Scythe42's fixes for 1.4.0 (6 Viewers)

[elliottmc]

Tested this and there are two issues which will prevent me from using this build at the moment. My remote control is not useable with this build. It is an Hama Remote Control and in MP Config I set it up like this:
View attachment 127405
The problem is that every key press gets executed twice. Means if I press one time left it acts like double left in MP. (like that one button always gets skipped).
It seems like this is not releated to the remote itself but more to the "Use Centarea" setting. Because if I use the keyboard and this setting is enabled I also get double actions by e.g. press left on the keyboard.

That's strange. I didn't think anything had changed with remote handling in this branch. Please test current GIT master or my internal team builds to compare.

Would be a shame to not include this and then find that the reported problem is nothing to do with these fixes.

Will do. Are you to test it by enabling this setting and use your keyboard?

Current master is working fine:

That's strange. I didn't think anything had changed with remote handling in this branch. Please test current GIT master or my internal team builds to compare. Would be a shame to not include this and then find that the reported problem is nothing to do with these fixes.

Will do. Are you to test it by enabling this setting and use your keyboard?

Did you try simply to restart Windows? Briefly, I had an issue (with the next to latest build) where double-clicking the MediaPortal shortcut on my desktop started MePo, but got stuck while loading keymap.xml. Pressing the Green Button on my remote however, started MePo just fine. But after a reboot, this issue was gone, so I never reported it, mostly due to no logs.

I'll have a go, but let's also wait for @Scythe42 to comment.

 

[Scythe42]

Tested this and there are two issues which will prevent me from using this build at the moment. My remote control is not useable with this build. It is an Hama Remote Control and in MP Config I set it up like this:

That is a problem of the Hama MCE Remote. It sends three codes "Button Pressed", "Button Hold", "Button Released". The Button Release code is often the same as the Button Pressed Code. Three states are not handled by the plugin properly. I can reproduce Hama Remote issues with any MP so far with the right timing of pressing and releasing buttons. You can get a bit around it by some means. Hama MCE Remote can be a pain with MP.

Made no changes how remotes are handled or their specific code in the last few builds. In fact none at all I am aware of. Unless I did it by accident.

And underlying issue might show because MP reacts faster. That is always possible.

Need instructions how to reproduce. It should be easy to find it if you tell me what to configure on my system without having your specific remote available at the moment. As there are keyboard presses I assume that is possible.

Need instructions how to force this issue.

I have an idea where it might come from though... And it would be quick fix. Looks like MP is double processing your input message with this specific plugin. Once for a keypress and once for the remote.

IFC - not part of Core MP. Do not know how it actually integrated in the system. Given the nature what it does, I'd would not surprise me, if it needs an update.

 

[catavolt]

I.F.C. is known since ages to be a plugin giving a lot of problems in different areas...
Wondering that it is still used

 

[Scythe42]

Anyone else can reproduce the double input?

Need do do some tests with binaries as quickly as possible. Must be in GIT before the Midnight Express.

This qualifies as a show stopper, as it worked before.

- System Specs used : Workstation
- How many displays : 2
- What resolution does each display use : D1: DVI 1920x1080 / D2 : VGA 1680x1050
- More than one GPU used : No
- How are displays connected : D1 : DVI / D2 : VGA
- How are they positioned : D1 : Left / D2 : Right
- Which one is the primary one : D1
- On which do you start MP : D2 (set in config)
- Fullscreen / Windowed : Fullscreen
- Where is the taskkbar positioned of Windows : D1 Left (Also Right, but it's trick)
- Skin Used : DefaultWide
- Test Build Version : MP1.3 FINAL
Duplicate from last post :

I have made video capture with phone, also made GPU log
no software is open, except MP and Windows + GPU-z (+ all softwares launched with Windows)
during the video, I have touched absolutely nothing!

small stuttering : look video

link of video : https://www.dropbox.com/s/oc4yz3y58891esm/VID_20130430_125651.3gp
GPU Graph : View attachment 127401

So everything fine, or issue? Same as 1.3.0? Cannot follow your here. When I see logs I assume issues, But 1.3.0 Final? I am confused.

I.F.C. is known since ages to be a plugin giving a lot of problems in different areas...
Wondering that it is still used

One reason why it gives issues is undepowered HW that is used for it - it requires lot of extra power since it copies the data from GPU to RAM (LAV could be doing this already with CUVID and DXVA2 copy back so there will be two extra texture copys, which is something nice when you have 1920x1080 @ 50 fps) and then has to analyze the textures with CPU.

We should offer some interface for plugins to provide some pixel shareds for the analysis work. It should be pretty easy to write a pixel shader that goes thru the video texture and tells what "scanline" is the first one that contains image content and that would reduce the GPU to RAM trafic to almost to zero that such plugins cause.

Havent used I.F.C. myself, so cannot say if there is some other issues as well than the high performance requirements.
