Sorry, UI error was the result of me having customized Confluence (and thus requiring me to update the copy and re-apply my changes).
Don't see any reference to a fixed build in the first post or Wiki, but I can probably wait until RC3. The issue is still only when "prefer VAAPI" is enabled, correct?
However, the PAR error I referenced is really messing up video. With the 10% HQ scaler setting, my default preference of Lanczos3 now changes to Nearest Neighbor for 1080p played at 1080p. But due to the PAR issue, it's still rescaling the video at all times (it thinks 1920 wide should be played at 1919, then the 1% aspect error allowance gets it back to 1920).
But even still, and SPECIFICALLY on videos that are not the full 1920x1080, but rather cropped vertically (for example, 1920x800), Nearest Neighbor is causing a noticeable doubling of vertical lines about every 100 pixels or so, despite the fact that it's ultimately playing the file back at its native resolution. Switching to Bilinear results in noticeable softening of the video compared to Nearest Neighbor. Removing the 10% HQ scaler setting lets me use Lanczos3 which looks better, but clearly it's still messing around with the video and isn't giving me 1:1 reproduction.
