Serious subtitles problem

I would first like to thank Hoborg for the time and effort spent on this pack.

I am getting very bad frame rates and jittery audio playback which is totally out of sync once I enable Subtitles under Video/Subtitles or add DirectVobSub under Video post processing. There are no subtitles being displayed after I install SAF 3.41, so I guess I would have to manually enable Subtitles in order for them to work.

Heres the graphedit screenshot,

Audio/Video playback works perfectly if Subtitles are not enabled.

DVXA is working with no subtitles loaded (CPU usage <10%) and CPU usage hovers around ~50% when I enable subtitles. This should be quite normal from what I have gathered so far in this thread.

Settings selected during SAF 3.41 installation are as follows,

1) MKV Subtitles enabled (Option selected - Full HD)
2) DXVA Enabled (ATi 3200)

System Specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon 5000X2
Motherboard: Asus M3A78 PRO w/ HDMI
GPU: ATi Radeon 3200
OS: WinXP Pro w/ SP3
Video Driver: ATi Catalyst 8.5
Other settings: AMD C'n'Q disabled in BIOS, 512MB Shared memory assigned to GPU

I have tried Mediaportal 1.0 w/ SAF 3.3, Mediaportal 1.0 w/ latest SVN + SAF 3.4/3.41 but I get the same problem.

All settings under Mediaportal are configured as per Hoborg's instruction's in the first page of this thread.

Someone please shed some light on these issues, its driving me nuts!

Thanks in advance.

I don't think you need DirectVobSub anymore- you can get DXVA with subtitles- see this thread.

I didn't see any problem on your screenshots...

I am missing the "MPEG / AC3 Audio Decoder" option.

When I try to play any MKV I get this message:
"MKX
A decoder for the new track could not be found.
Track type: SRT/UTF-8"

This error have something to do with subtitles. Please, post video example.

I never have this pop up problem - can anybody post video example with this pop up?

I can tell you that this integration in MPC is heaven! Even zoom in on 21:9 movies with subtitles works like a charm.
DXVA makes your processors lazy at +/-10% on 1080p.

I still use SAF, which is great, but now i've found a few minor issues.

1) The newer version of PowerDVD8 which is mentioned on the pinned post is doing de-interlacing while the previous one did not. I prefer to have de-interlacing off.
2) I need AC3filter for encoding audio from wmv-hd to 5.1 via spdif. So i install AC3filter after SAF (other way round is not allowed in SAF) After that i set audio decoding to AC3filter and in postprocessing i add AC3filter. Is it possible to do this with SAF?

Hi hoborg!

I have problems installing SAF 3.40.
I have a fresh Windows XP SP3 install (Hungarian) and installed Haali splitter and Mediaportal 1.0 final, but I get two errors when trying to install SAF 3.40.
The first says I have not installed MediaPortal, the second says, that I have not installed PowerDVD flter (but I did it).
Then I tried SAF 3.30 and installed without any error.
After that I tried to upgrade to v3.40, but the "MediaPortal not installed" error still comes up.

Can You help me?

Hi. To use SAF 3.40 you need to install MP1.0 + latest SVN.

second is not error - are you sure you place "CLVsd.ax" ony your C:\ root?

Why isn't it possible to use SAF > 3.40 without MediaPortal? Are there some MP resources that SAF uses or?
Would be cool if you could use SAF without MediaPortal. I think a lot of people would love this great filter package even if they don't use MP.
