[WiP] madVR support in MP1 (4 Viewers)

[kenwonders]

Still not sure what is going on, was playing TV for half an hour then the AtmoLight dropped out, then MP crashed as I quit. I had to sneak a quick config change to Ambibox inbetween songs, so we can do this:

Sorry for clogging thread

Nice Eurovision setup with the mirror ball, lol.

Emph

That is not a special feature for tonight. I'd blame 7 year old twins, but it belongs to the missus. The other effects I want to hook together with DMX so they can be staggered. I think I had a flashback.

Anyway yes madVR thread... v60 currently running, stable without atmolight.

Could you try with the latest AtmoLight version (1.18.0.0), was just officially released so should be in MediaPortal Extension Manager
If it does crash with that one please attach the logs and will take a look.

Maybe you should mod your pro-ject also

yep evr works, damn u mean tv guide

edit: that one i can reproduce on other clients with default hd skin
it acts like the guide osd gets opend in the backround of the video presentation if i want to open it directly
the screenshot with misplacement from old post is from what comes out if i open programm guide on the tv main menu

Good i can reproduce it with DefaultHD too

thanks for that, glad ya can ^^
through playing with the weard present queue on my little problem client i've noticed something odd:

if i turn on television first, without having played something else previously.
the present queue stays at 2 and never gets filed up properly, no wonder the presentation goes wrong



even found a second walkaround to push the present queue up as it should be, simply open the miniepg ^^ (or switch to the second tuner)


tada^^, queue full -frames happy -drops disappear

i then tried on other two machines both are clients (one igp, one nvidia), they act the same.

no drops but its there too - present queue 2 - on first solo tv run ^^ - should be 8
i can not note the bug on strong hardware that has no problems getting along with low queues. it only gets really bad on weak hardware


edit: retried with some files on first run, queue full everytime, it appears to only happend with live tv

cheers

Sadly it was with 1.18. I've just cleared logs and reconfigured and replicated. I would suspect there could be a consistent amount of time before failure.. Logs attached!

That is cool Though I have a Grado cartridge, so I expect it will add loads of buzzing

I have seen present queue of 2 a lot too, despite configured for 4. It doesn't cause bad for me but probably my hardware spec.

Thanks for the logs, looks like there were some internal render errors as well which might be causing some problems.
Noticed that at 12:05 when the AtmoLight error occured there's an Power event, did the machine enter sleep / idle mode by any chance?

Also it worked for 4 minutes or so but stopped after that right?

The machine was just running, no power event that I could see (but I'll go look in a minute to see which one and why)... there were no user actions when the lights stopped working. Cheers for the help Rick
