Hi massimo, I have tried yadif and I didn't like it very much although it's the only deinterlacer that supports multithreaded function. I use ffdshow as a postprocessing filter with ATI MPEG2 decoder.

hmm sounds like to me you have a 16:10 monitor. I have a 16:10 monitor. For me I have that issue but its' no big deal because I use the zoom feature in media portal to cut a bit of it, so I don't have the bars. Thats what I think. :) Hope it helps.

Maybe you ask too much from your system, if you also send it out as 1080P, furthermore you should check the following: Make sure vertical sync is Always On (sometimes called Wait for vertical refresh or something) (check in your graphics card driver software setup) Make sure the the outgoing frequency matches your TV frequency...

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...

I can confirm that the DirectVobSub (VSFilter) 2.36 works like a charm using Swedish subtitles. I installed the non-unicode edition from the page mentioned.

Yes it is strange that MP runs into a snag when it tries to play your original MP4 file. Since MP can playback MKV files, it sort of "disguises" your MP4 until it's ready to be decoded.
