I recently built a HTPC. I didn't understand what MadVR was until after it was built unfortunately. Using it I went from washed out garbage to a picture of beauty. I had a few questions. I appreciate the help.
1. I'm currently using Haswell Intel HD graphics. For MadVR I have it set for Intel QuickSync under hard acceleration. Do I want this or DVXA2 (native/copy)?
2. LAV Filters - Do I want to use these with MadR and MPC-HC?
3. I'm looking into a possible GPU upgrade. I'm limited to low-profile and 300w power requirements. I was looking into a GTX-650 (non Ti). Would it even be worth it to upgrade? I'm running Bicuic 75/Lanczos 3taps with no issues at the moment. Deinterlace is slow so I have it disabled. I should note I have a lot of SD movies I backed up to MKV. So up scaling is important.
