Hi people,

I've just bought a htpc to hook up to my sony 40" and at first i was really dissapointed at the mkv 720p and 1080p playback, i almost bought those tvix stand alone players , but luckily there's the internet (thanks to bit-tech.net)

here is my set up

Proc : AMD X2 5000+
Mobo : Gigabyte GA-MA78GM
RAM : Apogee 2 GB running at DDR 800, i put 512 MB for the display
OS : Windows XP SP3

First UNINSTALL ALL your codec and download CCCP

Please overwrite the original mpc-hc that came with the codec with this one http://www.xvidvideo.ru/media-player-class...cinema-x86-x64/ (CREDIT & THANKS TO FARIZ)

the old version is very picky when enabling dxva support

Install the codec , just click next untill finish, you dont need to do any changes here.

Attached Image

Untick the H.264/AVC

Attached Image

Attached Image

Open the Windows Media Player Classic Home Entertainment , It should be at Start - Program - Combined Community Codec Pack - Players - Media Player Classic , Then click options

Attached Image

Under Output do what i do

Attached Image

Under Playback TICK the "Auto-Load Subtitles"

Attached Image

RESTART THE MEDIA PLAYER CLASSIC

Load any mkv file that you want and right click , under filters you should see MPC Video Decoder (low merit)

Attached Image

then click it, you should see this window poping up, you will see the DXDA mode tick and it's showing that Hardware Accleration is working

Attached Image

Then the magic begins, watch your cpu load , here's mine tongue.gif

Attached Image


THIS GUIDE IS FOR WINDOWS XP ONLY. VISTA USERS YOU HAVE TO EXPERIMENT WITH EVC, I DONT HAVE VISTA DONT ASK ME..

HARDWARE ACCELERATION ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE THOSE ATI HD CARDS , ABOUT NVIDIA I'M NOT SURE WHICH CARD HAS IT.

i tested on my 7900 gs and it does not work

for reference i have catalyst 8.9 installed and .net 3.5 installed

credit goes to the internet.

PLEASE POST IF THERE'S ANY DIFFERENCE IN YOUR CPU USAGE AND PLAYBACK , THANK YOU , WANTED TO SEE IF IT WORKS FOR EVERYONE WITH HD ENABLE GRAPHIC CARD

For XP it is simple.

Download and register ATIDVCR.DLL
Install DOTNET 3.xx
Then register evr.dll just incase
Then look in MPC under the renderers and you'll see EVR.


Added on September 21, 2008, 10:27 pmOr grab CoreAVC, install. Go to the ffdshow video codec settings. Disable codec source for h.264 it will now render in all ur h.264 with CoreAVC.


Added on September 21, 2008, 10:28 pmBTW click my blog just to see how powerful is CoreAVC.

Yes I'd go as far as saying CoreAVC is the best when decoding H264.

Last weekend, after I bought 22" LCD monitor, my pc suddenly can't use hardware acceleration. My MPC HC just have black screen and can't play. But when check with MPC Video Decoder filter, the DXVA mode showed "H.264 bitstreamdeocder noFGT". Usually, when this mode showed, my hardware acceleration is running, low cpu utilization. So, I try uninstall all filter (I'm using klite code), and reinstall everything. But still not work.

Finally, I change my resolution from 1680 x 1050 (native) to 1280 x 1024 . It work's blink.gif . Change back, not working. Why this happen? I'm using vista x64 sp1.

my spec:
AMD mobo with 780g chipset
AM2 X2 5200

do i need to install coreavc? or is there any setting that i missed?

according to the guide, i need to disable h264 in cccp settings. when i disable that, the mpc-hc cannot play mkv files.

Missing 2 step.

1. Use internal decoder, press O and go "Internal Filters"
and tick H264/AVC DXVA.

2. and for Output, All video renderer works on XP,
execpt Haali video renderer, EVR, EVR Custom Presenter.
For vista user, only EVR and EVR Custom Presenter support DXVA.

Of cource dont expect it will work for all your h264 u got it from net, coz DXVA is very picky, there is a chance DXVA will failed if the h264 videos were encoded by x264 encoder, coz u dont know what the hell the encoding setting that were used by encoders.

