Now Playing mvpmcx2 The Director's Cut

[-stattik-]

Could you try with the blue skin specifically defined as the NMT skin.

I ran the latest version of mvpmcx2 (Apr-16) using the blue skin and experienced the same issue. After playing an AVI, PVRX2 restarts and the screen goes black.

Do you still have the logs? I will need these to get to the bottom of this.

I have updated the d/l file again, I made some timing changes and I reinitialize the libraries after using the PCH player so that the problems with the blank screens could be reduced.

The problem with --mono-h264 has been fixed.

Attached. The first time I played the file it existed cleanly. The second time it didn't.

Thanks is that from the new version?

That was from the 4/16 version. I just tested the 4/18 version. I tried it five time and it worked fine.

I believe though that FIT and FULL are swapped.

Here's what I see:

Code:

PCH
    Fit
        4:3    Pillarboxed
        16:9    Fills screen
        2.35    Letterboxed(correctly)
    Full
        4:3    Fills Screen
        16:9    Fills Screen
        2.35    Fills Screen
    Crop
        4:3    Cropped to 16:9
        16:9    Fills Screen
        2.35    Cropped to 16:9
MVPMCX2
    Fit
        4:3    Fills Screen
        16:9    Letterboxed
        2.35    ?
    Full
        4:3    Pillarboxed
        16:9    Fills Screen
        2.35    ?
    Crop
        4:3    Cropped to 16:9
        16:9    Fills Screen
        2.35    ?

-stattik- thanks for the extra feedback. I understand where you are coming from but what I don't want to to see is 16:9 in Full running letter-boxed. The root of the problem is not knowing the actual aspect ratio. If sub was to pass this information I could match them up.

I agree. I just pointed out that MVPMCX2(full) behaves more like PCH(fit) than PCH(full). If it will all get straighten out once the aspect is passed to you then great.

Just tried the 4/18 version & skipping is off by several minutes (and this is a analog recording - from my PVR-500 - with constant rate of 9 Mbps...)

Any particular logs you'd like? I'm going back to the 4/16 version to see if it worked there...

UPDATE: must be something with this particular recording. 4/16 version doesn't skip to the right places very well - tried to playback on the PC & noticed that PVR-500 recordings don't play back (PVRX2.exe crashes when I try to play those - never noticed this before, because I rarely if ever playback on the PC)

UPDATE2: Ran VideoRedo's quickstream fix on the recording & all is well - so this doesn't appear to be an issue w/ mvpmcx2.

GBPVR still crashes on PVR-500 recordings, but that's an issue for another forum...

Looks good. I jumped back & forth between mpeg & h264 files & it all worked fine. And no black screens after Stop. Thanks for your work on this.
