elupus, that's what I thought, but why is there a difference between viewing same hd content in 1080i and 720p mode. in 720p mode it's smooth but in 1080i it has drops.
my hd content (1280x720) looks better at 1080i and then scaled down to 1366x768 by the tv than scaled up to 1366x768. maybe it's just me that's what I think

[elupus]

well.. hmm.. well.. there is quite a huge leap from 720p to 1080i (or p as we have handle it). I didn't think we would hit any gpu limit. I assume you tried the different renderers and disabled interlaced handling. If you happen to have the xdk installed and a debug bios you can check the gpu/cpu usage and see the difference.

MartinC, that file just looks unsupported. Don't really know what's wrong with it.

Weird it plays back for the most part expect those few seconds.

In the first log I provided XBMC crashed, in the last one it just auto exited the file.

[elupus]

anyway, could we please avoid talking about perf issues with renderers/special cpu's in this thread.. keep it in the other one please.

it's very O.T.

Hi elupus,

first of all let me thank you for putting so much work into the development of mplayer.dll But I am sorry to say I think I may have found a major bug to your latest mplayer.dll.

When playing back a mms:// source the frame duration seems to double whereas the audio plays back in regular speed. Means: Video is at half speed, audio is at full speed.

Here is a debug log I did today:

http://www.xbmc-tv.com/xbmc.log

Funny enough that worked in the previous mplayer.dll as for example in the T3CH build of 2007-02-16 (the then "official" mplayer.dll not your version).

As my project XBMC-TV is using a lot of mms:// sources this is kind of a problem as our "customers" will have a decreased viewing comfort when going for the latest mplayer.dll. Could you plz be so kind and look into that?

If you need any further information feel free to contact me.

Cheers

if you get me a sample stream i'll have a look at it.

Should be ABC News Now. If you want to I can send you a larger bunch of streams that show the same/similar problems via pm. Just let me know

Thank you for your help!

Hello elupus,

i'm not sure if this is the right Thread for my problem.

Since there is the 'new' mplayer.dll in the T3CH Releases, I have problems with playing some videos recorded with my VDR. VDR is the 'Linux Video Disk Recorder' which record in a little bit 'strange' PES format.

The older mplayer.dll has no problems playing the videos. But after the change to the new dll, some (not all) recordings don't even start. If I replace the mplayer.dll with the old version, the affected videos play. On my PC with mplayer 1.0pre8 the videos play as well.

Is this the right Thread for my problem? If yes, I could provide some debug logs or even a snippet of such a file.

Ciao,

pacemaker

[elupus]

yup it's the right thread, and yea a sample of such a file would be nice.

[akaigotchi]

Hi elupus,

do you have any update on the issue I posted recently? It would be nice to know if I am the only one seeing this

Hi eluplus,

i'm having trouble playing back the following streams in the latest T3CH:

mms://213.254.239.51/tagesschau/msmedia/2007/0215/TV-20070215-0142-3701.wm.hi.wmv
rtsp://213.254.239.50/tagesschau/realmedia/2007/0507/TV-20070507-0453-3501.rv.hi.rm

This concerns all content from tagesschau.de. I was however successful in playing back the first stream in latest svn mplayer on linux. Do you have any hints to get those playing. Or would it be possible for me to build an mplayer.dll based on mplayer svn?

Thanks for your time and work