Im not sure about this, but if you want to use sub with dxva, you have to use VMR7/9(XP) renderless mode or EVR custom presenter(vista) renderer.
other renderer does not work with internal sub decoder, never tried with vsfilter.

Sadly mate, from my test no Atom or Celeron Processor can run 1080p. It even chokes sometimes on P4's.

my pc spec
amd barton 1.8ghz
geforce 7600gs (pixel shader 3.0)

i do the following to maximize performance when playback 720p, which is quite smooth with my spec of pc

-mpc-hc as media player
-use haali renderer (best performance among the other renderers VMR9 and EVR, although on some videos it will display wrong framesize, such as youtube .flv)
-use haali media splitter (compare to internal mpc splitter, it is noticeably faster during seeking)
-coreavc (faster than divx7, ffdshow, or internal mpc decoder)
-audio decoder no difference whether use ffdshow or internal mpc decoder

1080p videos cannot playback smoothly, though.

1080p playback requirement is very high, dual core 3.0GHz is a must to ensure smooth playback with software decoder, and decoder must be ffdshow multithreaded version, Dixv7.
mid-end GPU is a plus(video frame buffering).
if the software decoder is Coreavc, CPU requirement might lower abit sinec its pertty fast.
Downside is, high CPU usage.

if user's GPU is ati HD2000 series / Nvidia G84 series / Via S3 Chrome 430GT / Intel GMA4500MHD GS45 and better, minimum CPU spec = 1GHz, with mpc internal h264 Dxva decoder(VIA S3 Chrome and Intel GS45 status is unknown).
Advantage = low CPU usage,
Downside, if the h264 video was encoded without using Dxva-compliant settings(refrence frame more than 7), Dxva decoder will failed to work, and software decoding mode will be painfully slow.

btw, no even i googled abit, there is no x64 version.
you have 3 choice,
1. grab a msvc9 and compile a x64 version of ac3filter youself.
2. ffdshow x64 version
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.p...lease_id=569930
3. mpc-hc x64 version
http://www.xvidvideo.ru/content/category/1/1/2/

before anyone ask, the 3 app listed above are using the same thing, liba52, for ac3 decoding.

Improve quality?
every media player will output the same image quality, unless user is messing with the image filter (postprocessing, denoiser, equalizer, of course doing it wrong will degrade the video quality, though those filter are not possible to enable on realtime)
or the decoder is bugged.
Yup the quality is depend on te video itself,
the Dxva decoder will still output the crappy image if the video was pooly encoded.

Apple HD h264 video from here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/guide/hd/
for example BBC Motion gallery, Japan:
720p http://images.apple.com/movies/us/hd_galle...-japan_720p.mov

1080p http://images.apple.com/movies/us/hd_galle...japan_1080p.mov

Please note that apple HD gallery only using Main Profile, not the most CPU demanding, but its enough make your CPU choking if Dxva doesn work or disabled, and system requirement not meet.

^ 7900gs is old gen GPU, it does support h264 Dxva, but only iDCT or motion compensation,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_PureVi...on_PureVideo_HD

While mpc-hc dxva only support bitstream decoding,
its completely offloading the decoding to gpu,
but only supported on new gen nvidia GPU G84 and newer.

try Dixv7 h264 decoder, if its still lag, times to upgrade your hardware whistling.gif

Yeah, CoreAVC pro is the fastest software decoder, which support CUDA but only for nvidia.

Does HD2400 supports DXVA / encoding video using GPU instead of CPU?

If you are not sure what is your GPU an would like to know whether if its support Dxva. try Dxva checker.
http://bluesky23.hp.infoseek.co.jp/#DXVAChecker
screenshots: http://bluesky23.hp.infoseek.co.jp/dxvac/ss.html

if you dont see ModeH264_VLD_NoFGT of first tab, your graphic card does not work witj mpc-hc h264 Dxva decoder, only software mode.

Encoding video using GPU only work if your GPU is HD4000 series.

It shows ModeH264_VLD_NoFGT when checking my HD2400 low profile GC. But when follow the instruction on the below link and play 1080p content with subtitles, the scene not seems quite smooth.

