Re: AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

Is it possible that since I installed new SAF v.6.0.4 that it takes about 10seconds til a movie starts?
It seems that since this update that seems to happen...anyone?

Try to open your video in Graphstudio or MPC-HC.

AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

I tried in MPC-HC, and it takes also very long to open! 5-10 seconds approx

a 3gb mkv takes nearly same time as a 35gb file

sometimes it doenst take so long but sometimes very long

Why don't you use the lav video decoder for all video? I can play everything with it!

Yes, LAV video decoder is good, but i am not a MediaPortal user, and i need:

-subtitles support
-audio/subtitles stream switching
-DXVA + subtitles
-DVD playback

My HTPC is based on NPVR and right now only FFDshow video decoder can do it.

I tried in MPC-HC, and it takes also very long to open! 5-10 seconds approx

Your video is on local source or network?
If local - can you create a sample in MKV merge and share it?

AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

i got all my vids from network NAS Storage.
The nas delivers around 80mb/s readspeed
When i place the files on local harddisk of htpc it opens faster!

BUT!

when i open any movie file which is on network drive with vlc player it opens up immediately.
Same for 35gb files or whatever size - vlc open immediately!

before i bought the nas i had a harddisk attached to router which had a max of 5mb/s read and it opened fast also in MP!
I installed new SAF package because my DTS/DTS-MSTR audio didnt work (when i tested the sound about 2months ago it worked - i yesterday had time to set up MP and tried but sound didnt work then so i installed new SAF, which gave me dts and dts mstr back but now I got this problem!)
I dont know which saf version i used before - 6.x

I now tried Windows Mediaplayer in Windows 7 ....same here takes ages! Only thing which opens immediately is VLC

Im using HD2000 integrated cpu graphics

Well, search MePo threads, thare was more similar reports and possible solution.
VLC is not DirectShow based player, it is working in different way.

You can try SAF5, it is based on Haali. But is it outdated now.

AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

curious thing is ...i tried to play some samples now.
Some take very long to start over network
and some dont start in GraphStudio , error "cannot open file"
I copied this file to hd on htpc - then it works without problems!
This file also open immediately over network with vlc but takes VERY long with MPC.

it cannot be a network problem otherwise VLC wouldnt open so fast

I think problem is the lav splitter or whaterver because before I installed the brand new SAF it worked.
I also ahve powerdvd 11 ultra on htpc and it opens this particular nearly as fast as VLC! (powerdvd opens all files over network immediately!)
I dont get this! .....
