[QUOTE="doclorenzo, post: 976646, member: 98818"] I recently updated SAF to 6.19 and experienced black/green (black in MP, green in mpc-hc) screen when playing h.264 media. This happened in mediaportal, wmp and mpc-hc. Mediaportal codec settings were not changed after updating, they were still like suggested in the first post. I have no idea how I solved it since I tried so many different things like reinstalling saf, uninstalling saf, installing new amd gpu drivers. At some point it was magically solved :-). Now I have the same problem after upgrading MP to 1.3 and SAF to 6.2. When using ffdshow dxva as h.264 codec in mediaportal only a black screen is shown and video freezes, when I exit MP an error is shown "mediaportal has stopped working" - this is not shown until I exit MP! When using LAVF as h.264 codec and enabling dxva in LAVF green video is show, but playback continues. When DXVA is disabled it works fine. So.. it all comes down to dxva it seems - but why? Another question regarding audio however: recommended settings are lavf audio even for aac, but this way I only get 2 channel output for 5.1 channel aac - what am I doing wrong (works for dts and dd5.1)?
