Guide : Smooth Playback For MKV 720P & 1080P

demeter — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 18:10:40 +0800

Hi people,

I've just bought a htpc to hook up to my sony 40" and at first i was really dissapointed at the mkv 720p and 1080p playback, i almost bought those tvix stand alone players , but luckily there's the internet (thanks to bit-tech.net)

here is my set up

Proc : AMD X2 5000+
Mobo : Gigabyte GA-MA78GM
RAM : Apogee 2 GB running at DDR 800, i put 512 MB for the display
OS : Windows XP SP3

First UNINSTALL ALL your codec and download CCCP

Please overwrite the original mpc-hc that came with the codec with this one http://www.xvidvideo.ru/media-player-class...cinema-x86-x64/ (CREDIT & THANKS TO FARIZ)

the old version is very picky when enabling dxva support

Install the codec , just click next untill finish, you dont need to do any changes here.

Untick the H.264/AVC

[attachmentid=601147]

[attachmentid=601148]

Open the Windows Media Player Classic Home Entertainment , It should be at Start - Program - Combined Community Codec Pack - Players - Media Player Classic , Then click options

[attachmentid=601151]

Under Output do what i do

[attachmentid=601156]

Under Playback TICK the "Auto-Load Subtitles"

[attachmentid=601158]

RESTART THE MEDIA PLAYER CLASSIC

Load any mkv file that you want and right click , under filters you should see MPC Video Decoder (low merit)

[attachmentid=601160]

then click it, you should see this window poping up, you will see the DXDA mode tick and it's showing that Hardware Accleration is working

[attachmentid=601161]

Then the magic begins, watch your cpu load , here's mine

[attachmentid=601166]

THIS GUIDE IS FOR WINDOWS XP ONLY. VISTA USERS YOU HAVE TO EXPERIMENT WITH EVC, I DONT HAVE VISTA DONT ASK ME..

HARDWARE ACCELERATION ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE THOSE ATI HD CARDS , ABOUT NVIDIA I'M NOT SURE WHICH CARD HAS IT.

i tested on my 7900 gs and it does not work

for reference i have catalyst 8.9 installed and .net 3.5 installed

credit goes to the internet.

PLEASE POST IF THERE'S ANY DIFFERENCE IN YOUR CPU USAGE AND PLAYBACK , THANK YOU , WANTED TO SEE IF IT WORKS FOR EVERYONE WITH HD ENABLE GRAPHIC CARD