For 1080p, I use VMR9 (renderless) instead of EVR, which the result CPU do the encoding.
I revert back using EVR Custom Preset for 720p. Results, smooth playback with subtitles

Yup, start from ATi HD2000 series GPU, will support H264 VLD NoFGT, which GPU does all the decoding stuff.

Well i think i mentioned before,
Dxva on Vista only work with EVR and EVR Custom Presenter,
while for XP, Dxva only work with Overlay Mixer, VMR 7/9/Windowed/Renderless mode.

if you use the wrong combination, eg your OS is vista but you are not using EVR,
mpc h264 dxva decoder will fallback to software mode, which CPU will all the decoding work,

If you are using VMR7/9 Renderless or EVR Custom Presenter,
press CTRL + J
and you will see the OSD with verbose of information:

I test Bolt 1080p BluRay Rip movie using EVR Custom Presenter (using vista), enable lock back buffer 3, auto-load subs and it seems there's a huge framerate freeze.

But when analyse another 1080p movies, the framerate output are different, less framerate freeze and i believe it depends on the screen size.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Based from what I've seen on the graph, when the frame went slow, the graph drops below the thick blue line and max jitter getting higher.

if your media is mainly avi and mkv, codec pack is not needed for playback. MPC-HC is sufficient.

K-Lite Codec pack should be more capable than CCCP, they update their MPC-HC version to the latest build every two weeks or so, compared to CCCP where updates take forever.

I don't have any videos capable of DXVA anyway sweat.gif , so software mode all the way for me.

I suggest using codec packs btw, unless you're good enough to compile(you'll need a bunch of softwares).

It doesnt matter if your OS 32bit or x64,
as long as your OS is Windows XP and above, with proper hardware, proper video player plus codecs and your video file is Dxva compliant,
Then the hardware acceleration will work without problem.

Installer version probably are for novice user, easier to use only.
you can use the one without installer, just extract the file you want.
Standalone fitlers are for other players like WMP, Zoom player and other directshow-based /Dxva-less player which relies to external directshow filter, to use the H264/VC-1 Dxva without using mpc-hc.

Press O, click "internal filters", make sure the H264/AVC (DXVA) is checked on mpc-hc.
and read previous pages,
Dxva only works if
1. Your video card support Dxva (HD2000 and above)
2. On Windows Vista, your video renderer is EVR or EVR custom presenter, Windows XP will work with all video renderers except EVR, HVR and MadVR.
3. Your video file must be h264/VC-1 and its was encoded with Dxva complaint setttings.
4. Your video container must be MKV or MP4, avi will likely fail to work.

if you compare those two, the build included in K-Lite is newer

but the build from this site is even newer.

Reason is very simple, some of your video file isnt Dxva compliant, rather than video card problem,
there are too many ways to break the Dxva.

If you cpu is 3 GHz or better, try playback using latest version of ffdshow,
less trouble than Dxva, lag-free if configured correctly,
downside is high cpu usage.

your pc spec has a slim chance to play 1080p video smoothly, try CoreAVC?
here is how to "tweak" the vlc:

mplayer can disable more for better performance, but quality very bad, eg lotsa frame skipping + ugly blocking tongue.gif

since you are using mpc hc,
launch mpc hc, press "O", > Internal Filters > Transform filter, scrolldown and you will see 2 h264 decoder,
untick H264/AVC (Dxva) and select the FFmpeg one.

Thanks alot! CoreAVC did the job very well. its at least 80% better than before now. At least the video is watchable and the lagginess/blocks are much less.
I don't expect to watch 1080p videos on this pc, i'm already very happy if 720p vids play well.
Thanks again =D

video not downloaded completely, usually if u use torrent and u finished(remove additional extension) it before it complete.
u may resume download(need hashcheck first) or if the torrent has gone [u cant download it anymore], and the file is divx u can repair it using DivFix.

black band on the top and bottom? is it the movie aspect ratio is 16:9?
unless you change you monitor to 16:9 or 16:10 type, less black band tongue.gif
the only 2 ways to remove the 2 black band is crop off the left and right of the video using ffdshow doh.gif
or disable "keep aspect ratio" on mpc, you movie will be streched to fullscreen, both method isnt good actually doh.gif

PC spec? low end GPU might suffering stuttering video or audio playback, or slow CPU,
if your OS is vista or w7, chance are the video player's video renderer use too much CPU resource and causing the audio to stuttering.

