RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - vicmanpergar - 2015-04-04 @Cinder It's not important how u name the filters as long as they are declared in filtersconfig.xml in ur userdata folder. The name on my side was lavspliter for the spliter and lavfspliter for the source, or something similar. So, when adding filters in mediasconfig.xml, u wanna have filtersconfig.xml open and visible to take a look to the correc names. @aracnoz Great.... willd download RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - Warner306 - 2015-04-04 (2015-04-04, 17:48)Cinder Wrote: Has anyone setup a working DSPlayer + madVR + SVP? If you can't see the difference in picture quality, turn up your settings. With a GTX 960, you could use NNEDI3 for both chroma and luma, if you wanted. You will see the smallest improvement in 1080p rips, but the difference is still there. Turn off debanding as it strips away some detail. The same can be said for Smooth Motion. Basically, if you aren't satisfied with your settings, then change to a different scaling algorithm that looks good to you. Jinc3 + AR can appear soft to some people (at least, at 1080p). Jinc4 or Lanczos3-4 might look better to your eyes. There are hundreds of combinations of settings available in madVR. That is what separates it from many renderers. But I would agree, with some content, the difference is not immediately apparent. After you have watched content for year, like me, I bet you will not want to go back. It is easy to see the difference. Or maybe I just like what its scaling looks like.

I am also experiencing some freezing during playback. I was going to send aracnoz a message about my findings today. Try turning dubugging on. As stupid as it sounds, it fixed my freezing problems during playback. Unfortunately, no one likes to leave dubugging on. In the meantime, you could use this solution until the stability of DSPlayer is improved: 209596 (thread). RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - hlina - 2015-04-04 aracnoz; lowering "how many video frames shall be presented in advance" helped with crashing caused by mouse clicks, Pressing "b" still crashes Kodi. Can you give me a hint, wow I can get to see the madVR settings in Kodi?

Turn on the option for the madVR gui in DSPlayer Settings. Then, access the player controls during playback and select Video Settings. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - hlina - 2015-04-04 Might be a stupid question, but how do I access player controls?

RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - Warner306 - 2015-04-04 I added a section in the guide describing profile rules and the rules governing their use.

Reverted back to MadVR 0.87.14 and it's fixed.Versions .16 or .17 are messing up with full screen mode (exclusive or overlay), but only in Kodi/DSPlayer. From Aracnoz: can you make two logs in debug mode of madVR with version 0.87.14 and 0.87.17 and send them to madshi ... would be useful to have no problems with future vesion of madVR ---- I got more details about this issue. Also posted the same findings on MadVR forum: 1. Only when using DSPlayer (Kodi) with MadVR as a renderer in either Full screen exclusive or Full screen overlay 2. Have luma doubling set (# of neurons doesn't seem to matter) 3. Have the downscaling done by any of the custom pixel shader options (I use Catmull-Rom) As soon as I change the downscaling to DXVA2 the problem goes away. It repros with version 0.87.17. Question - do you know what could be causing this behavior only on DSPlayer? Do I lose quality by using DXVA2 instead of Catmull-Rom (looks like DXVA2 equals Bilinear for my NVIDIA card) RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - dbezerra - 2015-04-04 Aracnoz, Another issue I found earlier today: When the path to the video is passed like smb://<user>:<password>@server/<path>/<filename.mkv> DSPlayer fails to play the video (with any renderer choice) 12:06:04 T:924 ERROR: CFGLoader::InsertSourceFilter Failed to load file in the splitter/source 12:06:04 T:924 ERROR: CFGLoader::LoadFilterRules Failed to insert the source filter 12:06:04 T:924 ERROR: CFGManager::RenderFileXbmc Failed to load filters rules 12:06:04 T:924 ERROR: CDSPlayer:rocess - Failed creating DS Graph But when the path is passed like smb://server/<path>/<filename.mkv> it works just fine. this is an important scenario for folks using the MediaBrowser (Emby) integration wtih Kodi since this is how they are passing the file. I will open a similar comment on their forum. Do you see this as something you can fix on DSPlayer side? It works fine with the default Kodi player. Daniel..

You will probably never downscale an image unless image doubling over the target resolution. The question is whether enabling DXVA overrides other settings (which it can). You can test this by looking at the rendering stats (Cntrl + J) during playback and checking what scaling algorithms are being used. Downscaling, in general, isn't all that important, but there could be limitations I'm not aware of.

I use downscaling after doubling 720p sources with 1080p as the final goal. I know I could just opt for Jinc upscaling but I prefer the doubling/downscaling method. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - spencerjford - 2015-04-04 on start of playback it just stopped responding. with debug on. log as follows in link http://pastebin.com/E7R0KJW7 RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - Warner306 - 2015-04-04 (2015-04-04, 23:19)spencerjford Wrote: on start of playback it just stopped responding. Does this happen on a regular basis or was this a rare incident? Also, was this a black screen on seek or a freeze?

With a GTX 960, you could use NNEDI3 for both chroma and luma, if you wanted. I tried NNEDI3 on my desktop (trying to find my preferred settings before migrating them to HTPC), and indeed I can see some improvements when switching back to "nearest neighbor" for instance. Differences between the other algorithms are really hard for me to spot, say between Jinc and NNEDI33. I tested this on a very low res video though (512x384), which leaves me wondering - which resolutions does madVR really shine at 720p upscaling to 1080p? I also found now that the madVR setting changes are in fact instantaneous to the played video, which I was unable to see on 1080p material. Still, I am getting dropped frames when running with SVP as well, any suggestions on solving that? And finally I get no subtitles in Kodi to show now that I'm running SVP with FFDShow Raw and madVR..? In any case, many thanks for your help, I'm sure I will be able to set this up to be fantastic with a little help. |
