This doesn't make sense. If the issue was in the encode it would always be there. How could it correct itself when you change playback settings? It has to be a result of the playback device.

I am gone play on hardware player and see what is happening, when I played on software player my result is identical limobar.

This is why I hesitate to accept bug reports from software players -- you never know whether the issue is in the player (and it usually is). Last edited by jdobbs; 15th January 2014 at 16:45. |

True, hardware player would be big help. I am gone run some test and hopefully have meaningful report.
Just quick question can you test sample as well. It is only 29 second and it would add weight to report.

I will do the same, in fact I already ordered it and hopefully I will have it soon.

Thank you, marvelous to hear such a news. I am doing backup as well and will also test for sure (extra test doesn't hurt)

I'm loving the DTS Express support. Thus far, Karate Kid is doing well with PowerDVD 12 and LG Player. I have some others to try soon. Yay!

That it's the hardware accelerated decoding that gives artifacts and not the software decoding, is odd. I would think that HW decoding has strict rules and that software decoding can be more forgiving when it comes to used encoder settings. Knowing that HW decoding goes wrong, there's no reason to exclude the FRIM encoder as the reason for the artifacts, at this point. |

I've seen hardware acceleration cause problems in all kinds of scenarios. That's why it's an option that can be disabled. This scenario is no different. I have no vested interest in whether FRIMEncode works or doesn't work -- I'm just using logic here, and everything points to the decoder. Last edited by jdobbs; 16th January 2014 at 01:19. |

You can disagree with me, but what I'm saying is logical.
You can create an encode that gets decoded fine by more forgiving decoders, but if that encode doesn't meet the required standard it is supposed to meet, the encode is still to blame and not the decoder that only allows that required standard. |

The bottom line is that the ONLY good test is using a standalone player, and having done a large number of 3D discs with FRIMEncoder I have not encountered a single one that has playback issues (on two different brands of players).
While anything is possible in a quantum world, the probabilities point heavily toward the decoder. Last edited by jdobbs; 16th January 2014 at 01:33. |

I am quite happy with compression of FRIM, I am gone do movie with longest run time I have and see how it goes.

I ran a group of PSNR tests with 2D encodes from FRIM and X264 at different settings. X264 did better overall, but it really wasn't as great a difference as I would have thought, and I think it was mainly due to it's two pass ability. I may do another comparison using ABR on both.

You really can't compare them even with ABR, unless disable advance options such as lookahead and MB Tree etc.

Jdobbs, I notice something interesting I was extracting main movie from cloudy with chance of meat balls 2 and I used mpls, but when I finish tsmuxer only extracted mvc stream from first segment which is 7 min 34 sec.
I am wondering if it has to do something with faulty playback of 3D in software when mux is done. I am gone send this info to Roman as well.
