I only see DXVA, do I have the wrong version of DirectX installed?

Having issues with 1080p mkv's where it'll just go to a black screen and I just hear audio

DXVA is DXVA2 depending on your OS
XP - DXVA
Vista / 7 - DXVA2

Strange, I've got Windows 7 but only option I see under render method is DXVA, not DXVA2.

Plays fine on build svn 27527

Seems like you haven't enabled DXVA (10% CPU usage on 4 cores)

I just installed the latest trunk, all HD files play fine (H264), however, playing a simple dvd (vob files or straight from disc) is not smooth at all. Lots of stuttering, seems something to do with dxva upscaling. I get the best results selecting bilinair, but its still not smooth. Under linux i could select lancos optimized without any hickup.... my machine is a pov ion 330 (like the asrock). Is hardware upscaling already supported with these builds, and of nu or not yet working fine, can i disable the upscaling somewhere in order to play dvd's for now?

Thanks!

Wondering why I'm having 1080p issues though. Just a black screen with the audio stuttering.

same here -but no audio either !


- elupus - 2010-02-07

The scalers make no difference when using dxva


- Buckster - 2010-02-07

elupus - thats interesting as only if I force to Bilinear do I get anything like smooth playback (thats on content that will play)

in any of the others dropped frames, and odd 1/2 frame rates like 12.5fps etc

does that mean DXVA decoding is not working ?


- elupus - 2010-02-07

Buckster:
Yes most likely

There is no DVXA2 option. DVXA1 is not supported so the option "DVXA" is DVXA2 only.

I have issues with the screen being only 1/4 size with .mkv's....(Only a small section on the top left on my screen is playing the video)

Only happens on AVC material, other than that it's looking really good. Win7 x64, Nvidia 8800GTS 512Mb.

Has anyone else seen that issue?

27527 build and still no

with advancedsettings.xml file still black screen and audio loops.

without advansedsettings.xml file, i get green screen when playing h264 files, and then if use CPU rendering, video playback is stuttering, it looks like it keeps droping half the frames.

so far DXVA acceleration a big let down
