Media Player Classic - BE Win32/x64

EVR-CP has dithering. Does this help you?

[huhn]

yes that's good enough i will test it later but i'm very sure that it was fixing any banding issues from processing.

edit:looks good on a small scale but i have to install this new image source filter mpc-be is instantly finishing the file.
i need RGB48 input support to test my usually test image. hard to test lavfilter has dithering too so the error only comes from scaling

mpc-be EVR seems to win against MPC-HC EVR in this test:

ignore the bottom part

sorry i'm currently using 2 screen with 6 bit.

[aufkrawall]

Yeah, mpc-be evr-cp is fine.

@aufkrawall
I suggest trying v0.4.2.1148 in DX9 mode.

[huhn]

mpc-vr DX9 doesn't fail the banding test anymore good job

[v0lt]

Dithering is also added for DX11 mode in v0.4.2.1150.

[huhn]

doesn't seem to work here.

[v0lt]

@huhn
Thanks. I fixed this in v0.4.2.1151.

[aufkrawall]

It's looking fine now, even with D3D11VA resizing. Great work!

Now, if I may offer another wish: Something like mpv's --video-sync=display-resample would be nice to always have perfect playback, as long as being close enough to a corresponding refresh rate:

It's quite nice vs. smooth motion/interpolation to save power on mobile devices.

Introduced a bug here. The whole picture has been shifted up.

Hm, it's unfortuantely too slow on my Gemini Lake SoC: Even YouTube 1080p 60fps with lowest scaling and format settings consumes more than 10W package power, while mpv 4k 60fps averages around 8W (would be <6W on Linux Xorg fullscreen).

@JNW
Thanks. I fixed this in v0.4.2.1152.

You do know this is just another take on what ReClock did 10 years ago, and many other players support by now?
Let video timings be precise, resample audio to match.

Ok, where is this magic button?

But why should I?

[huhn]

to bad it's not fixed in sanear the last commit was something about that interface.

What, thats exactly the technique your link proposes. Just what ReClock does.

I meant: Why not resample video?
You change the refresh rate to anything or a multiple close and that's it, perfect playback guaranteed. There are no drawbacks in practice.

Note that my context was mobile devices and not one's personal cinema room with audio passthrough etc.

[huhn]

doesn't change that they are selling audio resampling as new...

there is even a 3rd version from MPDN where the "sound" card just get's different sample rate and has to deal with that.

[aufkrawall]

I politely asked for a handy feature and not for lectures by non-developers about its alleged history that is of no interest to anyone.

Thats basically Smooth Motion. Sampling is the process of taking distinct temporal snapshots from a continous analog signal. In audio thats samples, in video thats frames. Smooth Motion interpolates between the available frames to show a different snapshot in time, ie. resampling.
Playing at a perfect integer multiple of the movie frame rate does not require any processing, since the sample-and-hold nature of video just takes care of that either way.

Resampling Audio with perfectly timed video is available in many players, including mpv as your quoted --video-sync=display-resample, or ReClock in DirectShow (or perhaps other audio renderer as well, I haven't really followed SaneAR etc)
Resampling Video is madVR Smooth Motion.

Your questions aren't very clear. You asked about emulating that mpv mode mentioned above, which is just what ReClock does. And now we're talking about the actual opposite instead?
