Post problems with Codecs or External Players here!

Hey all, I'm having a funky problem when using powerdvd9 as an external player for my bluray disks. This is how I currently have things set up. I have powerdvd9 set as an external player in moving pictures, and from there when I select the movie it opens powerdvd9 and begins playback fine. (I know this one is being bad) In...

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.

MP1 MP2 MP 1.3.0 and DX50 DE
Thanks, porky996t, I could resolve the issue: I removed ffdshow, shark and divx and reinstalled MP 1.3.0 with the LAV filters again. Now it works. Seems that there has been a conflict with too many codecs installed in the system.

I know this thread is a little old. But, I just wanted to say that it helped me with a problem I had after updating to 1.11.0 and new ATI drivers.

MP1 MP2 Low volume MP 1.3 and LAV filters. (1 Viewer) DE
If you are having trouble due to lack of options in lav audio filter, then ffdshow audio allows more customization with regards to mixing and output as well as supporting a profile based system. It is more complicated to set up. I think the first step is for you to list what audio formats your audio receiver can handle over spdif by...

Many thanks for all your help and explanation! Now I completely understand how this works. Since the whole windows/mp/codec/splitter/amp/etc involves so much variations, I was really not sure if I was doing something wrong. I recall, that I was able to use mute for DTS and AC3 stream, but not able to adjust volume. That really made me...

Same problem here, have tried all codec settings, even tried changing speaker settings as beatnut88 had but nothing works. RC 1.3 just refuses to play xvids (all other external players work fine).

Yes to both questions, basically (although I usually use LAV codecs these days). I have good reception (and I use Freeview HD, not satellite) so I can't comment on how well it copes with really bad signals, but I don't remember reading any comments that it has problems in that situation. Note that the GT530 and GT630 are basically...

MP1 MP2 Poor EVR rendering DE
dshowhelper (and MP generally, AFAIK) doesn't know/doesn't care about admin rights etc. (but it looks like 'desktop composition' behaves differently - or the settings are different - for the 'non root' user, for some reason). Maybe it virtualises the displays in some way ?

MP1 MP2 LAV vs ffdshow DE
You can also try LAV set to DXVA (copy back) as this is supposed to allow connection to post processing. Will increase cpu usage as data is 'is copied back' from GPU memory to CPU memory. ATI being more cpu intensive so than NV in this respect.
