Thanks for the reply.. I will be using my projectors zoom and lens memory function to fill out the 2.39:1 screen not an anamorphic lens. Will this feature still be usable for me or not necessary? Thanks

You might get a better result if you let madVR handle the zoom. Easy enough to do and worth trying.

I agree, zooming with the lens means the pixels must get bigger on the screen. Better to let madVR do it and keep your PPI up.

Does anyone know what is causing 1 presentation glitch only? I changed one sharpener in the upscaling refinement options, went from adaptive sharpen to crispen edges, and I got 1 presentation glitch...I didn't have any with adaptive sharpen.

What do you mean by "got 1 presentation glitch?" Do you mean once per playback?

One presentation glitch during playback of a movie.

And you reset the OSD after playback starts? I would never worry about a single presentation glitch if it only happens during startup.

If it is happening after the first second or two, but only once per movie, it is probably performance related is some way. There are a lot of things that could cause one presentation glitch during a movie. Crispen edges is a tiny bit harder than AdaptiveSharpen (without anti-bloating).

Have your tried enabling/disabling D3D11, present a frame for every v-sync, or windowed overlay (make sure d3d11 is off when enabling overlay)? Those can give you a tiny bit of extra headroom but you cannot use the reported rendering times to judge them. You have to see how many glitches or frame drops you get when using each setting.

The presentation glitch occurs around 10-20 min during playback, I always reset the stats when I go in fullscreen. I use D3D9, with D3D11 I get triple times higher present stats (0,08 ms in D3D9 vs 0,39 ms). I'm on windows 7 64 bit.

I would not consider that difference to be at all useful when deciding between D3D9 and D3D11. They are measured in different ways by madVR, anything <1ms is the same as far as we know or care. Even if it was real, why do you care if present takes 300µs longer if it is more stable?

If using D3D9 let you use higher settings without drops or glitches it would be a good reason to use it but looking at the reported rendering and/or present times is not.

You are sure nothing is using your GPU every 10-20 minutes? No desktop slideshow or anything?

I will test with D3D11, no desktop slideshow I doubt anything is interfering with the playback, cause before I didn't have presentation glitch. Maybe it is from the drivers 382.53 the card is GTX 1050 Ti.

A week ago I did, and I had video glitches and flicker in the desktop. So I rolled back to 382.53.

After a lot of testing, I found the reason for my delay issue.

I should not try to watch a video in boredom while having a D3D11 game in the background, waiting for a long process to finish. Not even when it's minimized down to the task bar.

Without any GPU-competing application, madVR appears almost immediately, and D3D9 overlay is fine for the basic videos and hardware I have.

Great news, I thought it was a strange issue.

had another look at my delay, yeah so I forgot to mention that all my disks are spun spun down to save power / reduce heat so spinning them up when i play a movie adds to my delay.

doh...

I have a 103" 2:35:1 screen, and my projector can crop the black bars, and some of the top/bottom/side content, so i can have the same image on 16:9 or 2:35:1 films:


Is it possible to do something similar with madVR?

yes.
device -> "device name" set to digital projector
-> screen config
and processing -> zoom control

Hey all, I have what I hope is a simple question. I'm now on a 4K LG OLED and I have the gamma set to BT.2020. What should I set for gamma in madvr to match that? I know this is total newbie land here but I'm still learning about the 4K world. Thanks!!!
