deinterlacing is done automaticly. of cause DVD playback is fully supported.

BTW. DVD movies shouldn't be deinterlaced they should be IVTC because they are 99% telecine not interlaced and madVR support this too.

aracnoz, could this be finally the way to see your work "properly" integrated into Kodi? http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=237686

i'd like to know what they think about DSPlayer today, without paying much attention to all the questions strictly related to the code but with the focus on the final result as a concept

there are some many ways to do the same thing, actually dsplayer it's already done as a different player, nothing it's touched in dvdplayer and everything in kodi works as in the official release with the original code

the main question for me it's if the kodi team want madVR in Kodi or not, if they think that there could be advantages by supporting madVR, then there are infinite possibilities to do that, but i cannot answer for them...

with my work i think to have demonstrated that it's possible to use madVR at full potential without compromises and without to loose the original Kodi experience, so me with my tv and my remote without any trayicon/windows etc etc to configure

Agreed: "Manage madVR settings with Kodi" would be better.

Yes, that would work too.

i can see your point if we extract only that option from the DSPlayer page

but there is the video renderer section that it's the parent of some sub options that are strictly related to the selected renderer, maybe you missing this particular because the viderenderer selection it's greyed out since i had to interrupt evr/vmr support because dx11...

i think that it should be useless to repeat madvr for each options...

Code:

Video renderer: madshi video renderer (madVR)
- manage settings with kodi
- delay playback until render queue is full
- use in fullscreen (exclusive mode)
- force to exit from fullscreen before stop

Code:

Video renderer: madshi video renderer (madVR)
- manage madVR settings with kodi
- delay madVR playback until render queue is full
- use madVR in fullscreen (exclusive mode)
- force madVR to exit from fullscreen before stop

I'm having trouble watching http streams with DSPlayer from one specific tv channel using the Elisa Viihde TV add-on.

Everything works fine using DVDPlayer but with DSPlayer I only get audio with a black screen.

When trying to play the stream, debug log prints the following sequence of lines repeated many times over:

T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [mpegts] parser not found for codec dvb_teletext, packets or times may be invalid
T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [h264] non-existing SPS 0 referenced in buffering period
T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [h264] non-existing SPS 0 referenced
T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [h264] non-existing SPS 0 referenced in buffering period

T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [h264] decode_slice_header error
T:328 ERROR: ffmpeg[148]: [h264] no frame!

Would this be a DSPlayer, add-on or perhaps LAV filter issue? Just trying to figure out who to report this to, in case it could be fixed. As I said, with DVDPlayer it works, so I assume it's not the add-on (?).

sorry but i cannot help you with "Elisa Viihde TV add-on" because a subscription is required to make it work and without reproduce the issue it's impossible to me do anything

That this is true, because the line 'Video renderer: madshi video renderer (madVR)' is a dark color one does also not have a clear idea the next setting is related to the same thing. I'm not suggesting you change all those settings to include madVR by the way, only the first setting 'manage settings with kodi'.

Given what you have just said, another option would be to change the dark color line 'Video renderer: madshi video renderer (madVR)' to 'madVR video renderer settings' or ''Video renderer settings for madVR' and have it in a bright color and then leave all the settings under it as they are now. You could also add the line (like under audio renderer) directly below ' - DVDPlayer merits'. Would this work better for you?

DSPlayer will get more chance to be included in Kodi if it will be implemented as fully isolated component like DVDPlayer -> VideoPlayer will be. Please follow to this forum http://forum.kodi.tv/forumdisplay.php?fid=240

Understood, I think I'll ask about it from the add-on devs.

Two other things related to the said add-on, which may or may not be specific to it (can't really say because I'm no expert):

1) "Play using..." can't be used to override the default player, i.e. Kodi will always use the player that is set as default instead. The odd thing is that using playercorefactory works perfectly fine to set either DVDPlayer or DSPlayer as default; it's just impossible to manually override the setting in the 1% of cases where DVDPlayer would be required for proper playback.

2) Is there any hack/setting (or could one be made, perhaps via advancedsettings?) to revert DSPlayer's handling of aspect ratios in "Normal" view mode to the one that was still used in the September build? Currently, only DVDPlayer can handle it properly, whereas previously DSPlayer worked perfectly fine too.

Again, I'm not sure if these are strictly related to this one specific add-on (seems like it?) or if someone else might be experiencing these issues too.

So I haven't quite kept track the past few months... Is it possible to use SVP with the DSPlayer madVR renderer?
If not, when will the EVR renderer be unlocked again so I can use FFDShow + SVP as before?

Cheers

Would be happy to see EVR working again as I simply need DS to use broadcom video decoder in my system.

Sorry, another noob question. With Kodi DSPlayer set up if I play a video it seems I cannot see the kodi player gui overlay, if i hit 'info' for example? Is it possible to have the kodi gui player controls/info window etc available when using dsplayer?

The GUI should be visible when you play anything. The madVR settings window is hidden under the icon for Video Settings. Nothing can be done about that.

You can create a direct shortcut to Video Settings by adding an entry to your keyboard.xml (keymap):

<keymap>
<FullScreenVideo>
<keyboard>
<home>ActivateWindow(123)</home>
</keyboard>
</FullScreenVideo>
</keymap>

"home" is an example key. You can change this to any key of your choice.

Thanks, doing a fresh install of kodi fixed everything. Unfortunately the integrated graphics on my skylake i5 6500 are not fast enough to do any of the interesting scaling in madvr at 4k resolution.

Ok, it's as I suspected. With the way VideoPlayer is shaping up, DSPlayer could be one of several video playback add-ons, for Windows only.

BTW. DVD movies shouldn't be deinterlaced they should be IVTC because they are 99% telecine not interlaced and madVR support this too.

Are you saying DVD movies are being automatically interlaced and they shouldn't be? Or is this related to a setting in madVR?

You brought up a deinterlacing option in another thread that I didn't understand.

[balkerman]

Hey guys. I'm on the latest release and have found there is a about a 1-2 second period after the refresh rate change in which the audio is playing but kodi still displays the library view with the info overlay. Everthing else ia working fine. Is this a know issue? Any recommended fixes....

[LePousson]

I have asked a question several days ago and nobody replied to me, even after 2 messages I posted to request a reply ...

Can someone tell me where and what I should modify to make that Kodi DSPlayer would play DVD ISO files and would also activate a deinterlace filter ??

Thanks to take a short time to help me with that ...

Hello everyone. I just started using the DSPlayer port of Kodi and so far I am really enjoying it. The one problem that I can't seem to figure out has to do with skipping chapters in DVD rips that are in a folder structure. If I make DVDPlayer the default player it recognizes the chapters and I can skip backwards and forwards. However, this is not the case with DSPlayer as the default. I tried searching the forum to see if anyone else has reported this issue but I didn't much. Any ideas on whether this is a known issue and whether or not there are workarounds besides setting up a rule to play DVD content with DVDPlayer? Thanks!
