I just installed MC18 and I am very pleased by the quality obtained on sd sources with madvr.

Unfortunately I have big troube during DVD playback with madvr.

Either any action on DVD menu or fast forward rewind, chapter change freeze the image. I can hear as an example that I actually changed the chapter but the video freeze. I have to go out to theater mode and re enter in the movie to unfroze it ?

I have no problem neither hd sources nor with evr used as renderer.

Make sure you have 18.0.103 installed.

Yes it is the last one

New issues since yesterday.

The madvr stat are always displayed and I cannot neither switch them off nor reset them on BR discs and tv sources (direct and recorded)

For the DVD I have no more images displayed, when I try to launch a movie ...

GPU load is 0% on DVD. I have the latest version of MC 18 and last version of HD 4000 driver too.

I try to uninstall and reinstall Mc18 same issues.

I tried to change the gpu driver to a former version same issues.

Edit : I found that to works the madvr settings windows must be active. It is not very convenient but it works. Still remain the big problem of DVD playbacks

I continue with my problems even if it seems that no one is interrested to help me...

I noticed that when I launch a DVD either the screen remains black or when sometimes after 20 or 30 seconds I got an image displayed the monitor display rate has been changed from 50p to 60p.

Really don't understand what's happening an I would really appreciate some help from jriver staff...

I have installed this morning the build 104. The problem remains.

I disabled the videoclock and the automatic display setting changing option and I can have the movie displayed after 30 seconds of black screen.

When I looked at the madvr stat I noticed that it was displayed :

Movie unknown fps and movie frame interval unknown ?

Any idea to help me ?

I know it can be frustrating but I don't think no one is interested, I think most people don't have a clue.

Maybe you could try resetting madvr settings to default?

I've seen a few DVD issues as well with HQ. I'm not sure what it is, but am investigating.

But in general if Red October HQ isn't working well, please use Red October Standard.

I finally found. To avoid any issue I had to disable the hardware acceleration.

I precise that I have a core I7 3770S with an HD 4000 IGP.

To fix my madVR + DVD problem, I found it worked if I disabled the video decoding of MPEG-2 built into madVR from madVR's configuration dialog.

We're talking to madshi to see if we can solve this automatically.

It was not enabled. It seems that the problem came from the hardware acceleration. I don't understand why because people with same hardware configuration do not experienced such issue ?

Anyway with the last build no more problem even with the hardware acceleration on.

What videocard brand and model are you using?

Did you update the drivers to the latest version?

IGP HD 4000 with the latest driver

Try disabling the madvr deinterlacer.

Sebastien30200 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 06, 2013, 08:44:36 am »

I have no more problems on DVD.

It works either with madvr deinterlacer enabled or not since the last build.

However when the deinterlacer is enabled I cannot use the jinc 3 taps without getting some frame dropped.

When it is disabled I have no more frame dropped.

InflatableMouse · « **Reply #15 on:** January 06, 2013, 09:02:38 am »

Right. I guess I've lost track of the issue, what exactly is the remaining problem?

Sebastien30200 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 06, 2013, 09:30:37 am »

It is solved.

I don't know why because people with same hardware configuration didn't have this problem.

I solved it by disabling the hardware acceleration. But since the last release it works even with the accelaration on.

Weird isn't it ? Maybe Matt could try to explain.

Anyway thank you very much for your help and all my apologies for my awfull English ( I am French) which must not help you to understand my problems

Sebastien30200 · « **Reply #17 on:** January 06, 2013, 02:07:54 pm »

I just noticed that when the hardware acceleration is on the image is displayed but madvr is still note able to detect neither the frame rate nor the movie interval frame .... ?

CraigNZ · « **Reply #18 on:** January 06, 2013, 02:12:37 pm »

I do have the same problem, am running latest version (106). Many releases ago I discovered disabling h/w acceleration solved the problem. So with each new release I renable h/w acceleration and try a DVD movie .. my symptom is the dvd plays but it is very jerky. With 106 same thing, so I disable accleration and it works fine.

I also have an i7, using HD3000 .. it may be related to this hardware only. It might also be the motherboard which is an ASUS, forget which one but if important I could go get the info. I think once I tried to download the latest intel drivers and the system locked up .. had to go back to the ASUS drivers. So maybe ASUS has done somethng with the graphics interface to the chipset.

For the moment though the i7 is more than fast enough to play bluray and DVD with no real loading on the cpu. So I just leave acceleration disabled figuring that one day it will be solved. Would be interested to know though if others using core i7 processors but on a different motherboard are having the same issue.

Sebastien30200 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 06, 2013, 02:47:45 pm »

My motherboard is a gigabyte.

Finally I just found the source of the problem it is the combination of madvr deinterlacing and hardware acceleration.

When both of them are enabled DVD playback is faulty. When one of them is disabled the DVD playback is no more faulty.

However as explained when the acceleration is enabled madvr is not able to detect movie frame rate ?

Sebastien30200 · « **Reply #20 on:** January 12, 2013, 05:02:42 am »

Bump

Is there any explanation why I am not able to enable hardware acceleration and madvr deinterlacing without getting some trouble with DVD playback ? ?
