Yes, I'm sure.

A quick video demo?

I would be interested in this as well, as it sure doesn't work here. No HDR sample files kick TV into HDR mode. Unless it is only HDR UHD Blu-ray Discs which work? I don't have a drive to test.

[looun]

Yes, I'm sure.

PowerDVD is on sale for $50 until Tomorrow.

I would love to see a youtube demo of a W10 PC using PowerDVD playing back UltraHD BLURAYS and HDR files and the HDR tax triggering a compatible TV.

PowerDVD 16 is on sale not 17.

Yes, I'm sure.

PowerDVD 17 isn't out yet.

[dchabby]

Fwiw, HDR is supported with PDVD v.17 and nVidia passing high bitrate audio without W10 creators edition due to release this spring.

silly question - if you buy v.16 now do you get to upgrade to v.17 when released ?

That will be a question for CyberLink

It is. If you have a subscription you are covered it will activate.

Depends what you buy. If you buy version 16 outright then no. If you subscribe to their annual deal then you do.

Can anyone tell me if the Zidoo X9S native player supports forced subtitles both with MKV and ISO?

[hdmkv]

Yes, but in my case, I have to preface that by saying I only have movie-only MKV's and ISO's. For MKV's, the subtitle is marked as 'forced'. I edit the header info via MKVMerge. For ISO's, I build the ISO via tsMuxeR with only the forced subtitle track (PGS) embedded (like with Na'vi parts in Avatar).

Thanks for reply. Do your mkvs only contain forced subs? I keep English track plus forced subs track if applicable. They are marked as forced and work fine on kodi player but not external player. For my 3D ISO's I couldn't figure out how to embed only forced track in DVDFab. I'll check out tsMuxeR

[hdmkv]

Yes, only forced sub, no other subs in MKV's. Could be native/external doesn't support forced and is just displaying whatever the first/default sub is. Let me do a test later today and report back on both MKV's, and full ISO's... may need to update the a/v tests spreadsheet in post #1.

Hi all,
I use a Pi3 for 3D MVC and love it, but have read that windows builds are the best for PQ, depth etc.
I do have an old NUC 3217BY with hd graphics 4000 upstairs doing lots of other tasks but was thinking about bringing it down to the 3D projector to have a tinker. This would be quite an effort as it's currently hooked up to satellite tv etc, which is why I haven't done it so far!
Just interested whether any one has tried the afedchin build on this model. Is it powerful enough to cope with 3D MVC? If yes, is the PQ a step up from the Pi? In many ways if you say no, I won't be disappointed :-)

BTW, a few right eye first movies not on the list on the first page:
Epic, Oz - The Great and the Powerful and Prometheus.

Can't compare it with a Pi3, never used one of those, but I can say what the Core i3-3217U with HD 4000 iGP can do, and it will do great when displaying MVC 3D (and more). Used it for years before switching to a Broadwell setup (just to loose the 24p bug, that was not really annoying, but hey ), and recently I upgraded to Kaby Lake regarding supporting the latest video formats.

Much appreciated. May have to give it a try just to see the difference!!! 24p bug? Does it not handle 23.976 smoothly then?

It's not a biggie for most of the time, but it's just not perfect. If I didn't point it out, you maybe didn't noticing it at all. Just give it a go.