MPEG2/DVD partial DXVA tongue.gif
[attachmentid=1666308]

Btw, its nothing special and not a new thing, if your OS is vista and w7,
the default decoder for MPEG1/2 on vista already support MPEG1/2 Dxva, it just no one know about it lol,
and, the default decoder on Windows 7 support MPEG1/2/H264 Dxva too,
the MPC Dxva decoder its just a open source version, and the adavantage of this decoder is, it's work with Windows XP.


Added on July 10, 2010, 11:56 pmA little update here:
Well i have tried to download the out-of-spec h264 video from this site:
http://imouto.my/watching-h264-videos-using-dxva/
i have only got 2, other links to download the video doesn't seem to work now doh.gif
i tried to post a comment on that blog but the site said im spammer LOL

Ati user finally able to playback those out-of-spec video, tested 2 clips from site above plus with my own h264 test video encoded with insane settings (16 reference frame and 16 b-frames).
no more error output or skipping scene, the only requirement is, its only work with EVR Custom Presenter or EVR,
other video renderer does not work at all,
So far i have only tested on Windows 7, and Catalyst 10.6,
Windows XP does have EVR renderer provided if you have installed .NET framework 3.5 or may be higher version, but video crashed mpc for me tongue.gif

Is anyone having gpu acceleration problems on vlc?

I wanted to test out whether there is any significant change to video playback if it's on gpu.

The video playback became laggy worst when I ticked on the option.

My laptop specs:
AMD AThlon X2 p320 (2.1ghz)
2GB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250

Is there any need for an update or do I have to change the video output (currently on default) or simply there isn't any support yet for my GC?

What is your OS?
Though i never tried VLC hardware acceleration before,
try mpc-hc recent build first, make sure your ati catalyst is up to date.
download recent build here:

Win 7 64 bit

I'm not sure whether I should update my ATi Catalyst cause the default version is 2010.0329.836.13543

First time trying to update my GC and I'm not sure whether it's OK to mess with it.

Read ur guide and it's very informational but it would take a while for me to follow it cause having exams now.

Well newer version of catalyst might have better chance to decode "Out-of-spec" h264 with DXVA enabled.
thats not my guide sweat.gif its from one of the forumer from here.

if your H264 or any other video that capable of DXVA might not work if the video container is "AVI".
it crashed my pc once when i tried the beta version.

hmmm,i got some 720p & 1080p mkv movie,
but i do feel that 1080p doesn't seem too be much much more hd that 720p is it anything due to my 19" 1440x900 bottleneck the reso,so the 1080p movie oni play at 1440x900 but not 1920x1080 ?

Its because your video player downscaled the 1080p video to fit into your LCD reso.
so yes the video only play at 1440x900.

the detail might appear to blurry due to the default resampler use by video renderer.
you still can improve the quality if you want to play 1080p on your non-FullHD LCD, by using high quality resampler, but that comes with a price: high CPU usage.

hi peeps,

any clues why i only to get some h.264 videos in DXVA mode? some files after i double checked the video properties to confirm the h.264 but still MPC-HC says 'not using DXVA'.

and also why i cant output DTS (and only Dobly digital works)?

Dxva are very picky about video, make sure your MPC-HC is up to date.
Dxva is onlly supported if your h264 is in MKV, MP4, and prolly MPEG-TS.

Can you list out your PC spec?
Especially OS, video card and video driver.
For DTS im not sure, you could try ffdshow first, and make sure your video/audio card support DST passtrough, and your amp.

thanks bro...

