Missing OSD when playing back some recordings

[nkh]

Hey, these last couple of weeks I have been missing the OSD when I play some recordings. The recordings that are missing the OSD also stutters sometimes, the recordings that work with the OSD plays smoothly. There doesn't seem to be any consistance in which recordings works with the OSD and which doesn't, like, recordings at some quality settings or something. But it's consistant in the way that if a recording doesn't work with the OSD the first time I play it, then it never will (and, if a recording works with the OSD, then it workes at all other times). Restarting GBpvr or the computer doesn't seem to make a difference...

These are my playback settings:

Video Decoder: InterVideo Video Decoder
Audio Decoder: InterVideo NonCss Audio Decoder
Audio Renderer: VIA AC'97 Audio(WAVE)

I use WMR9, I haven't got ffdshow installed and I haven't checked the "Minimal OSD During Playback" box

I have a log where I play two diffirent files, with the first file the OSD fails, with the second file the OSD works fine:

Code:

The diffirence seems to be the graphs GBpvr chooses for the files, in the one where the OSD fails it has:

[SIZE="1"]Graph contains the following filters:
Video Renderer 0004
InterVideo NonCSS Audio Decoder for Hauppauge
Video Renderer
VIA AC'97 Audio (WAVE)
[COLOR="Red"]MPEG Audio Decoder
Overlay Mixer2[/COLOR]
InterVideo Video Decoder
MainConcept MPEG Splitter
E:\Pvr\Vejen til Le Mans\Vejen til Le Mans_20051122_23300000.mpg[/SIZE]

In the one that works it has:

[SIZE="1"]Graph contains the following filters:
[COLOR="seagreen"]Video Renderer
VIA AC'97 Audio (WAVE)[/COLOR]
InterVideo Video Decoder
InterVideo NonCSS Audio Decoder for Hauppauge
MPEG-2 Demultiplexer
E:\Pvr\Vejen til Le Mans\Vejen til Le Mans_20051124_23300000.mpg[/SIZE]

I wonder if it's somehow showing the video using Overlay, but is trying to show the OSD with WMR9 when I play the first file?

It really puzzels, me 'cos I don't remember changing anything on the computer around the time when this started

I'm not sure why it would be picking filters each time. I effectively say to Windows Directshow 'make a graph for this file' and it automatically picks all of filters.

You could try deregistering the 'MainConcept MPEG2 Splitter'. It may help.

Sub, you never fail to amaze me

You were spot on. All videos play fine and with OSD again, thanks!
