it seems that it solves the problem....I have to try better..but it seems that it work worse than v12 and v13...can I try v19 too?

Yes - v0019 is like v0013 with the latest crash fixes incorporated.

Hello Owlsroost,

I updated my Driver and tested my client 1. There is the same problem, stutter and dropped frames with HD 720p. On recordings there aren't stutter or dropped frames.

My GT240 shouldn't too slow!

If recordings and other video files play OK then it's nothing to do with the dshowhelper - the problem is somewhere earlier in the chain I suspect....

Hello Owlsroost,

I tested my first client intensive and my recordings stutters also. The stutter isn't so much like live-TV but it's there.
My signal is very well, a technician was here and set the level of the installation. Maybe my TV cards are shit.

If you have stutter on your Client side, try to use UNC paths in the Mediaportal setup.

Open the Configuration with the debugoption command.

C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Configuration.exe /debugoptions

Click on TV and go to Debugoptions - enable "Multi Seat Setup: use UNC paths" and also set the path to your timeshift- and recording folder (you have to enable network access to this folders on the client side). That helped me a lot in my case. No more stutter on client side, the channel changing times are much faster.

Does only the HD-channels stutter? Did you try to change the codecs? There are only a few codecs that works well with TV + Mediaportal.

On recordings there aren't stutter or dropped frames.

Already recorded TV material is just playbacked like any video file on your hard drive, there is no TVServer and TSReader involved in this process - so you probably get no stutter and dropped frames.

Stutter is also on SD, but not so heavy. With dshowhelper.dll V019 it runs good, but it stutters. I tested Coreavc 2.0 with and without CUDA, PDVD 10 Codec and Arcsoft. MP 1.02 ran very well!

Great Work Tony, today i've tried the v19 dll with MP rc3...and it works awesome.

Red line is always totally FLAT, just in 24p BD and 720p, 1080p mkv i get yellow and green lines slightly spiked..... almost no frame loss.

the interesting part is finally the powerdvd10 codec is working perfect, more flat lines in HDTV.

All these results are made with Catalyst 10.6.

As soon as possible i'll do a more long tests and post complete results.

I'm using UNC paths, without I can't watch TV (many artefacts and much more stutter).

Hi Owlsroost,
for now I didnt' have a crash. I upgraded the nvidia driver to 257 and all works better..
Only one thing the green and the yellow line aren't totally flat and sometimes I receive a microstutter.. I have attached a screen capture.

thx

Sorry offtopic.

I've tried to do this but it doesn't work.
What I did, on the server side i've shared the directory with recordings.
I also need to give the timeshift directory, but this in no longer there as a setting in the config on server side, so I let it empty.

Now live TV and recorded TV are not watchable, I recieve an error.
Am I missing something?

You have to share your Timeshift and Recordings folder (easy sharing under XP on server side and there you can put in a sharing name e.g. Timeshift and for Recordings the same). Under configuration /debugoptions on your client you have to put in under Multiseat UNC path: "\\192.168.1.150\Timeshift" (for Timeshift) and under Recordings: \\192.168.1.150\Recordings (for Recording).
The IP above is my IP, your IP is maybe another one.

Re: AW: Re: AW: MP1 EVR Presenter/dshowhelper community development

Thanks, but in the 1.1.0 version there is no setting any more for the timeshift folder, right?
