You write you are launching batch files with a command file using profiles. I have no idea what this means but interests me since I assume these .bats are launching from madVR potentially providing another avenue to engage NCP stereoscopic than the KODI playercorefactory.xml keeping everything automated. Please, please, be kind enough to elaborate how you do this in detail as if explaining to a 4 year old so I have a perfect understanding.

RE: which NVidia drivers and why, here is copy paste from where I originally posted this a couple weeks ago, fwiw. You may not be aware of the audio problem I encountered. I'm using 385.69 but as Manni pointed out, custom modes with 12bit does not work so I too will probably revert to 385.28. A shame we have to use drivers this old.
I have discovered what I assume is another bug introduced by NVidia drivers. Yesterday I decided to work it out. The problem: Right click your volume icon with your AVR OFF or in standby using passthrough. It should be setup for Stereo. Now, turn your AVR ON. It should be setup for 5.1 or 7.1 etc. (What ever you use during video playback) This should automate between stereo and 7.1 (for example) as you toggle your AVR off and on. If it doesn't, you will have to manually change it. If you forget, high bitrate audios will malfunction (audio filter errors) during video playback mode and/or youtube videos from desktop mode will not start. Not knowing if this was associated with a Windows update or something else, I decided to install NVidia drivers working backwards to rule them out as the culprit or find a working driver to identify where the problem originated. Eventually the audio setup started working as intended and I've concluded it is an NVidia driver issue. Here's what I installed and concluded using DDU between installs: 391.35-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Audio problem. 391.24-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Audio problem. 391.01-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Audio problem. 390.65-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Audio problem. This is the driver the audio problem was introduced. All of these drivers also cannot retain a 12bit setting after a reboot but you should be using 8bit anyway since 12bit introduces banding unless your display handles 12bit native properly. 388.59-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Does not turn HDR off after HDR playback but Audio switching problem is not present. This was the last good driver for audio switching. 387.92-desktop-win10-64bit-international-rs3-whql.exe = Does not turn HDR on prior to HDR playback. 385.69-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Working properly for HDR and Audio switching but any mouse movement turns 3D into 2D briefly. This is the driver I have reverted to. This also means I will need to use FSE. 385.28-desktop-win10-64bit-international-whql.exe = Working properly for HDR and Audio switching. These drivers survive a reboot when using 12bit but again, you should be using 8bit unless your display handles 12bit native properly. Understanding Nvidia has worked out many bugs, it now has these: No 10bit selection when using RGB. No auto switch from stereo to multiple speaker setup in Windows Audio considering if AVR state is On or Off. Audio Video sync for common refresh rates such as 23.976 f/ps leads to dropped frames without creating custom timings.

I maybe found a bug today. After I exchanged my GPU I tried to lower the luma settings from NGUSharp Very High to Mid and nothing happened. I can change it to NGUStandard mid or high, but within NGUSharp I can't change anything.
Is this a known bug madshi?

This happened to me once. I had to reset madVR settings.

Once you have created a profile that tests for 3D, in the 3D profile (for example in processing) you simply specify the name of your batch file to enable 3D in the field "command line to execute when this profile is activated". Provided your profiles are well defined, the batch file will be launched every time 3D content is played. Here is my condition for my profiles in processing: if (3D) "3D" else if (srcWidth <= 720) and (srcHeight <= 576)"SD" else if (srcWidth <= 1280) and (srcHeight <= 720)"HD" else if (srcWidth <= 1920) and (srcHeight <= 1080)"FHD" else if (srcWidth <= 3840) and (srcHeight <= 2160)"UHD" else "4K" When the 3D profile is activated, it launches my batch file enabling 3D. Here is the content of my file: Code:
REM Necessary header for importing .reg file. > "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" ECHO Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 >> "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" ECHO. REM Decide which CPU architecture- to set the proper registry keys for x86 and x64. REM Using GOTO instead of IF THEN ELSE because of better compatibility. REM Assume x86 as the architecture. SET "KEY=[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D]" REM Reset the key if that's not right. IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"=="x86" GOTO EchoKey SET "KEY=[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\Stereo3D]" :EchoKey >> "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" ECHO %KEY% REM Now the series of registry dwords for that \Stereo3D key. REM Let's auto-enable 3D, without going through the test. REM Bypass the Medical Test >> "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" ECHO "StereoVisionConfirmed"=dword:00000001 REM Reset from Discover >> "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" ECHO "StereoViewerType"=dword:00000001 REM Now let's import registry file REM /s is used to avoid an "Are you sure" prompt regedit.exe /s "%temp%\Update3DSettings.reg" REM -- No registry key for Enable stereoscopic 3D checkbox, so we'll directly REM call the activation tool. Change path if this is not correct. REM We call for both 32 bit and 64 bit. If one fails it's not a problem. CALL "C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /enable CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\3D Vision\nvstlink.exe" /enable Quote:
This is with a display able to handle 12bits of course. If your display doesn't support 12bits, then you can have banding in 12bits and will have to use 8bits in that case. I can confirm that the JVC projectors from 2015 (so starting with RS400/500/600/5000/7000/9000) support 12bits natively from inputs to panels and that there is no banding in 12bits provided you use FSE if HDR passthrough, or pixel shader in either FSE or full screen windowed.

