MP2 - V2.1 [MP2-556] Font rendering issues with Intel HD chipsets on Windows 10 (1 Viewer)

[morpheus_xx]

Now they are gone in default as before.

Interesting:
Starting in default skin -> switching to BV gives me a correct font rendering:

Closing MP once and restart: the issue appears again

 

[morpheus_xx]

And then vice versa:
once BV font is corrupted -> switch to default -> still font corruptions
then restart MP -> font ok

A nasty one but it looks as if we can't do anything against it...

@Lehmden I have attached a build to test the recent changes to texture rendering. For me the font issue is (nearly) gone with this fix. Can you test if it works for you as well?

 

[Sebastiii]

Did you update a branch somewhere ?

 

[morpheus_xx]

The change is here: https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/commits/EXP_FixTexturePositions.

It removed some manual offset calculations and moved it into vertexbuffer handling

Looks as if this nasty one is solved. Maybe I'm wrong but it looks as if not even those "dots" are gone but the text overall is more sharp and clear... Good work.

After trying the "radio recordings" build the patch did not do it any longer. Back to weekly and now it is working again... But it did not solve the issue completely, I fear. As long as the text is static all is fine. But when the text starts scrolling those "dots" re- appear again, not only on the scrolling text but also on the static one. So maybe we need to dig deeper a bit...

Hi.

Has this been resolved or so the dots still appear in 2.1 at your side?

Hi HTPCSourcer,

after the MP 2.1 install there are still weird dots over the normal font with the standard skin. This is on my media server (see system specs) with latest Intel HD graphics driver.


Cheers