Yeah u're right. Gonna be picky as well when downloading video sweat.gif DXVA play flawlessly... thumbup.gif
got the DTS working after install AC3filter and set it to passthrough..now DTS,AC3 and AAC all also no problem thumbup.gif

I am guessing this is the right thread to ask this question..
other than smooth playback, what is the best shader to use for mpc-hc?

so far i am using 16-235->0-255 [SD][HD] + sharpen complex 2 as shown
user posted image

But I am somewhat not happy with the outcome. As shown in the picture above, even though the colors look richer than standard, the details look somewhat smudgy..

Monitor I am using Asus VK246H

i'm facing some lagginess when playing 1080p with MPC-HC and also real media video, but not with WMP.

i only can feel the lag when using DXVA on 1080p video. as for real media i'm not so sure. icon_question.gif

Rmvb can lag? probably poorly encoded lol, try other player like Mplayer or VLC see if the same things happen or not.
What is your OS and GPU? 1080 can be lag too if your video renderer is VRM9/EVR renderless/custom presenter as need at least mid end GPU.
And, update your video driver first.

WMP use EVR only thats why the 1080p so smooth.

other player no prob. MPC giving prob only.

win7 and 8600gts. 8600gts quite powerful. now igp also can play 1080p smoothly

Update your MPC-HC as well, and dont expect Dxva works with all HD video, dxva is very picky, if the video you are playing is not supported by Dxva it will fall back to CPU/ aka software decoding mode, which is super slow.

just asking, why want to use MPC-HC if you know other player does not have playback problem? doh.gif

For DXVA, I recommend at least a 512MB card minimum
256MB can't cut it for total smooth DXVA playback

About your RMVB lag, the only thing I can blame is either the decoder or the encoded video itself. What was the CPU usage when viewing the RMVB file?

Too bad i sold my 2600xt, so i cant verify for this, 256mb is more than enough imho, even an IGP like 4200 series also capable of bluray playback leh sweat.gif

256MB will work, but won't have total smooth experience, thats why I recommended at least a 512MB card
But anyway, GPU with 1GB cards are cheap nowadays, just upgrade and kill all the headaches biggrin.gif

Tried a friend's old AGP of the HD2600Pro with 512MB RAM, running smooth with DXVA on Windows XP last time

quite low, less than 5% i think. I think it is just the settings problem.
when playing DXVA, gpu memory usage only around 50%. so i dun thk so its gpu's prob.
i only notice lagginess in rmvb when using mpc, not with wmp. strange rite? sweat.gif

OK, for your RMVB you are using ffdshow's RMVB decoder?
If yes, disable it and download Real Alternative and it will solve your problems

GPU at 50% should work then, that should be okay. Maybe you do more testing to confirm because gone are the days of 256MB VRAM, now minimum also 512MB biggrin.gif

If im correct, the GPU on your laptop is X3100? GMA X3100 only support full MPEG2 Dxva, partial VC-1/WMV and no hardware acceleration for h264/AVC.
Only GL40 chipset support them all with full hardware acceleration.

IF your Laptop is dual core cpu with at least 1.8GHz, should be able to playback 1080p rip smoothly but CPU usage will be skyhigh.

Hi Lyn members,

Im using laptop with normal intel HD graphic card to play movie with my tv. I have tried splash player the only player that can decode DTS HD master audio. My prob with this player I cant enable the spdif passtru, is there any alternative I can do this.

Do you have any recomendation for other player that run smoothly for MKV file or perhaps upscale a bit? Do MKV media file contain HD audio?

You could try FFdshow, + mpc-hc
user posted image

If you wants you MKV run smoothly, use Mpc-hc and enable the interal h264 dxva decoder. For higher quality upscaling you should use EVR custom presenter or Madvr.
MKV support many formats, thats including True HD and DTS HD.

thank you very much for your reply 1024Kbps... the prob is using mpc hc i could not get the HD audio working... I can get normal DD or DTS but not DTS HD or Dolby TruHD...

In addition I can really tell a diff using splash and mpc hc.. splash is more smooth but i could not get normal dd or dts audio in here. and im not sure if mpc hc could plyt m2ts file because there is no audio when i try to play them.

in order to get DD or DTS in mpc hc i hv to ticked the AC3/SPDIF encode mode.. but when listening to normal laptop speaker the sound is completely broken and I hv to change it back.

