[WiP] madVR support in MP1 (60 Viewers)

[joecrow]

v292 All seems to be working well, no crashes or blackscreen etc. but I have found something stange and very interesting. It looks like Madvr is detecting all content at double the actual fps e.g. HD TV at 100fps and BD at 47.952, with the HDTV it then sets the display to 50hz, so no problem but with BD the display is set to 50hz (for .mkv) or 60hz (physical disc) which I doubt is optimal, strange. Very interesting though, if I play a phsical BD3D disk Madvr correctly detects it as 23.* fps and astoundingly plays it in 3D, wow a major improvement . Is that intended or have I somehow got something wrong/fortunate in the settings?????
I'm using a trial (still valid) version of DVDFab Passkey and BD player set to none, i.e. no BD-J

Maybe recent madVR version does that ? or a settings lol.
I will update HTPC with latest LAV and madVR but with older one, it seems to be correct FPS

Weird,
My HTPC has Lav is 69.0, Madvr 0.91.5, I have tried v292 on my Desktop (different ver. Madvr and hardware) and it seems to get the fps correctly. Will investigate further later/tomorrow.
I would post a screenshot but still just shows a blackscreen when a vid is playing.

@Crix1990 can you try this one after your update ?
Thanks.

Edit guys you can try too for regression

v292 Double fps problem. Sussed it after much reinstalls/updates(LAV, Madvr & grphics driver) to no effect it turned out that at some stage in the past I set the Deinterlacing mode to "Force" in addition to YADIF Software Deinterlacing. Deselecting either fixed it, see screen shots.
Also 3D playback from an inserted disc continues to work (with Madvr 0.91.5, not tried yet with 0.91.7)


UPDATE:-
Can now confirm Madvr 0.91.7 also plays 3D inserted disks in 3D.
One issue I have ran into with this is that sometimes MP comes up with an "Unable to Play-Index" error, well before Passkey has started/finished the decryption scan when Autoplay is set to Play, maybe a race condition there, once the scan is finished I can go to play disk and it works. As a result of that I decided to try and set Autoplay to "Ask" but found that Autoplay settings made in the Default Wide HD GUI are not effective, they can only be changed in MP Config, which I think is not correct and a 2nd issue.

v 293, since I installed this core, yesterday, I have had 2 MP crashes on resume from sleep (yesterday evening and thjis morning) both were after long sleeps, no problem after short sleeps. See attached logs. This is the first time I have seen this for ages, as you may remember when I reverted back to the std. 1.16pr I had no problems also v281, v289-v292 were OK for me in this respect.

This is weird, because the change has nothing to do on resume, it just enable fixdwm (for MP refresh rate) for try to know if it solve the issue for @Crix1990
So i think the original issue is always present and trigger randomly

 

[Sebastiii]

When looking the log, it can be the same issue @CypherMK about audio crash.
Does it happen when moving in MP and sound should be present ?

Maybe, though it does seem strange that it is not present for long periods then returns consistently (OK only 2 times so far) after a change.

Hmm, I will double check next time but I think it happens immediately the GUI becomes active and/or I make a navigation move. Worth noting that from memory with std 1.16pr sounds were not working with the DWHD skin and..... normally when the GUI becomes active after resume from sleep there is no navigation sound on the first move but it is there for the second. On a new MP start I do get a sound on the first move, not sure if that is signifcant but that is what I see/hear.

I will try to simulate a audio device remove (or disable) and see how MP react to that
