Blu Ray menus no longer work
« on: October 07, 2020, 11:47:44 am »

I usually watch Blu Ray straight from the movie, but today I wanted to try the menus again.

Strangely, contrary to the past, they do not work: I hear the audio but a flashing green screen appears.
After several tests I discovered that by removing madvr, the menus work: what does it depend on? Is there any recently added settings that worked in the past?

I just tested a bunch of BD Menus (1080p and UHD) and they all worked fine.  Couple of Q's to help narrow it down:
- What version of MC are you using?
- What GPU & Driver are you using?
- Have you made any changes to madVR or is it just "stock" settings as per the version shipped with JRiver? 
- Try checking / unchecking in Tools --> Options --> Video the "Hardware accelerate..." and "Optimize hardware.." Options. 
- If you are using Tools --> Options --> Video --> Display "Display Settings automatic change mode" then set it to OFF for testing.

Of course I have MC 27 but the problem also occurs with MC 26. Currently I have an RX580 with drivers 20.4.

As for madvr I have replaced the version provided by JRiver with 92.17 and build 112.

Hardware acceleration and hardware optimization are checked while "display settings automatic change mode" is on Custom: today I try to default these 3 things as well as replace madvr with the basic version.

However, until a few months ago with the above settings, apart from the older GPU drivers, everything worked.

Try RO Std.  If that works, then it is something with your custom madVR Setup.

If it also affects MC26 then I'm not sure what would've caused it, we didn't change anyhting in regard to that for a while in MC26 - while we did start updating some things in MC27.

Eventually I found that it depended on LAV Filters. I remembered that in the past in Video Mode instead of RO HQ I had selected Custom by modifying LAV Filters to improve the performance of 4K 60hz files.
I restored everything by letting Madvr manage the LAV Filters, and now everything works, apart from the 4K 60 hz files but it is an absolutely marginal problem.

Sorry if I wasted your time :-[

I take this opportunity to ask something about LAV Filters. If I let them confide automatically to MC he sets me D3D11 (I think) and this does not allow me to let Madvr detect the black bands and, for me who have a 21: 9 format screen, it is a problem.

If I manually set the LAV Filters by selecting DXVA2 copy back, I solve the problem of the black bands but the other files mkv, avi etc. they don't work: how should i fix?

Thanks for your help
