Until recently, I had been forcing MC to use EVR with ROHQ due to stability issues when using MadVR. I say recently because I decided to give Mad another go on the weekend. It was by no means a bad experience but it still exposed a few issues:-
1/ Occasional black screen when playing a BD disc. I can't reproduce this at will but it happened at least twice. Both times required me to kill MC via taskmgr.
2/ Failed to enter Exclusive mode. Much less frequent than it used to be but it still occurred a couple of times. Stopping and re-starting playback solves the issue.
3/ 5x, 10x, 100x seeks do not show on-screen progress for MKV BD rips. You just get a freezed frame although the seeks do appear to be working. On-screen progress works perfectly well with EVR.
I really want to use Mad but I'm still not convinced it's worth the "effort"? Anyone else?
