+---- Thread: Initial native support for DXVA2 in SVN - Time to say goodbye to your firstborns (/showthread.php?tid=69306)
- compcentral - 2010-05-21
do we know yet when we can expect a build with fully working addon support? I thought an official build with addons was emminent soon.

Has anyone got plugins or scripts to work on these dxva builds?

Nope - Official line - it will be ready when its ready

Even when we release same issues apply. Old plugins need updating to new system.

Awesome!! The latest build works perfectly!

cool will try later
has multiple audio tracks on the latest SVNs been fixed ? Everyone SVN I've tried since the last formal stable release, multiple audio tracks don't work, you can select any of the audio tracks/streams, but as soon as you do - XBMC hangs with a windows error
stable released worked perfectly

I'll be testing this on an ATI HD3200 this weekend, but out of curiosity, does anyone need me to test on my Intel 4500MHD? Its on my Acer Aspire 1410T with HDMI audio out and a ULV core2duo, so I can test that too.
I'd be able to compile the code if you point me to a compiler you'd recommend.. its been a while since I've needed one.
EDIT: btw, big thanks to those devs working on DXVA, and XBMC in general. Great stuff!

Alright. Tested on a Radeon 3450 for now. Using r30362 I'm getting significant pixelation and some artifacting when using DXVA. As soon as I turn it off, it looks pretty, but 30% cpu. I'm running the 10.2 cats. I'll see if 10.4 is any better.
Btw, cpu is an Intel E4500, seems to handle 1080p with few drops.
EDIT: No go. Windows 7 btw. No change in picture, looks like its scaled up from 320x480. Not terrible artifacting. Any ideas?

Will there be an mpeg2 support of DXVA2? I've got some Blu-ray's in mpeg2 format (Ice Age 2, Mission Impossible ...)

If not, then make the change to 10.4, many users myself included have posted excellent dxva results albeit with 4xxx and 5xxx series cards.

Don't think there has been amy change since elupus last made that statement, though I might have missed something along the way.

Sorry forgot to mention that.. yes, tried at 10.4 at that last edit and no go. I've seen people get successful results with 3xxx series on this board, so I know it works. Is there a DX redist I can reinstall to see if it fixes the problem?

I think some users have been directed here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=04ac064b-00d1-474e-b7b1-442d8712d553, but not 100% sure. If you are installing from DXInstaller from the sshcs site DX installs as part of the build, providing you are connected to the internet during install.

Well the DXVA2 is getting better for the HD3400 users with Windows 7 32bit, with the cats 10.4 and r30362 things stay stable for about 15-20 sec then start to pixelate. Hope this means there is still hope for us. If I should be trying something else please let me know, thanks >

Finally made the switch from old rev28256 to a newer sshcs build rev30362.
The auto-refreshrate works so much better now, i don't know if it had to with using a dual screen, but it used to be so buggy, it could take like 20 or 30s to stabilize on 24hz, as the HDMi signal kept getting lost... And windows explorer crashed often.
Now the situation is much more stable, it switches to 1080p/24Hz, goes back quickly to 1080p then to 1080p/24Hz for good, in about 5s.
Only thing that could get better is like some others mentionned in this thread before, to wait for signal to stabilize before its starts playing, as you hear the audio while the hdmi handshaking is occurring, so for tv sitcoms i always have to press left arrow once video is here in order to get back to the beginning.
I also noted that some HDTV encodes @ 59.940fps now play fine, whereas rev28256 played them very badly (lots of stutter).
