RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - popcornmix - 2016-04-13 (2016-04-13, 22:38)noggin Wrote: I keep meaning to do this with VALID. I'd need to ingest a VALID test clip in FCP or Avid and trust that the Kona capture cards we use don't do anything nasty (the audio will come in embedded in the HD-SDI) If I then play out the recording via HDMI at 1080i25 (or possibly 720p50) and assuming our HDMI to HD-SDI converters only add a small delay (and I don't route through a synchroniser) I could get a basic VALID answer (ignoring AC3) for PCM stereo. I'd be interested in the results of this for Pi (as well as other platforms). There is a patch in fernetmenta's branch that adds an extra one or two (display) frames of latency to audio (depending on whether renderer is double or triple buffered). I have a suspicion we should be doing that (especially after recent VideoPlayer changes have added at least one frame of latency to video). Would be nice to know if the right number to add is 0, 1, 2, 3... If you do test, then running display at 24Hz and 60Hz would be interesting (possibly the 60Hz case will be more accurate if the error is, say, two vsyncs). Also test with "adjust display refresh rate to match video" enabled/disabled (which could affect A/V latency). And on Pi run with OMXPlayer enabled/disabled (different code paths so potentially different settings). Testing a nightly build would be more useful (the answers may well be quite different from stable builds - but we want a fix for the future, not the past).

Suspect it will be 1080/50i or 720/50p only I think I only have 50i VALID available. It's not something I'll be able to do tomorrow. Will take a bit of work to get everything sorted - and to ensure I'm not adding delays elsewhere.

Would there be variance between all the different h/w types w/Kodi 17 and videoplayer, or something more standardized? And @noggin, why not the most common 23.976 for movie/TV content?

There is next to no live multi-camera studio or outside broadcast production in 23.976... In the UK it's pretty much universally 1080/50i (aka 1080i25) for studio and OB, with 1080/25p (aka 1080p25) acquisition for the bulk of location shoots (with some 1080/50i and a bit of '4K/25' nibbling around the high-end edges). If you have equipment to detect live lip-sync issues - it will be for 576/50i SD and 1080/50i HD pretty much universally. It's particularly live paths that VALID is designed to check. (You can't fix live shows in the edit later...)

'Stereoscopic 3D rendering' section, and 'Preferable Kodi Setting'. Settings in kodi are like that, how it should be I'm asking for settings of intel video settings... Also why isnt my hdaudio passthrough not working? Something i'm missing, not sure what.. everything seems ok RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - sarcoptic - 2016-04-14 Well I got my Dell 3050 yesterday. Just need time to finish setup before testing. I threw in an 8GB stick of RAM I had lying around and got Windows 10 LTSB all setup. Things appear to be working great, speed wise isn't too bad either. I ended up using Driver Booster to install most drivers. Their database has quite a few new drivers over what Microsoft Update and Intel Update utilities could find. I set the power options to max performance on the machine and have it set to never sleep. The plan is to leave it running 24x7 no sleep. I have a kill-a-watt lying around so I will get some measurements off that during idle/kodi processing. Looking forward to contributing where I can! Thanks again to movie78 and hdmkv for their excellent work so far! RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - hdmkv - 2016-04-14 @Skank, for audio, can you check two things:
@sarcoptic, didn't know about Driver Booster; thanks. Will add to post #1 as another option to Intel's driver utility and Windows update.

Welcome to this 3D craziness journey and I hope you are here to stay Right underneath the signature you should an icon THANK USER RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - hdmkv - 2016-04-14 Ya know, Intel PQ has really spoiled me! Just got my HiMedia Q10 Pro, the final production unit (vs. pre-production I've had until now). If not for Intel, I'd be gaga over its 3D PQ, which is excellent... but Intel PQ in comparison is excellent-er . Other players just can't match the vibrancy, rich colors, that depth, those details. And, this is with Q10 Pro having its terrific Imprex PQ engine 2.0!

That's what I said when I first try @afedchin Intel 3D MVC build and I got kill for saying that, The Himedia Imprex Engine was the best for 3D until Intel came around RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - hdmkv - 2016-04-14 Stumbled upon this, which looks cool for using Netflix on any HTPC with the Win8/10 app store version... http://sticky-ux.com/apps/NetflixRemoteController/ Only thing I'm missing w/NUC is being able to launch via Kodi Netflix (above) and Amazon VOD (just via Google browser). Advanced Launcher programs add-on is dead, and Chrome Launcher add-on also seems dead (or at least non-functional). Having above work would make NUC's more all-in-one media boxes. Doesn't appear you can navigate Windows 10's metro (or tablet) mode via a remote. Tried MCE remote and didn't work, and would prefer not to use an air-mouse. |
