DVBDream and HD Channel

Postby sischo » Sun Aug 03, 2008 5:15 pm

I guess it's better if you improve the vision of H.264 channels.

I read this in another forum:
"there is another issue using cyberlink in dvbdream. Those 720p channels doesn't play well. The video will be play at a slow speed and quickly the buffer overflows."

I have the same problem with my hardware

I read also it's just coming out a new version of Mytheatre v4.00.beta-1 which optimises video H.264 with Cyberlink PowerDVD8

"About H264 codecs:
so far, all tested codecs are working. Stability mostly depends on codec itself.
I suggest PowerDVD 8 decoders. Just install PowerDVD 8 and then its decoders will be available for choose in MyTheatre Autograph settings.
Some H264 decoders, such as PowerDVD, MPC-HC support Hardware Video Acceleration (DXVA). If you have video Card supporting DXVA for H264 then CPU loading on H264 channels will be around 2-5% only(!).
In short, for H264 DXVA you need:
1) PowerDVD 8 or MPC-HC (june build)
2) proper VGA card (i tested on ATI HD2600XT and ATI HD3200)
3) for Windows XP video renderer should be Video Mixing Renderer 7/9. For Vista video renderer should be Enhanced Video Renderer"

As I don't want to change my Player, I'd like that the programmers of DVBDream can optimise H.264 as well

I was thinking if developers can put add in DVBdream the program MPC-HC including it like a single program.

I mean that Audio codecs and Video Codecs are direclty managed by MPC-HC

DvbDream --> Mfury's network encoding plugin --> SageTV = Perfect playback.

When Relocation picks up this project (DvbDream) again, I believe he can fix the H.264, but until then Mfury has provided a solution.

I installed SageTV and the module for DVBdream but I don't like it at all.

I was saying to implement MPC-HC in DVBdream; according to me MPC-HC working very good with HD channels so for it I suggested to plug in MPC-HC direclty in DVBdream
