Codecs, External Players (62 Viewers)

Post problems with Codecs or External Players here!

Here's my current status: - PowerDVD 7.3 Ultra - No go (No picture) - Nvidia - No go (No sound) - MPA - Works I'm feeding my Onkyo 605 amp via coax S/PDIF. Filemerit doesn't report any errors, weird.

Unfortunately this is not the problem. Original shows a very small picture whilst Normal enlarges the picture but a large (albeit smaller) border is still visible all around... As I said, this problem only exists with Discovery channels among others...? BBC/Chanel4/ITV/Five/ etc are all fine in Original as well as Normal (i.e...

MP1 MP2 No sound from Divx? DE
Check your codecs with filmerit in my sig. Divx would normally be used for this and gives a better picture, so either install this and disable divx in ffdshow or, makes sure FFDShow Tryouts is enabled for audio and video.

Maybe your CPU cant handle them? An E2140 is pretty fast but those 1080p files are pretty demanding. Also it looks like you are using on-board sound which sucks up more CPU cycles.

The same for me - I have same chipset. As I have learned, x264 is not H264. The x264 does not fulfill some profile and thus it can't be decoded by the help of graphics card. The question is how to configure the decoder filters/MP to accelerate H264 stuff by PDVD and use SW decoder like CoreAVC for x264.

That's exactly what I needed, thanks. I did do searches before asking but for some reason I didn't come across that thread. It's also lead me to an article on FFDShow video post processing so my channels now look fantastic on my 109" screen! Thanks again!

First mistake was installing any codec pack. A better idea would have been to install just Haali Media Splitter (for mkv), a video decoder and a filter that can display the subtitles (ffdshow can do both). You can still try to add Vobsub (non autoloading version) or ffdshow raw video filter to MediaPortal Configuration/Movies/Post...

Thanks, I think I got it. I played around with ffdshow settings and it turns out that I can get even better picture by using "luminance level fix" and "full range" under picture properties.
