Sorry, I may not have been clear, I mean files that don't play at all and then give the error "Could not play file look at the logs" or something along those lines. (sorry, not in front of the PC right now)

I understand completely that tearing is pretty much impossible to troubleshoot for the devs.

yeah. the only options under 3d with a "use application settings" checkbox are smoothvision hd anti-aliasing and anisotropic - and these are both checked by default.

I dont know what else to do - other people seem to be able to get dsplayer to work with an ATI 5670 no problems.

A lot of the other files had HORRIBLE tearing, but they had that in trunk as well, and I'm not ruling out something I've done breaking it.

Quick question, if I find a file that doesn't play, how much do you (Seb and tiben) care? Like do you want debug logs saying this file didn't play, or that file didn't play? I don't want to waste time that you could be fixing other issues.

Thanks again!
I do care about sample as long as they are playing with ffplay
**you can get the last version of ffplay http://ffmpeg.arrozcru.org/autobuilds/
get the static 32 for the ffplay.exe
to start a file just use a command prompt and enter
example
Code:
ffplay.exe "c:\downloads\videosamples.m2ts"
If its playing correctly their something to do to fix the tearing if its not well we will need to wait its fixed in ffmpeg


- fincheresque - 2010-06-09

Thanks, I'll try that out. It's not a huge deal, once in a while I run into a file that plays with DVDPlayer, but not DSPlayer.

On a side note, I just finished building a release, and other than it crashing on launch if I use my existing XBMC UserData folder (probably a trunk/database issue), using a portable, fresh install, it works really well. Some stuttering that is probably not DSPlayer related.

How about using MPC-HC instead? It uses ffmpeg as well.

I've also encountered lately files that wouldn't play, and instead a dialog box popped up and ask me to check the debug log. These file play fine in both dvdplayer and MPC-HC.

Here's a debug log if you are interested. http://pastebin.com/v8rNRWna

Im asking ffplay to be sure their no other codecs than ffmpeg to be used.
The problem is coming from CFGLoader InsertSourceFilter im not sure about the name of the function i just started but its really close to this if its not exactly this one.

When the filters is inserted the player query an interface called IFileSourceFilter and from this interface your loading the file in this case it fails for an unknown reason.
I think its a character in the path "Z:\Pictures\ImageMixer3\'09_12_06_01\M2U00181.MPG"
can you verify without the ' in your path too see if its loading properly.

Hi Tiben,

Thanks for your time. If you look at the debug.log, I loaded a file in the same directory named M2U00182.MPG just before I loaded M2U00181.MPG and that file did not have a problem at all. That's what's so confusing to me.

Anyway, I moved the file to Z:\Videos\MU200181.MPG and still got the same error. Huh

I have similar issues where DSPlayer is unable to load files over the network when using Samba or FTP. The debug log says the filter is unable to load the file. When I map the share to a drive letter it works perfectly.

Is this a bug in DSPlayer?

And here's the DTS-HD sample.

I try your two sample files, and I works really fine here. I can reproduce your issue.

PS: My keyboard just die five minutes ago Eek I won't be able to code for the next few days, time to buy a new one Oo

can you provide a sample for this file


- oldpainless - 2010-06-09

Seb,

Looks like you guys have made huge progress (shaders = awesome)....but, for me, playback is jerky (not sure if it's an I or P frame issue)...trired all combos....

- Bipolar Bear - 2010-06-09

Just want to say the new version fixes my blank screen problem. I can confirm its using the gpu because my cpu is sitting around 7% during playback, but playback is jerky to the point of being distracting and unwatchable, changing vsync setting and full screen windows setting makes no difference. Again this is using my ati 5670 card, which should have more than enough grunt to handle any hd content. I also updated my catalyst drivers to 10.5.
