[fixed] Switching TV channel from AC3 to MPEG audio fails (1 Viewer)

[tourettes]

Could somebody provide some logs with SVN >=25151 ? Problem could be solved by this one.

I'm absolutly not able to reproduce the issue with 252xx and I would avoid to revert SVN on main HTPC.

Problem seems occuring only with MS-DTV "Video"..?!?! ( this is an evidence when you change audio...), and it's not the same related at the beginning of this thread (Already solved).
I suppose in some ( or all ) cases ( why ? ) the M$ filter need to be disconnected/reconnected.

Indeed it seems that the latest graph building changes are causing MS DTV-DVD video decoder to hang on audio stream type change. Why is that? It was not the case earlier and I'm pretty sure that graph connections were renewed for the video part only if the video stream type was changed. Here's the old code related to video pin reconnection:

            switch (iChangedMediaTypes)
            {
              case 1: // audio changed
                Log.Info("Reconnecting audio pin of tsreader filter.");
                ReConnectPin("Audio");
                break;
              case 2: // video changed
                Log.Info("Reconnecting video pin of tsreader filter.");
                ReConnectPin("Video");
                break;
              case 3: // both changed
                Log.Info("Reconnecting audio pin of tsreader filter.");
                ReConnectPin("Audio");
                Log.Info("Reconnecting video pin of tsreader filter.");
                ReConnectPin("Video");
                break;
            }

Following hack seems to do the trick... but I don't like it

1) if user has configured some other than MS video decoder and MS decoder is used as DS fail back codec the issue is still available
2) doesn't fix any other codecs than MS video decoder caused issue

Is it bad to always reconnect video and audio with every codec?

@rksmith
it coasts a lot of speed while changing channel

 

[tourettes]

New patch, should solve the issue with MS decoder. Causes a pause with audio stream type change.

 

[riksmith]

Patch works here.

here too - only bad that we need a special fix for MS DTV Codec? Isn't there a general way to detect if a codec needs a reconnect or not?

No, since codec doesn't tell it to us But hopefully there is something that is done wrong on MP side that causes the issue in first place. Manfred is currently looking into it since he knows the current graph building code best.
