MP 1.3.x dshowhelper development (5 Viewers)

[Owlsroost]

v684 added to first page - early/late DWM initialisation option added (default is early), plus a couple of experiments (mostly for 24 Hz display refresh situations) which can be turned off if desired. Scheduler thread locking is 'hard'.

Okay, i've got a bit of a weird issue. I'ts been happening for a while now, but i didn't pay much attention to it, but after a while it gets a bit annoying.

I don't know where my problem comes from and i'm hoping this is the right place

When i've watched a movie or serie (whatever) and after that i'm going to watch live tv it stutters. When i close down MePo and start it up it runs just fine again.
Does uploading my logs make any difference?

I'm using 683 btw .

Yes, logs please, and also a screen capture of the render stats screen when it's stuttering.

Does it do this every time or just occasionally ?

Hi! I'm using v.684 with MP1.3RC because the original dshowhelper file causes my 24hz and 50hz material to stutter really bad. I'm using Powerstrip custom resolution next to Dynamic Refresh Rate. I've created 23/24/50 and 59.94hz profiles stores in *.cmd files.

With the original dshowhelper, if I open MP for the first time, any 23/24 or 50hz materials stutter really bad. The only workaround i found was to play a 59.94 material ( Tv for example). Let it play for 5 sec, and stop it. After this manipulation, I can play any 23/24 or 50hz material perfectly. Until I restart MP.

Now that I use v.684 of dshowhelper I don't have this problem anymore. Sometimes, it occures for the first 24hz files I play but pushing stop button and replay the files, make the files playing fine. The new problem I have now is, when I play a bunch a video in the same folder for example. If I skip the video for the next one, sometimes (if not always) I get a black screen with the video I wanted to skip continues to play (audio only). The only way to quit is to kill MP.

thanks a lot for your work, i'll post my logs soon.

UPDATE: Here's my logz for both of my problems.


Thanks a lot!

The forum doesn't notify edited posts, so I hadn't seen until today that you added the logs - I'll take a look soon....

I have upgraded to 1.30 final since two days. Now when i'm using LAV i'm experiencing some weirdness. Sometimes the image runs and I have to restart MePo. Sometimes the artifacts take control over my image and only thing i can do is restart MePo.

So, which version is in 1.30 and have you've heard this before? Tonight i'll reproduce and post my logs (in a new reply )

It's a modified version of the one in 1.2.3

Have you tried updating LAV ? (the version installed by 1.3.0 is 0.55.2 - the latest version is 0.55.3)

no i haven't yet, i've installed the version supplied with 1.3.0 final, which is i believe 0.55.2.

I'll install tonight and will replace the dshowfilter with the latest one and see if that works better. Tnx!
