OK, thanks, I think I understand it now. I disabled "P210" (10-bit), then it displayed "P216" (16-bit) and deinterlacer didn't work either. Then I disabled "P216" and then it displayed YUY2 (8-bit) and deinterlacer works now.
In EVR cp it always shows YUY2. I think it converts P210 automatically to YUY2.

This P210 is also very rare. I doubt this recording was broadcasted in 1920x1080 - 4:2:2 - 10 bit, was it? User who created it probably used an external recorder and set it up this way. Anyway. Thank you for clarifying and helping me to understand that issue.

Any EVR does not support P210 (and does not convert). Therefore, it connects to the first supported format from the list that the decoder offers. The decoder converts from the format that FFmpeg outputs to YUY2.

PS: I've been shown this file before and my solution remains the same. I have no plans to add a dedicated convector to MPC VR to support this file. I have many other more urgent tasks.

Actually satellite broadcasts are sometimes in such a format, but they are not meant for users but between distribution studios which then get re-broadcast in typical user formats.

Another more simple solution would be refuse filter connection when mediatype is interlaced P210/P216. The effect will be the same as unchecking those formats in the decoder, but no user action is required.

I wrote a simple solution earlier. Disable P210 and P216 in decoder. These options are made to enable/disable them. Use this!

And do not forget that an ordinary user does not have such interlaced files (only one person on the Internet forces this file).

It is not possible to reliably identify interleaved or progressive video by media type. Many decoders issue the same dwInterlaceFlags for both cases.

Yes, since the user, v0lt indicated to know him , is definitely an end user who doesn't have the distribution file, but a recording with an external recoder or a set top box like my VU+ which puts the decoded video-, audio- and subtitle-stream into a *.ts file. And I never got a 10 bit 4:2:2 file out of it. Looks more like an external recorder of some kind and manual format selection of this user. It also reminds me of MXF files of some professional cameras which recordrs 4 channels of audio and it puts each channel into a single audiostream. Nothing for end users

"Normal" people can get access to such satellite streams with the right hardware, its just not something you would normally do if all you want is to watch it.

Why would anyone re-encode a digital signal in a recorder instead of just capturing it as-is? There is always a quality loss involved with that otherwise.

How is this accomplished to get such satellite streams? I can imagine that there is quite expensive hardware required, is it?

@devs:
I tested it for 9 month and I still want it an option for it:
Could you add a checkbox in last page in options so the user has the option to show full path of recent played files (rightclick on eject button). I really would like to have it back. It does not have to be default, no, but the option would be very nice to have. I really beg for it. It is important for me
Checkbox could be called "Show full path in recent played files"
default is unchecked and the user can check it if s(he) wants.

No, it is not - to receive and directly watch 4:2:2 feeds showing i.e. even non-showing on available ordinary channels sport translations earlier in 5-20 seconds than on ordinary channels in highest possible quality without advertizing including unnecessary tickers (and even without commentary) any inserted (PCI(-E) or USB) in computer SAT-card can receive 8PSK required - i.e. I've bought my Russian OMICOM S2 PCI card about 40$ ~ 10 years ago and I have much powerful (it can receive even 32APSK) but less sensitive TBS 5520SE USB tuner https://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs5...r_usb_box.html about 110$ including shipping ~4 years ago and once it's computer there isn't any problem (limited by free space on hard disk only) to record any stream from any received channel.
I know quite expensive set-top-box receiver Azbox can receive and show 4:2:2 directly (without LAN translation to device with 4:2:2 decoder - MPEG2 100% can but may be H264 can't - btw now I sometimes watch H265 4K 4:2:2 feeds like 20180428-175510_4K ENC 3 RMAD VS LEG.ts (563 MB) https://disk.yandex.ru/d/m0s5ztpj3XnUyw as slideshow because there isn't hardware acceleration and my Athlon II x3 460 can decode just about 7 fps).

In VLC player there is a preload buffer which I can adjust. The buffer allows not to read a file from a hard drive in real time, but to use this buffer before actually playing. This allows to have no interruptions while watching, for example due to high load of HDD from other software. Is there such feature in this player?
В плеере VLC есть функция "буфера предзагрузки видео", которая позволяет загружать видео в буфер в определённом объёме, прежде чем я по факту посмотрю этот фрагмент. Это помогает например в случаях когда другое ПО нагружает HDD и видео при просмотре прерывается и дёргается. Буфер помогает этого избежать. Если ли в этом плеере такая функция? Не смог найти.

internal filters-> bottom right buffer size.
if this is not accurate enough you could try lav filter it has 2 arguments one for size so you don't run out of ram and one for "duration" in packages ~"frames"

Thank you friend! But I still couldn't find "lav filter". Unfortunately default maximum buffer size (15 sec) is not enough((

It is a dedicated project which can be used as external filters in MPC-BE if you want.

Maybe someone can help me with this annoying problem. I do not know if this is a bug with MPC-BE but when I play SDR material MPC-BE autochanges to the correct refresh rates I configured in the Fullscreen menu but not when playing HDR material. I have tested this with MPCVR as well as MadVR since they are the only renderers that allow HDR and the effect neither of them autochange to the correct refresh rate.

Selecting "Change display mode before starting playback" outright does not work and affect SDR as well as HDR.

If anyone can help me with my problem, it will be much appreciated?

Cheers

In LAV it is called "Queue Size". You'll find it in the Splitter app and don't forget to set the LAV filters as "prefered" in BE-options.

Could you post 1 min clips of your files? MKVToolNix can be used to cut out a small segment. I will test for you and investigate

Thanks for the reply. To add, I have a RTX 2070 Super and an Acer CG437KP monitor.
