So when I start a video I have to hit the aspect button twice to get the picture to how it should be. Happened on 720p and 576p video.
No, I am pretty sure that code is the same. Try changing your mode on the PCH to "Fit To Screen", maybe you changed it there.
Note: A dongle is the entire filesystem including linux needed for the MVP. This is just an executable.

Actually the HE-AAC code doesn't get called by the demuxer during FF/RWD from GBPVR. These trick modes have always been pretty well useless with HD, but I tested an SD sample and it worked as I expected and I also confirmed the new logic wasn't called.
Also note this "useless" functionality was replaced by the short skip on the PC going back to PVRx2.exe and was only available on the PCH/MVP. In NPVR only the short skip will be available and combined with the improved timing based seek it is a big improvement.
Other than that I assume everything worked, so I have enough positive reports to update the default mvpmcx2.
Positive report on BBC HD now, so that's all of the UK HD channels working fine.........when I'm not trying to get the PCH to do too many things at once :-) Will try and find some surround stuff to test.
psycik Wrote:So mvpmcx takes what is the default on the PCH? I know with the older version I had it started with the correct scaling.
Yes, it has since 2009. In fact you don't need any command line options for normal use. You can use your own command line to override the PCH defaults if you's like.

Great thanks for the positive news. Even without HE-AAC, mvpmcx2 requires more CPU because it uses a software demux. I designed it this way for flexibility and that is one reason I could implement HE-AAC, while Syabas are restricted to what the firmware provides.
As Martin already knows, but for others here, I got great success on LiveTV and recorded programs on the A100 here in sub-ville. We are indeed lucky to have you slaving for us, Martin.
What a great improvement you achieved here Martin. I am in awe!
I actually knew about the new beta release one day before it was released, and still did not manage to give it a spin until yesterday. Shame on me.
As far as I can tell it works perfectly on all HE-AAC stuff I have here, recorded and Live.
Thumbs up!
Btw, did you implement the demux code from specs or did you find some code to build upon?
