Can Directshow selection method be made Zone-specific?

<< < (3/3)

Okay, did a workaround today. Selected RO HQ with additional filters, then I had to go through each file type for each zone and set JRiver Engine with automatic everything for Zone 1 (theatre) and Enhanced Video Renderer for Zone 2 (living room). Defalut renderer is set to MadVR (this is also global, if not, that would be an easy solution) so now I finally get everything playing with MadVR in the theatre and EVR on the living room LCD.

Needless to say, an unnecessarily time consuming operation, which would have been done in a few seconds if the DS selection method was zone specific, or even the default renderer.

The reason for using different renderers is that in the living room I have to adjust the colors a little, because the TV doesn't allow adjusting colors on the VGA input. And the VGA input is the only one that supports 1:1 pixel mapping, so HDMI isn't an option. In the theatre, colors has to be as neutral as possible from the PC, since it's professionally calibrated. Being able to use DXVA in the living room where I don't need the extra PQ of MadVR is an added bonus.