Hmm i thought ffdshow support them, probably need separate directshow decoder or something, or may be need to configure the HD audio decoder manually.

Haali media splitter support m2ts, and try to enable all audio decoder support on ffdshow see if it could work.
splash player free version dont support spdif passtru, mpc-hc and ffdshow probably is your only options.

Sound card on your pc only support PCM thats why the sound is completely broken. there may be no way to do this automatically ...
Btw im not pro on this area because never tried the spdif/hdmi stuff before sweat.gif

hmm... im using haali as well.. but i failed to make it work.. someone told me to use gabest instead of haali..
but i dont know how to integrate gabest in mpc hc. anyway tks for your reply 1024kbps, appreciate it.

Hello people.

I have problems watching HD movies on my pc.
720p lag. 1080p VERY lag, especially when scrolling thru the time. Voice sync will run.

I am using Klite megapack(latest ver). MPC. Running on win7 64bit.
Rig specs:

1.86ghz core2duo
2gb DDR2 667 ram
Nvidia 8600GT OC edition


Previously i was on winXP, and i uses CoreAVC with CCCP which runs fine. But as time goes on, CoreAVC cannot decode newer movies properly. I will experience the color artifacts and mosaics effect.
So when i changed to win7, i uses MPC with KLITE. I noticed the lags starts then. I tried changing to CoreAVC too, but it still suffers from lag.
Watching a 1080p (10gb++ size movie), i noticed the CPU usage is at 70% and above. In between movie, voice sync runs out, lags, and even sound being cut off.

Any ideas?Does adding in another 2 x 2gb DDR667 gonna help?I cant change GFX card since my PSU only 300 watts WITHOUT the molex sockets.

Afaik, the MPC was set to run on GPU processing.

if CPU usage is 70%, MPC is not using GPU decoding

a low powered GPU such as ati HD6570 or nvidia gt430 can run without external power source

you can read more about hardware decoding here: http://imouto.my/watching-h264-videos-using-dxva/

After setting, then i played the same video. Now in the MPC, the bottom there is written "Playing [DXVA]". I assume i did the right way.
Then in properties, i saw this message:

DXVA Mode : H.264 bitstream decoder. no FGT
Video card : Nvidia Geforce 8600gt

Meaning?


Now time seeking is faster, CPU load is lower between 18-30%. But i still see the jerkiness in 1080p.
Could it be i am downloading (150kbps) files to the same hdd where the movie is playing?
I tried another one in another hdd with the download running, same.
Stopping the download only improves by a little...

Yup its currently decoding in DXVA mode, what is your CPU? 18/30% is still high for DXVA imho.
And downloading file and playback of video on the same HDD does not effect performance much unless your HDD is the old one or slowest type.
Or may be the video is interlaced?

OR if the video your are playing is original rip from bluray(average 35 megabit per second for video).

Whats your GPU?
Change the video renderer to EVR first, EVR custom presenter need better GPU.
And if the video is interlaced or telecined, the video will prolly render at 60fps which more need more GPU resource.

Second is dont use that codec pack, Windows 7 already comes with h264 + MPEG1/2 + VC-1 decoder with DXVA support.
If your GPU is not nvidia the CoreAVC will use your CPU to decode the video, which is much more slower than Microsoft decoder.

I3 530 cpu frequency is 2.93GHz right? its more than enough already,
Like i said, try to use windows media player to play it first.
Turn off Aero or other fancy effects on windows so your GPU will be less stress during playing 1080p content.

if the problem still there, probably the integrated GPU cant make it, you will need some mid-end GPU like 6670 or GTX 540/550.

Short answer: yes, its under-spec, basically you will need dual core desktop(core duo 1.8GHz) cpu, or dxva capable GPU(radeon HD2300, nvidia 8400 or better).

intel GMA 950 only have basic dxva for MPEG2, VC-1 and h264 support is missing, and your CPU might be too slow for any other software decoder.
plus playing 1080p on your 1024x576 lcd at fullscreen, the player will need to resize the video from 1920x1080 to 1024x576 the fit the lcd, the player will use more cpu resource to resize the video. (only applies if playing on your laptop)
Try CoreAVC, it's your only hope sweat.gif

1) drag all the files to any place & dun put elsewhere.
2) lavfilters > double click install audio,splitter,video .bat
3) madflac > double click install.bat
4) madvr > double click install.bat
5) done! u can play ur 1080p

*if u plan to move those files, u must uninstall lavfilters, madflac, & madvr by double click those .bat files only!

