Just try both on your setup and compare. I'd say it depends on you and your equipment. I definitely hear the difference on my setup even without reencoding to ac3 by just using mpar with multichannel vs bitstreaming. Now I only use mpar with files without ac3, dts, etc.

I'm having trouble with this too. It's a load of garbage. I have no clue why the AUDIO_TS, VIDEO_TS DVD-style structures have helped others. They have no effect for me! MediaPortal just freezes whenever I try to play an IFO REGARDLESS of ANY settings.

Hey, sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm just wondering if this problem has resurfaced recently?
I'm running 1.6.0 with LAV 0.59.1 (from the Extension Installer) and also tried the latest LAV separately with no change.
Despite having LAV Video selected as every codec for every option in config, live TV is picking Microsoft...

Sorry for the slow reply.
I'm using MPC as the splitter, but afaik the actual TrueHD decoding is done by ffdshow. Think it's called MLP in their codec config page.

No, only SAF 6.14 WIP. Now that I've figured out that I have to use ReClock anyway to get proper sound from 5.1 AAC files, I think I'm gonna drop SAF again and go back to LAFV with ReClock. I have been thinking about start using MePo Renderer for a while, but IIRC, it doesn't work correctly in WinXP. I have been putting of the move to...

No, I don't have to do it with other codecs, only these Microsoft ones. Very strange. Had to do it in regedit to get rid of the registry entries adwell.
But thanks for the tip about the registry - it worked great! :)

The last working full set of codecs from PDVD9 can be found at your favourite torrent site by searching for "DXVA.rar", these need to go in the system32 folder and then registered using the regsvr32m command from the run menu.

Finally found way for me to get rid of stuttering with Purevideo Decoder:
From Purevideo settings I changed VMR Default -> VMR Vertical stretch and the stutter was gone.
VMR Pixel Adaptive stutters too.

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.

I couldn't get .srt files to work in mediaportal at all, hence I merged them into the mkv container to get them to work as detailed in my prev post. Embedding subtitles into mkv containers was the only way I could get subs to work in mediaportal. I'd always avoided mkv's before doing this, now I think they rock!

I have done some further tests here and, if you start a movie and make sure you press straight on the remote and that it says straight and not 5 channel stereo enhanced, now the surround should be working for movies as you have seen already.
Next go and play a tv channel and hit the sur. decode so it says pro logic ||. Now when you go...

It is the responsibility of tuner vendors to provide compatible software encoders with their products. For example, Hauppauge provides SoftMCE/SoftPVR, TerraTec provides TerraTec Home Cinema (which includes compatible encoders) etc. Also, the encoders are the property of their respective companies (ATI/AMD, CyberLink...

I would say there is no right or wrong codec. Use which ever works best for you. I never used to like the Microsoft DMO decoder for VC-1 as it stuttered more than Arcsoft but since SP1 and updating my ATI drivers it seems to be fine so I'm going to switch back to it.
Also its the only thing that works for me properly with Freeview HD...

Well, I tried it but it doesn't work. Appereantly, the MPV decoder won't connect to the FFDShow raw filter... the ffdshow raw filter does connect to other decoders, like the M$ MPEG2 decoder or powerdvd's decoder. Strange, since the MPV decoder outputs regular raw video (YV12..?) content.
Is this a known issue or a 'feature' ?

OK I think I have fixed this on my system by usinf SAF and CoreAVC Codec.

In the Core Codec configuration I then set the following for what I consider the best picture:

Force VMR AR Correction
everything else left as per the defaults.
