the problem is sending and and getting benefit of it.
you are using EVR there by default it is not even using a buffer that is over 8 bit and 10 bit presentation was let's say different.

No. My monitor does not support 10 bit, that is why I use LG C9 only now.

In fact Directx3d 11 does not support 10 bit SDR only OpenGL does after it was activated for geforce in windowed mode. I may be mistaken, but Vulkan maybe too, there is no way to select bitness though there, I think, so it may be 12 bit, float, whatever? Mpv and photoshop are two only that support it (mpv also vulkan, so it is quite strange), I think...

Suffice to say, all 4K UHD televisions that offer HDR, support 10-bit colour (in one form or another). Some even support 12-bit Dolby Vision HDR. Ideally you want the actual panel to natively display 10-bit colour, rather than it display 8-bit colours with electronic dithering to similate 10-bits - like my 2016 4K LG 65UH770V television does

No, displays do not have to support 10 bit panel to pass Vesa HDR certification. They only need to accept HDR10 signal. 12 bit is only Dolby Pulsar and it is FRC. No, FRC to 10 bit is not required to pass Vesa Display HDR spec. In fact it is even worse, HDR10 is not required (only on paper that is), may be that tonemappong to 700 nits makes 10 bit not really needed, since that is obvious from 8 bit PQ support on LG C9 in either 444 or RGB.

Even if i don't change that in Nvidia driver or windows ?

One thing i think i know is about the Presentation mode: Flip/FlipEx is better. So i choose that.
Anyway.. sorry my english.

Yes, you should enable exclusive fullscreen (it will only work if you disable fullscreen optimisations in exe properties though, that removes three frames buffering).

In practice not exclusive fullscreen is also enough for passing HDR10 metadata (windowed directx does not pass it), Vulkan never works anyway.

That says it fixes a crash. Did you just revert it? I suppose the problem is fixed in https://github.com/Aleksoid1978/MPC-...a4b4df28e9071a

Oh I see, yes you got it.. I linked the original commit. Updated.

just ignore him he as no clue what he is talking about anyway...

i mean "pretty much every TV support 10 bit input even very old 1080p display do."
answer no my monitor doesn't...
...
claiming directx can't do 10 bit sdr...
his random gamma garbage...

just wow...

It is needed for initial buffering.

With reference to: 1.6.4 [git 2022.09.07 - bdba5042a]... I think .cue file access/navigation has been affected in some way.

I've just backed-up Pink Floyd Animals Blu-ray disc to my D drive. But after placing the multi-channel FLAC audio stream and .cue file into a folder located on either my C or D drive, whenever I click on the .cue file MPC reports 'File not found'.

But here's the weird thing... If I click on the .Flac file, MPC somehow finds the .cue file and correctly lists all the tracks (including their names).

And even weirder, if I copy the same folder over to my NAS, when I click on the .cue file MPC launches the .flac audio stream perfectly.

Upload you .cue file(s).

P.S. Checked on latest git version - https://disk.yandex.ru/d/hlf1lfC8mKU58/!_last

Sure... Here you go

Please use external file hoster.

Oh yeah, I forgot that the Doom9 Forum prefers not to store files. Does this link work okay? https://www.mediafire.com/file/e9pd5...imals.zip/file

Because you are a Doom9 forum member since 2003,
you've got no right to forget that.

It cannot do SDR 10 bit, not HDR. It is an open issue, I think. There is no much difference between TV and Monitor. In fact as I said I use TV as my monitor and will never use horrible QLED again. Oogh.

For example, when I want to open "BLOOMBERG US" in this playlist, it opens the highest resolution (2160p). Is there anything I can do to turn on 720p resolution in this and similar ones?

If you open single url for stream - then you can select different resolution/quality in playlist. If you open playlist with url - then you can't select.

I haven't used MPC-BE for a while. When I start using the last git (1.6.4.66) I found a problem.
After a little digging, I found the problem was introduced between "1.6.2.7083_git2022.05.11-b2f7d82c0" and "1.6.2.7087_git2022.05.11-ee26d6097". ("1.6.2.7083_git2022.05.11-b2f7d82c0" working well but "1.6.2.7087_git2022.05.11-ee26d6097" not).

To put it short, unchecking the option "Position subtitles relative to the video frame" has no effect on rasterized subtitles anymore. (It still takes effect on text-based subs)

So when I use "Touch window from outside" on some videos to make the top and bottom black border (encoded as part of the video frames) off the screen on my ultrawide monitor, now the PGS subtitles are rendered on the bottom black bar of the video frame, so it's also off the screen and invisible.

Again, it's working well on "1.6.2.7083_git2022.05.11-b2f7d82c0".

Please check. Thx.

@devs - feature request:

Set another .mpls/m2ts or load alternative .mpls triggered by parameter DiscId.

Usage. Blu-Rays with content that DirectShow players like MPC-BE have problems with.

Example 1: Files (like studio jingles, etc) with different audio configurations are parsed into one movie presentation causing fail in movie playback.

Example 2a: Blu-Rays with bonus features that are longer than the movie itself but in the same resolution, like Michael Reeves' The Sorcerers on the German Anolis BR !
DS players like BE load the longer bonus instead of the main movie. (Bonus content longer than the movie but in lower resolution is reliably identified by MPC-BE and ignored.)
--> 2b: On the German Blu-Ray of "Tombs of the blind dead" are a 1.66:1 and a 1:33:1 version of the movie !! BE seem to always load the 1.66:1 version because it has the lower mpls number.
But I actually prefer the full frame version and always have to remember this issue and reload.

Example 3: One of my favourite labels is Anolis here in Germany - they release cool stuff, especially the films of Hammer Studios. However, they have the weird habit of calling their Blu-Rays always :
ANOLIS FILM ENTERTAINMENT. If you don't believe me - just look in keydb.cfg. !
So, when porting their old DVD releases to Blu-Ray they sometimes dit not included extras like audio commentaries. So, I ripped the audio commentaries to a local folder but in order to have these
auto loaded I have to give them the name ANOLIS FILM ENTERTAINMENT.
In other words, whenever I try to play one of their discs BE loads (for now) 4 audio commentaries !! ACs of totally different movies. So, DiscID added as a parameter to these filenames could fix this behaviour.

Workarounds so far -> manually loading different m2ts or mpls from disc. But this causes also problems like missing chapter markers and, of course, you have to remember what disc has problems and what to do, etc.
So I am hoping for a solution within the app.

The recently developed RDKfromMMKV gave me the idea how it would be (hopefully) relatively easy to solve this.
With this tool the DiscId can be quickly retrieved which should be unique.
And so MPC-BE could look into a local folder if there are special instructions for this DiscID like loading a different mpls maybe even not from the blu-ray itself but from local folder, etc.

Of course, I do not know if this is even possble but it would be very, very cool

And finally maybe even Madshi could add this parameter to MadVR and this would really, really help with my dozens of profiles.

I always can select needed .mpls in "Navigate" menu after opening BD.
