Lav Madvr guide?? - Page 13

I am using the original Microsoft Media Center remote. I remapped the exit key to VKk_Browser_Back the VK-Back suggested in the Media Browser Knowledge base did not work for. I and am using the standard Media Browser external player command string {0} /fullscreen /close

MPC is set to exit fullscreen in fullscreen settings under view options.

So the best place to get mpchc is xvidvideo.ru, correct? I thought for awhile it was at sourceforge but I went there and the latest stable version is .2827 from jan then I went to the download page and they have a newer one from march. I looked at the one I had and it was .2903 (maybe the march sourceforge?) then I went to xvid.ru last night and got the new release .3251. So is casmir666 not working on the sourceforge version anymore?

You can also get it from: http://xhmikosr.1f0.de/index.php

Are there any benefits of using the DX11 option in madVR?

Thanks for the response but this did not work.

I think the problem is that MPC-HC exits but madVR keeps running.

If I hit exit on my Harmony remote the video ends on the plasma TV but the audio continues. If I go to task manager (control-alt-deleted) under applications MPC_HC does not show up. However MPC-HC does appear under processes and if I end the MPC_HC process the audio stops.

So, my problem is that madVR is not exiting with MPC-HC.

The solution for me is to change the audio renderer in option-playback-output (madVR) to 6: Direct Sound: Reatek HDMI Output (ATI HDMI Audio) (00200000)

This solution did not work

Renethx are you recommending to make the prefered external video filter ffdshow video Decoder and then double click ffdshow video Decoder and check deinterlace under ffdshow?

Yes. I added screenshots of ffdshow Video Decoder configuration in the previous post.

Sorry, missed that. I found your screenshots and eventually hit ffdshow controls and got it set as you pictured.

Thanks

When I exit MPC-HC the video ends but the audio keeps running and I do not return to media browser. Can I use system restore to the last day MPC-HC was exiting properly?

System restore may or may not work. How about this: uninstall MPC HomeCinema, then delete the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Gabest\\Media Player Classic.

Thanks for the solution. I will give that a try unless someone can suggest a workable key setup in MPC-HC for my remote.

Currently, when I hit the exit key on my harmony MPC-HC video stops but the audio keeps going and therefore media browser does not regain control. Under options-keys the exit key is set to browser_back. This use to work but does not now.

I can end MPC-HC with control-alt-delete and closing MPC-HC in Task Manager processes.

If I right click MPC-HC with a mouse and click exit everything stops and control reverts to media browser.

Anyone else having some major problems with auto-refresh rate switching in madVR w/ MPC-HC?

I turned off MPC-HC's auto-rr-switching so as not to cause conflict, entered '1080p23' in the madvr settings under 'display modes' => 'list all display modes madVR may switch to.'

I get a lot of ghosting on 1080p23, along with a greenish band at the absolute bottom of the screen.

When I remove that option, the banding and ghosting disappear (but, unfortunately, it is then displaying at 60Hz rather than 24)

I also have reclock, but I only use reclock audio renderer for LPCM playback, and all the expected filters (and no unexpected ones) are showing up when I right-click during playback.

Any ideas?

Yup. You are most likely using MPC-HC Video decoder. You have to change the video decoder to something else because madVR does not support the default MPC-HC video decoder

Thanks!

Will try something else...

Do I need to have PDVD9 installed to get access to this decoder, if I DL PDVD9 can I just register the decoder or point mpc to it?

If you install PDVD9, then CyberLink Video Decoder (PDVD9) is already a registered filter and you can use it freely in any DirectShow player. The same is true for PDVD10. In PDVD11, you have to register CLCvd.ax manually. BTW CLCvd.ax alone does not work.

I am using cyberlink power DVD in ham mode with madvr , this is an awesome combination for my amd card but I have a problem.
When watching 1080p movies I have a green line at the bottom of my screen.
How could we possible fix that?

It's caused by passing the video to ffdshow. I crop the video in MC16 to remove the line.

I think someone else said this happened when using mpc video decoder with madvr,

Nope. See my previous reply.

When you upgrade MPC-HC to the latest version, do you just install the new version over the old version, or do you have to uninstall the old version first?

Also, do you get the the full version with installer and BE (whatever that is)?

There seems to be about five different downloads available for the latest MPC-HC. Which one is correct?

To be sure I always uninstall previous version. Then download it from the site I mentioned xvidvideo.ru, it's the most up to date. Im not insure what BE is. I have a x64 bit system but I use the 32 bit(x86) version. I download the Installer version (as opposed to zip) that is x86 or the x86 and 64.

I know there was talk, but did anyone ever create a free guide for correctly setting up MPC-HC with Madvr and LAV CUVID? I'm pretty sure I have 98% of MPC-HC configured correctly, but if there's any tips, tricks, or cool tweaks out there I'd like to know about them.

I'm not sure if it's correct or not but someone did mention this a few posts below.

BE from XvidVideo.RU with mpc_toolbar_round_black_32 is easy to use and good looking as a standalone player.

Trust me, it's caused by passing the video from cyberlink to ffdshow no matter what player you use. I spent quite a while looking into this annoyance. The only way I found to get around it is to crop it.

so is there a guide at all .. i went through about 9 pages and didnt find any...

Okay, I have read through this entire thread, I installed Madvr, lav cuvid, lav splitters, mpc-hc, any it all works fine as a stand alone player, minus the fact that it doesn't do 3d, but that's not a problem. The problem is I can't seem to get it to integrate with media browser very well. It will play mkvs, although getting it to exit back into media browser is another story. For some reason when I pic a bluray rip it will just on the player and sit there. Previously I was (am) using TMT5 (anxiously awaiting 5.1) and Daemon tools to watch my rips. Just wondering if anyone is using this with media browser or what to use it with.

Thanks.

I'm curious... Isn't an mkv file a blu-ray (or DVD) rip? Are you referring in your second sentence to another type of ripped format?

I think it is going to be difficult to get it to integrate seamlessly with WMC/MB since it was not really designed to be used with WMC.

I think if you are wanting to use this then your best best is to use it as a stand alone player.

I am still working on some things with a few other people as far as tweaks go for the WMC/MB user. So far with mixed results. For one I am having a hard time finding a good Nvidia driver to play nice with my older DLP that still is new enough for Madvr.
