Re: SAF v5.00 experimental (based on FFDShow DXVA decoder)

Another SAF SVN out.

-haali was completly removed and replaced by MPC-HC splitters

Sorry for this...I have to uninstall the previous version or simply install the new one?

Thanks in advance!

Hi hoborg!

Thanks for your reply!

@Helios61:
If you video play in Graphstudio using SAF 5, then problem lies in player.

I know this, but it's working fine with SAF 4.0 and maybe you have heard abot other users with a similar issue!

EDIT:
You have lots of errors in "error.log" file, check them yourself.

These are known errors with HTPC Info Plugin, i have fogotten to disable this Plugin for creating logs! Sorry for that, but it makes no difference -> Playback doesn't work with SAF 5.0!

The rule are simple - if video play in Graphstudio, SAF doing its work correctly.

I know and because it isn't working with newest SAF5.0 from today too and other users have also this issue, i have written a bug-report -> Link! I hope, this issue will be fixed soon!

Best regards

Helios

Also with this latest SVN I'm having problems with some VC-1 files. Playback is all blocky and stuttering, but when I disable VC-1 DXVA in ffdshow DXVA decoder it's all fine. But then it uses WMV codecs which makes it not use DXVA as it seems... what can I do to still have DXVA?

You have some posibilities:
-try different GPU drivers
-reencode VC-1 to h.264
-get ATI GPU

Hoborg, on the first page of the thread, has anything changed for codec setup in MePo config?

ie: PDVD10 over 9 where applicable? DVD Codecs, FFDShow or use MS?

Re: SAF v5.00 experimental (based on FFDShow DXVA decoder)

I've got RC2 installed and SAF 5, and everything seems to be working ok, just have one annoyance... Before when I was using 1.1 Beta and SAF 4, I had the default zoom mode set for videos as stretch, and the videos took up the whole screen, edge to edge. Now with RC2 and SAF 5, even though stretch is set, the video still has the letterbox black bars top and bottom. I tried non-linear stretch and the bars got bigger.

Im not sure if this is an issue with one of the codecs from SAF (I am using it as per the screenshots on the frontpage, but using PDVD10 instead of PDVD9 for mpeg2) or an issue with media portal itself, but does anyone know how to stretch the videos to full screen again?

Thanks

i have the same problem with SAF 5 + MP RC2. Can anybody help us?

Setup on first page is correct.

Try to disable resize in FFDshow Video setting - looks like it doesnot working correctly for MePo (No problem in GB-PVR).

There is screenshots on first page, you didnt read them?

Re: SAF v5.00 experimental (based on FFDShow DXVA decoder)

Of course i read them but i cant find anywhere the answer which Decoder is better.
In the Moment i think that ffd Show is for free and for cyberlink you have Pay?
Is this the only difference?
