softworkz 3347 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Thanks. The diagnostic options are not preserved on reboot. What's the difference between these log files now? One with green/pink and the other one OK? The are technically doing exactly the same, so there shouldn't be a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The are technically doing exactly the same, so there shouldn't be a difference. they were both there so I'm not sure but the latest one is for sure the one one that had the pink and green on the screen. Just so you know I have burn in ASS Subtitles checked in the nvidia shield app. Edited December 11, 2021 by NeverExists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softworkz 3347 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Actually it's all pretty good now (besides the colors). It runs at 4.0x speed and the setup looks all good Lessons learned from this: when burning-in subtitles and the video is decoded in software, we shouldn't do the burn-in in hardware (after uploading both, video and rendered (transparent) subtitle frames). In my tests for this situation, I remember that I always had scaling involved, so the subtitle overlay frames were much smaller (generated and less data to upload). I'll change that for the next beta. The colors issue is something that I need to try to reproduce. Meanwhile, you could try two things: Disable hw acceleration Only the encoder is hw accelerated here Select the Nvidia H.264 instead of the QuickSync one (select "Advanced" for the hw acceleration, then you'll see the details) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From where? K i figured it out, but it does not matter what I choose it still is very choppy playback. I tried both suggestions.

softworkz 3347 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Choppy? I thought we were at "fluent but color issues"? Did you set the "Disable HW Sub Overlay" checkbox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softworkz 3347 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 You can look further down to "H.264 Encoders" and move either QuickSync or Nvidia to the top. Also check in your client whether you have made any bandwidth setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will this be fixed soon cause I don't feel like having to go into my options every time I want to play something. I want to have the best picture quality like I had before.

Oh just thought I'd mention that I get those weird colors on the screen when using quicksync d11 but not nvidia d11. I prefer quicksync cause the image looks better and I only get those weird colors when I have ass subtitles on and that setting ticked in diagnostics. If you guys could make it so I can use quicksync d11 and Ass without having to tick that box everytime I watch something that would be great. Let me know and thanks for all the help.

Hey, one other thing. There is an anime show that I have that always gets choppy for the intro. The music plays fine and the ASS Subtitles show for the Song during the intro, but it always freezes at points during the intro while the music keeps playing. I have subtitles selected for signs and songs in the anime and they are ASS but I don't have burn in ASS selected in the settings till the other issue gets fixed. Also any idea if there will be a server update before xmas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
