    I am looking into implementing an EVR custom presenter to allow for subtitles without the need to load DirectVobSub. No idea when I'll have something ready though as I've only just started.

    That'd be great except I'm on XP :(

    I believe you can get EVR working on XP but appears a little bit of a pain. Is there any benefit of EVR over VMR9 ??

    I have two systems, and one is Vista with EVR, the other is XP with EVR. It was not difficult at all to get EVR working on XP as I only needed .NET Framework 3 and above.

    Seemingly, video quality is better with EVR but I can't confirm as I've never used VMR9 on my calibrated display (only ever used EVR).

    I installed .net 3.0 and wasn't able to get EVR working.

    I have .NET Framework 3.0 SP1 and .NET Framework 3.5 both installed, on XP Pro SP2. See the attached screenshot that shows EVR working just fine. I had no trouble whatsoever getting it running. I doubt it's relevant, but I'm using MPC Video Decoder.

    Hmm, I have both of those installed too but I'm on SP3. I'll give it a shot again tonight when I'm home. Thanks.

    I have evr installed and working, but for me (XP SP2) VMR9 is way better (Quality) and also provides HW-Acceleration, which evr on XP doesn't.

    cheers

    According to MPC-HC homepage you need to use the following renderer to get subs with dxva.

    # Windows XP users, select VMR9 renderless
    # Vista users, select EVR custom renderer

    Have you tried XP with EVR and also got hw acceleration?