Thank you for sharing. This is very useful info encouraging me to make some changes and experiment.
Yes, I understand native 12bit displays do not need to use RGB 8bit (since RGB 10bit is not offered) to avoid banding. When madshi wrote to use 8bit, I was only focusing on 10bit native displays that do not handle 12bit proper enough to dither down to 10bit. My bad. I'll edit appropriately.

because your Tv doesn't handle 12 bit correctly doesn't many other have the same problem.
i'm even at a point that i never saw a SDR Tv with 12 input problem yet. not dithering 12 bit down to 10 bit shouldn't show a terrible banding especial if the real image is dithered 10 bit. truncated could even be perfect for such a situation. and the real known issue is with HDR and 10 bit windowed mode only. which is a clear driver problem not a display problem. |

Question: Since I am running my GPU at 2160p60, Full RGB 4:4:4 8-bit. Should I be telling MadVR that my display's native bitdepth is 8-bit or 10bits (or higher)? Is it possible that my render time is higher than it could be because I have 10 bit (or higher) selected in MadVR despite MadVR dithering 12-bit down to 8-bit? |

No, dithering to 10 bit is not any harder than dithering to 8-bit. madVR cannot dither to >10 bit, it is always dithering from its internal 16 bit data to 10 or few bits. madVR always does its dithering in one step at the end of the rendering pipeline, if it outputs 8 bit it always dithers directly to 8 bit.

I've noticed something really odd tonight, when playing movie i don't see any drop frames in madvr OSD, but when then credits shows up dropped frames are increasing really quick and max stats rendering goes really high too(like from 10ms to 45ms)... even the madvr shows 1 frame drop every 1h07min. I will try to record it tomorrow so you can see yourself how madvr behave. Movie is called "Better Watch Out" and the credits are with strong red and yellow colours ( dont know if this even matter though )

This is most likely a fault with the file or the way the media player handles the file. Try another file. If it persists, try another media player.

Searching for madshi posts in this thread is most accurate way to know it.

A problem with Madvr and MPC-HC timings
Hi
First of all this is my first post i have a problem with madvr. At first i was able to optimize timings and so on. i had the perfect timings for 23.976 (71.928 in case of my monitor). Now what ever i do (optimizing, CRU...) madvr shows frame drop/repeat in every 30s to few minutes. Anyone having the same problem? i use MPC-HC. i have set the following display modes: 1080p23, 1080p24, 1080p29, 1080p30, 1080p48, 1080p50, 1080p59, 1080p60 i have tried many madvr versions but no dice. Here are my specs: Hardware: i7 6700k 4.5gHz Asus Strix GTX 1080 OC (stock clocks) 16 GB DDR4 500 GB SATA II System drive (system partition has about 80 GB) Acer s231hl monitor Max OC being 74-75Hz (sometimes 75 works and sometimes it doesn't) Software: Windows 7 x64 ReClock 1.9.0.0 Madvr 0.92.12 MPC-HC 1.7.13 x86 CRU 1.3.1 i am switching my monitor into C27FG73. i have already tried using the latter monitor twice but had to RMA twice because of clouding. C27FG73s had the same problem with madvr. Like i said at first everything worked well. And sorry about being lazy and not reading through the whole thead.

Are you using media speed correction in ReClock? There is no need to use ReClock with custom timings.
Are you getting any dropped/repeated frames, or is madVR just estimating these? The custom timing screws with madVR's estimation. It could be the custom timing is no longer active. Maybe you updated the drivers? In any case, have you tried going through the optimization process again?
