3. ffdshow can be told to accept or deny all kinds of streams, so it might be that (in postprocessing you add the ffdshow post processor I guess, that one belongs there). Try graphedit to show how...

The MP window retains focus and all other stuff is below. I do recall changing setting in MP config to always make on-top (as I wasn't sure what it did) so I might change that to see if it makes a difference. It's just like having a windowed MP makes all other actions useless. Can't even open a browser window.

MP1 MP2 Codec Issue? DE
Sorry for the late reply but I have been away and busy with work. Attached is a screen shot of the file playing with reclock for audio render (still no good!). I am using refresh rate changer also if that makes a difference.

Just a quick note; the latest version of LAV now comes with an Audio Configuration shortcut, so there is no need to set the pass thru option from an external application (such as Graphstudio). I also have no requirement for subtitle use, so as noted by technick, there may be better options if you need them :thx:

Hi again Gene Well I might be able to offer advice, but it really depends on what format you're converting from and what format you want to convert to (and by "format", I don't just mean TS - I mean the video and audio encoding formats). The thing is that the WDTV live specs say it supports the following audio formats: AC3 == Dolby...

My TV is a HD ready JVC LCD LT32S60 (one of the the best at its time, paid way too much for it :) ) When I started with Mediaportal I discovered quite soon that the output resolution and frame rate of the graphics card should match the TV specifications, otherwise much stutter or tearing would take place. Since then I use 720P@50fps...

In this case the problem is not that they get unregistered - they simply refuse to connect to anything unless the WinDVR software has been registered. Codecs are quite capable of checking the registry (or any other place where a software register key might be stored) so PDVD would be an exception if that does indeed work.
