First post updated updated to new build

Testing:
When testing, please check:
render method set to PS/DXVA
scaling methods DXVA/Bicubic/Lanczos3/Spline36 and their "optimized" versions.

Please also add "AE_ENGINE = ACTIVE" to your Windows environment variables

Environment name: AE_ENGINE
Environment value: ACTIVE

Are you going to upload the proper build so we can test?

Man, don't rush thing. I suggest revert to 0821 build which I'm perfectly fine with it.

Boost volume on downmix doesn't work on that build. Since Martijn said there were audio fixes I'm hoping it's one of them.

I rarely get good result with "Boost volume on downmix" most of the time it tends to boost too much and got clipping instead. So I end up disable it anyway.

Why is this necessary? Seems to work just fine without it.

because i say so or perhaps you don't want better audio so that's fine with me

nevermind

There's a new AudioEngine in very active development....

Spline36 optimized and the other shaders can be selected now and work fine for me.
(audio works fine also)

Only thing with this build is that , I update my library on start up, this loading loops and doesn't actually update the library.
Probably this causes to hang XBMC on exit also.

Offtopic and has nothing to do with this build in particular

owkeeeeeeeee

glad I could help you.

thread is about testing HQ shaders, not about other unrelated issues.

AMD A8-5500 APU with latest driver.

All works ok, but i get best results with DXVA scaler, when watch poor quality SD material.
Can't see difference with HD.

I try motogp .ts file HD and SD

Keep on with the good work. I really like that we can watch interlaced material with xbmc.

yes I noticed.
But as you told us there were just audio updates the last time ( not shaders) I thought it might help you.
It seems not to be appreciated.

I go back to the nightlies. Good luck.

this has been merged into mainline so it will be included in nightly builds starting from September 1st

Thanks everyone for testing

short shaders-related question (didnt want to open a new thread): is it planned to add more postprocessing shaders to improve picture quality? maybe some shaders from mpc-hc like sharpen complex 2 or other?

Great news.
