Yep I understand why you wait to tell MCE to do what it does. I may end up there also, but am happy to let it run for a while to sort out The most compressed format v The best quality. Sparky

I meant in terms of licensing... but yes, you're right - it's not open source. I tend to agree with hwahrmann's comment in the linked thread (lot of effort to change - is it worth investing that effort etc.).

Re: AW: Solved: Blu-Ray Handler - configuration issues You need Gabests MPEG Splitter. Its installed either by downloading the Standalone filters from MPC-HC and registering them yourself, installing SAF v5, or by installing HD Pack 2.6 (or later). Then you have to set .bdmv (i think) .m2ts as a video extension in MediaPortal config.

BASS with ASIO is unstable on my machine. If I try and change an audio track MP bombs out. Plus it stutters when moving around the menus when playing music, so BASS seems to be taking much more CPU load than foobar. With foobar running and watching a pictures slide show all the transitions are smooth (The zooming and scolling ones)...

Just got to know that probably the RGB32 option in LAV the Nvidia video color space option has the same affect as i already recognized too. Nvidia video color space seems to affect the way EVR renders/handles color space. If you choose limited for this option EVR renders with 16-235. Otherwise it used 0-255 or if turned of it uses...

Here is something to chew on: Most of my x264 movies (720/1080p) play fine at their supposed 24fps, but some, about 10%, starts to stutter and drop frames (checked with Ctrl+1), especially with fast moving scenes. Now, when I turn off hw acc the movie plays perfect again (tested with spiderman 2.1/720p)! I guess with some movies...

I have the same issue as you, with Yamaha rx-v765 and LG PK760 TV. HDMI out from an i7 3770k PC. When i set the Audio out to TV or TV+AMP i got only Dolby Digital, but when i set it to AMP i got Dolby Digital, DTS Audio and Dolby Digital Plus. Only if i turn the TV off then it shows TrueHD and DTS-MA. I can't solve this problem.

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...

The recent versions of LAV video decoder support DXVA, so that's another alternative to FFDShow DXVA. If you press shift+1 (!) on the keyboard when video is playing it will display the render stats screen - it can't tell you if DXVA is in use, but it does list the codecs in use so you can check if they are what you expect....
