Codec Issue? (1 Viewer)

[clarkey2r]

clarkey2r - you have groups of 'Scheduling sample from the past' lines in the evr.log - that's usually a sign of something stealing CPU/GPU time occasionally (or data not arriving in time).

It means the video processing has got delayed, so that the decoded frames are too late by the time they reach the renderer - and have to be discarded, causing the stutter.

Interesting.... I don't know what can be stealing cpu or gpu, do you? CPU reports in task manager less than 40% utilization.

Attached are the frame rate screen shots!

I double checked the drivers were the most up to date also last night to no avail

I think you're just going to have to try disabling things like third party MP plugins one at a time until you find what's causing the problem...

Also try playing the file from a local disk if you can, in case it's a networking issue.

I have a strange feeling that it's a networking issue... I created another thread about stuttering with live HD channels, I didn't really get much help as i was using mdapi but I have just tried again with out it and I get similar results, see log attached!

Yes, the log doesn't look very pretty......

The TV issue might be network related but playing the MKV locally was still an issue.

You said that 1080p mkv played OK - can you post screen shots/logs for one of those, for comparison ?

I'd also run MP in windowed mode and do some 'connect to remote graph' snooping with GraphStudio - to check if it's builiding the same graph/using DXVA etc in the 720p/1080p situations.

Those video's could have been corrupted, might be worth running either through handbrake or freemake video converter (cuda if nvidia gpu) and see if problem solved.

 

[clarkey2r]

Files plays fine in media player! Attached is the graph studio print screen.

EDIT : Added 1080p screenshots!

Wonder if that could be the mpc audio filter, you could try nevcariels lav filter instead, media player will use MS audio codec for playback, that may be why its works there.
