RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - Warner306 - 2017-07-02 (2017-07-01, 22:46)RBraverman Wrote: Just so I'm sure. In order for this to work, I'll need to basically re-install EVERYTHING? All of your databases willl be updated with the installer. You don't lose anything. Just the player changes. That said, it wouldn't hurt to try a portable installation. All of the installers are linked in the first post. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - stoolzo - 2017-07-05 Few bugs i've been meaning to report for a while. BUG 1 - anyone else finding as movies take ages to load, its being getting gradually slow with newer versions of this, madvr and LAV filters, sat at a black screen for a good 10 seconds sometimes. BUG 2 - if you set the KODI gui to 3840p it overscales 1080p material to 4x its size which is totally bizarre, it makes not sense, its obviously getting confused about whether it should upscale or not, this should be an easy fix once someone works out what is going on. Workaround it to set KODI to 1080p, it then plays everything correctly, even 4K stuff. I have had this issue since day one of using KODI DS in 4K guess the windows DEVs havent moved to 4K yet BUG 3 - I'm also finding a lot of them time I lose video output when I stop movies, just goes to a black screen and have to kill KODI, so often i have had to create a shortcut on my remote for it. This has happened since day one though but its got much worse with recent versions.

Make sure you don't have windows set to scale like 150%. turn off windows scaling and it will be perfect. For whatever reason, with windows scaling on it does that wierd blow up the video so i can only see 1/4 of the video. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - stoolzo - 2017-07-05 cheers but having the TV at 100 is a none starter in a living room, you cant see anything its too small, for web and other stuff. I guess I could look at changing scaling using a batch file when KODI starts, I'll look into this but this just confirms that KODI isnt playing nice with windows 10 scaling. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - stoolzo - 2017-07-05 just tried that, it didnt work at all, 1080 video still played 4x size with scaling set to 100 percent.

Try this: Exit Kodi and go to your desktop. On your Kodi shortcut, right click it and right click again on "Kodi" when the context menu pops up (or alternately, just find Kodi in your apps menu and right click it). Click on properties, go to compatibility tab and make sure "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" is checked. Restart Kodi and test. Not sure how it will work at 100% scaling, but usually fixes a lot of these types of problems at higher scaling factors, so worth a try. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - stoolzo - 2017-07-06 no joy on that. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - 8ball - 2017-07-06 Hi can anyone tell me if I can use Dimitri Renderer on this (it works in MPC) - it uses Interpolating to create a 60fps source from whatever its playing, resulting in smooth (non-judder) pans/movement, I know a lot of people dont like this "soap opera effect" but I do, DR is the best one ive tried so far as it uses GPU and has very little artifacts, it installs from an EXE file but is run in MPC as DS filter how would I apply it to DS PLAYER? thanks RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - Warner306 - 2017-07-06 (2017-07-06, 20:40)8ball Wrote: Hi Can't do it, sorry. RE: Kodi DSPlayer – DirectShow Player for Windows - ashlar - 2017-07-07 (2017-06-30, 19:18)ashlar Wrote:Before proceeding with Kodi's reinstall I wanted to be sure that the problem was with Kodi. And MPC-HC ended up displaying the same exact behaviour. I updated LAV Filters once more, I updated madVR. I switched from Sanear to Reclock. I switched to the internal MPC-HC subtitles renderer. Nothing helped. I updated GPU drivers. Still nothing.(2017-06-30, 14:48)stoolzo Wrote: Its a full clean install of KODI with the old userdata copied over the top, so I guess its not really a full clean installI'd say... if you copy over the whole userdata folder you are not clean installing a lot, are you? I suppose you'll need to reinstall plugins (as the only their data portion resides under userdata). I isolated the date when it began giving me this problem and did a search, system wide, at everything that changed in the system during that time. Not much of interest there. Save for... wait for it... the damn antivirus. It was that BitDefender Free. As soon as I deactivated no more error. In the Event Log it got registered as a fault in ntdll.dll in case anybody else meets it in the future. Moved back to Windows Defender, at least for the time being. But it's the second time an antivirus gave me days of headaches in trying to debug HTPC problems. I need to wise up and check that as first step.

I just downloaded and installed Dimitri Renderer and added it to dsplayer filter list and it ran just fine. As I normally use bluskies filter (or however it's spelled) I wondered why couldn't Dimitri be used. And it can. Instructions follow Step one: Go to settings, video player, down to dsplayer Step two: Change filter management from INTERNAL FILTERS to MEDIA RULES AND FILTERS. Step three: Now Select filters configuration, then add filter. You will select add system filter, when you do you scroll through the system filters until you find Dimitry Render (or blueskies or whatever filter you want to add to Kodi DSPlayer) Once you have that selected, as this is an EXTRA filter you go down to filter type and select extra filter. Step four. Accept changes and save all changes. Then go to change filter management and change it back to INTERNAL FILTERS. Step five. From dsplayer settings, scroll down to extra filter and choose Dimitry Render and save all changes. Last step. Play a video and enjoy your soap opera effect.
