Problem with CoreAVC (2 Viewers)

[chrispi]

Hello,

I tried to use CoreAVC as my primary h264 codec but it only shows the upper left corner of the HDTV picture. PowerDVD and WinDVD codes are working fine.

I posted a message in the CoreAVC forum and they investigated this problem. They say that this problem is caused by MediaPortal. I tried the most current version of MP TV-Server and CoreAVC with the new tsfilter. H264 movies played with CoreAVC outside ModeiPortal work fine.

I know that CoreAVC is working for many MediaPortal users but unfortunately not for me. How can I solve the problem?

I also got a PM by another user who has the same problem.

Regards,
Christoph

Please find my configuration below. This PC is configured as a single-seat system and it has the described problem. I also tried my Apple MacPro (Quad Core) with NVidia graphic card and WinXP SP2 as a client and it also shows this problem. In both cases I used the new tsfilter.

I ave also attached a scrrenshot showing GraphEdit and MediaPortal wir the problem in the background.

i can confirm that issue. also occurs here on all Astra 19.2°E dvb-s2 channels.

it is a bug inside coreavc since it also occurs when you build a plain graph in graphedit and use VMR9 as video-renderer.

if you use overlay as video-renderer, all is fine.

::more here::


seems that it doesnt like something inside the broadcasted dvb-s2 stream. downloaded h.264 files are played without any issues.

How can I enable overlay? I thought it was removed a long time ago?

I was not able to find a hint in the forum.

I am using today's SVN.

Iloop was only refering to use overlay in the GraphEdit. Overlay is not possible inside MP.

Hello!

Are there any solutions in this case or do we have to wait for upcoming fixes?
I would like to use CoreAVC instead of the Cyberlink Codec because of its lower CPU-Usage.

we all have to wait until they release their next version.
until then we are stuck with cyberlink which actualy works

You can prove to unmark in coreavc configuration all except H264 and h264
For me working fine