Actually Madvr is high quality video renderer(read: slow, require mainstream GPU), and it's incompatible with Dxva, playing 1080p will make things worse sweat.gif
If the user's os is Win7 then there is not need all the third party video decoder to play 1080p with Dxva, just Wmp 12 will do if the user GPU is not so ancient. or just mpc-hc alone is enough rclxms.gif

As for the Real video problem, i dont have rmvb samples on my side, how about try this?
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry39961760
Or you could try MPlayer, http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry39961760
Mplayer is the most robust player i've ever used, im sure it can playback the real video without much problem.

What hi10p? Dxva with hi10p decoding support?
the current Dxva version does not support hi10p yet, mpc and wmp12 will just give you blank screen if you forced to enable Dxva.

Hi10P 1080p video... i can play it smoothly if i set mpc-hc affinity to 2 cpu, 3.7GHz, absolutely smooth,
or set to 3 cpu with only 1GHz, also smooth but cpu usage is 100% for all cores.
Decoder is Divx7 h264 < fastest free software h264 decoder imho.
Disabling Aero/desktop composition will improve performance, may be.

h264 software-based decoder is pretty fast nowadays, my thuban 3.7GHz can play 4 bluray videos simultaneously, original uncompressed 35Mbps without lag, or playback 7 instance of 1080p compressed(~2mbps) fansub, simultaneously.
decoder is ffdshow, Divx7 sure can do alot better.
While Dxva decoder cant do that, the gpu driver will crash lol.

tri-core or quad core's cpu user shouldn't worry about playing 1080p, it will smooth unless the decoder has prob, or mis-configured player.
As for Dxva with Hi10p support, it prolly just matter of time, at first, Nvidia was the only GPU that can decode the 1080p with More than 4 reference frame, while Ati/amd couldn't, but later max 4 reference frame restriction was "unlocked" on newer Catalyst.

Ati drive quite buggy, every new catalyst come out sure got something broke lol, even it's WHQL'ed, if aint broken, dont update gpu driver rclxms.gif
For flawless Dxva playback you should read the first page, or here : http://imouto.my/watching-h264-videos-using-dxva/
If someone installed too many codecs, they will override the default h264 decoder, or user does not know how to configure.

Always try to play your h264 video with wmp12 first , cause it support Dxva by default, 'cept hi10p, and check for cpu usage, if its high prolly means dxva does not work.
Or try dxva checker: http://bluesky23.yu-nagi.com/en/#DXVAChecker

Btw who are they? tongue.gif

All use Lanczos processing, 4 taps, probably sharpest (was using the same setting on ffdshow).
But i think the scaling will not be used if your video dimension is same as your monitor dimension, eg 1080p, so it's prolly useful if watching 480p or 720p videos.

never tried it before cause im using normal lcd sweat.gif

if its really so easily convert the normal video to 3d video,
some one would have added a video filter that can do that in realtime to ffmpeg or ffmpeg based video codec/filters,
or pixel shader codes added to mpc-hc sweat.gif

Whats the difference? sweat.gif need proof icon_idea.gif
Madvr currently does not support Dxva, as the current Dxva need compatible video renderer to working correctly, eg EVR/CP, on Vista/7.
Currently only CUDA decoder can work independently (Lavfilter and CoreAVC).
I remember the mpc-hc dev said he want to make one MFT based decoder(does not rely on video renderer too.), but its long time ago already, not sure when he will finish it sweat.gif

MadVR need main stream GPU iirc, i dont own a mid end GPU so i cant test it for you.
Exclusive fullscreen/disable Aero, may solve your problem but its buggy on my side, you could try it though, if not just use normal video renderer is enough, and use it with ffdshow scaler if you have fast quadcore CPU.
since most of the time you cant notice the different between two renderer doh.gif
