oldpainless Wrote:Seems as tho your problem was the same as mine....winxp, latest builds no go.....so, went to control panel, deleted all of the c++ dis packages....reinstalled...BINGO!!

Small bug with latest build seb...if you pause the movie, then press play....dsplayer goes upto 100% of cpu and the movie is still paused and you have to press ff for it to start playing again.

tiben20 Wrote:Yeah directshow can be a pain in the ass for the user and the coders. But like someone said in an earlier post this is worth it. Dxva2 from dvdplayer is using 10% more the core than the dsplayer from the test that i done. Its still a big gain in performance. With every question your answering since the start of the player im happy to spend some time to get your request done.

The feature need more testing, but the new build might be released by tonight!

Stay tuned

oldpainless Wrote:Hi Guys,

Does anyone know of a way of using coreavc AND something else for post-processing? ie sharpening.....and I know about ffdshow, but I prefer coreavc.

Cheers

UPDATE: For anyone that wants to use CoreAvc for very smooth playback (make sure Haali is installed)...here's my settings:

bananaman Wrote:Thanks for the coreavc settings, will try to combine with ffdshow audio.

When i first tried dsplayer build i copied over user files from xbmc camelot for libraries etc.

Found out after reinstall that it caused problems. Can i copy over user files so that i dont need to rescan library\settings etc?

omega2k1 Wrote:thanks, basically is what i was looking for. now i can tell that dsplayer is working, cpu is around 10% instead of 90% thanks

oldpainless Wrote:Yeah.....uninstall that build....keep userdata folder (it will ask you when you uninstall).....the dsfilterconfig.xml I've posted above goes in C:\Program Files\XBMC\system\players\dsplayer, then add this advancedsettings.xml into C:\Program Files\XBMC\userdata -

<advancedsettings>
<video>
<defaultplayer>dsplayer</defaultplayer>
</video>
</advancedsettings>

Lastly, before you reinstall,it pays to goto control panel/install/uninstall programs and make sure that all MS c++ dis packages are un-installed...then install the latest build as portable.

Hope that helps.

bananaman Wrote:Thanks, did install a previous build some days ago and changed to ffdshow audio\video. When using userdata from camelot i got no sound video.

Will try again with new portable.

Uninstalling MS c++ will that cause problems with camelot (not installed as portable) Would want to keep that for now while testing.

oldpainless Wrote:Tiben/Seb.......just a thought....given we are now upto 182 pages.....it's a lot to ask folks to read 182 pages to find their solution..is it time to start a wiki on this?....you know....like if your using winX...here's what you need, if you want to use ffdshow/coreavc, here's the xml and what you do etc?

Make any sense?

And as you guys know...I'm not even using dxva....what attracted me to the dsplayer build is the config options (coreavc etc)....although my revo arrives tomorrow!.... there's still a lot of folks without gpu acceleration that want the dsplayer build because of the coreavc option etc.
