Thanks tiben, your work is awesome.

Frankly, you don't need "red/green lines to see if you have judder or not"... or tearing for that matter... if you have them, you will know because the picture anomalies will drive you absolutely crazy because you see them. And if you don't see noticeable, apparent glitches, then don't worry about it. Really it's that simple. Let your eyes be the judge, not some digital tool...

Cheers

Let's try from another side. I've downloaded and installed the following file: XBMCSetup-20110430-caa7295-dx_video.exe. Is that correct one?

Would like to know this too, download links are broken..

I got the one you mentioned working, try setting your ffdshow "DirectShow Control" Merit higher.

Also this is the version of ffdshow I used, http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/SVN%20builds%20by%20XhmikosR/MSVC2010%20builds/ffdshow_rev3817_20110412_xhmikosr_MSVC2010.exe/download

I am also having the same issue. I did download the XBMCSetup-20110430-caa7295-dx_video.exe, latest ffdshow tryout and installed them in my machine. I made MPC-HC to work with ffdshow, but when I run the XBMC it still uses the internal codec. The internal codec couldn't handle mpeg2 movies and m2ts movies properly (toomuch video artifacts). The same videos plays very well in MPC. I would really appreciate any help in making the ffdshow to work with XBMC (any config file to tinker with?? Changing ffdshow "DirectShow Control" Merit higher didn't fix it).

ENV: Windows 7 64bit
ffdshow 64bit

Here is the error message I see in the log file.

For my part, I have always problems with image tearing with this xbmc version. As MCP is the only one to use DXVA without tearing, I gave a higher merit to their codec but XBMC always tells me that ffdshow-DXVA (and still tears image ).

Do you see the ffdshow application on the taskbar when you launch/play movie in XBMC? For me, I don't see it with XBMC but it comes up when i use Media player classic.

I don't know how hard it is to use DSPlayer (haven't tried it before). I am planning to give it a try until this one matures. Have you tried DSPlayer before?

Sorry for the possibly dumb question, but will this or a further iteration allow me to use reclock? Even as an audio output filter?

- tiben20 - 2011-05-12 14:26

Is there any preference for the way you want the filters loading to be made this time.
right now i made it quite simple

Code:

<rules>

  <video>

    <rule codec="mpeg4">

      <path></path>

      <guid>{008BAC12-FBAF-497B-9670-BC6F6FBAE2C4}</guid>

    </rule>

  </video>

</rules>

this would load the guid from the registry instead of using a specified path.
Of course this time i didn't base the rules on file extension which was a mistake i made for dsplayer in the first place.

This is a good question. The way it's working right now for the audio codec you have to chose from the gui the audio renderer you want to use with your audio codec. (This include of course reclock and all other registered audio renderer on your system)

Thanks,

Those will be fixed since lavfsplitter maintained by nevcairel and created by me based on the current code of dscodec i will just update my code to his change. This will fix many problem in the loading of the codecs.

So just to be clear, I can use Reclock right now by picking it as the audio renderer in the GUI?
