I cannot make Media Center to play DVD-discs with madVR... I tried to set madVR as default renderer and set it to be renderer for DVD-files, but I still get EVR when playing DVDs... Is there a way to make it work in Media Center? It works quite well with mpc-hc with ffdshow video renderer set to DVD-decoding and skipping menus... Is this planned for future versions (when LAV-Video supports DVD-decoding and opensource dvdnavigator get stable?) or is there some sort of reason to have EVR doing DVD-rendering?

madVR doesn't currently support DVD.  DVD requires a renderer to support multiple input pins but madVR only supports one input pin.

Hopefully someday.

You can use the free program "makeMKV" to convert your ripped DVDs (Video_TS) format to MKV. Then MadVR will work.

There are hacks to make it work, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Then of course you'd lose the ability to use RO, which just isn't worth it.

I just recently started doing this and it works great.

You can also use makeMKV to rip directly to mkv from the DVD.

OK, then I will be happy with EVR.... Howabout PAL-Speeddown? Does EVR support it? I used it a lot with madVR+ReClock combo, can I have same results using 24hz refresh ratio for PAL-video and VideoClock? I wish I could get access to VideoClock configuration, so I can "force" it to do it if it doesnīt do it automatic...

I watch a lot of movies (DVDs) that I borrow from my friends, so I donīt want to rip every one of these discs (I watch about 400-films per year, which includes about 150-borrowed ones...). But I quess I have to wait for madshi gets madVR to work flawlessly with DVDs...

VideoClock works with EVR and madVR, and handles PAL slowdown.

You should use VideoClock instead of ReClock in my opinion.

I've recently tried using VideoClock instead of reclock.  However, I get glitches when I try to do PAL slowdown.  I use MC to change the display frequency to 23 hz  when it plays a 25fps video.  I'm also using MadVR and have tried setting and unsetting the option to treat 25fps videos as 24fps videos.  MC switches the frequency correctly, but the video is playing like a video with bad IVTC.  The pitch of the audio seems correct though.  Reclock is able to slow down the same video correctly.  Is there anything I should be looking for in my setup?

I had same issues with MC... mpc-hc plays fine with EVR+ReClock and madVR+ReClock, but MC doesnīt (or I am missing something again...)

Is there a setting to make PAL slowdown work?  I haven't found anything.  If the frame rate is set to 25Hz for the file in the library, it definitely doesn't work.  Do we need to change every PAL file to 23.98.  I have tried this and it doesn't give smooth playback.  What about PAL files which are supposed to play at 25Hz like recorded TV?
