Title: video renderer issue
Post by: galahad1974 on August 17, 2007, 08:17:11 am
     Im having video quality issues, and ive been trying to look through the forums and research before just asking here, but i cant find the answer. my image was very pixelated when playing any non HD file (mostly divx or xvid files). well after installing cccp and tweaking other things to no avail i've discovered that the problem goes away if i switch to the legacy renderer. but then i get washed out colors. If i use the enhanced renderer i get good color and sharp image but picture leftovers in the black areas beside my image. with or the other renderers give me very poor quality video. Can someone help me understand how these renderers differ and take a guess at whats going on here? Thanks in advance for the help.

There are some issues with EVR right now, but I believe you'll be pleased with the next build that comes to release.

What video hw do you have?

Just for what its worth, the bug in the Enhanced Video renderer is caused by resizing when a video is playing. Pause & resume the video with CTRL + P and the picture leftovers will be gone :) (Using the pause button won't work, as it resizes the video slightly)

if you are using ffdshow go into the output option in the Video configuration window, then deselect the "YV12" option and select "Set interlace flag in output media type" to "Method: Bob"

I was having the same issue and this worked, let me know if it works for you.

Good luck
