1080i material not deinterlacing under 1.0.1.0 (1 Viewer)

[globaldonkey]

It's the HT overclock that makes the difference, changing the core doesn't seem to do a lot.

That makes more sense then.

Interesting. I was happily watching 1080i, and did a bit of "back-up" and play (while recording the program) and the playback turned nasty. Looked jerky, with a bit of sound out-of-sync. Shift-1 showed FPS of 34, and dropped frames.

I stopped TV, then chose the same channel again, and all was well. Shakes head...

Hi all,

I seem to have the interlace problem with 1080i feeds, seems that tsreader is picking up that the feed as interlaced, then later stating it is not, for example: -

I'm using MP 1.0.2 with on board 9400 with XP, and no its not a performance issue because my CPU never goes above 30% and is normally between 5-10 % when playing the recordings.

The same recording that is interlaced in MP works fine in PowerDVD and Graphedit with HW BOB deinterlacing on, is there a way to force VMR9 settings?

I would like to set the 'Mode in use' to 'BOB' just like the attached screen shot taken from graphedit, this is not the mode fallback option in MP config.

FYI

HD3200/HT2.0 CPU/XP - Poor deinterlacing 1080i MP 1.0.1/1.0.2 (ok with MP1.0 Final) Dropped frames, fps only 35
Upgraded to HD4670 - Now using MP 1.1 Alpha, no problems

My verdict - HD3200 (with low HT 1000Mhz ie dual core cpu) is too underpowered for 1080i in XP on anything after MP 1.0 Final

That information is not used for anything else than logging (and yes, it doesn't detect the stream content correctly in the most of the cases, but as it is currently only for logging it is not on high priority to be fixed).

Do you know of a way to set the VMR9 'Mode in use'?

Same problem here. MP 1.0 Final and HD3450 works 100% with 1080i. Not newer versions.

So, will buying a HD4670 or better solve this..?

 

[kiwijunglist]

HD3450 is slightly different because it doesn't use shared memory.
However upgrade may fix your problem.
You can try overclock the HD3450 see if that changes it
If performance improves with overclock then you know the video card is the problem

Thanks for your reply.
Tried oc but didn't improve...

Gonna install MP 1.0 Final again and see if it still works.

 

[kiwijunglist]

yeah i'd say that 3450 is similar to HD3200 + HT3, some people are unhappy with >MP1.0Final with HD3200 even with HT3. XP users seem to have more problem than vista. Not sure why, you'd think that vista being more resource hungry would run slower.
