Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) I installed it once and couldn't notice any difference in the playback in Emby Theater. Playback happens on either a 27" 1920 X 1080 monitor or a 21" 1440 X 900 monitor. Mostly in a windowed mode. What is the actual benefit of MadVR?

Swynol 375 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 it's noticeable on larger screens. running 1080p on a 120" projector setup it smooths the edges alot better than not having it on at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=146228 Hmmm, I have seen that. It doesn't really answer the question. I don't see much of a difference in their same images. it's noticeable on larger screens. running 1080p on a 120" projector setup it smooths the edges alot better than not having it on at all. Oh, I doubt I will ever have a screen that large. Not much interest in a super large screen and don't have space in my 1,300 square foot house.

Redshirt 1487 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Hmmm, I have seen that. It doesn't really answer the question. I don't see much of a difference in their same images. I never saw any difference either. To me it's always been a tool for people to be needlessly elite. However people do say that the benefits are most noticeable on older tv shows being scaled to 1080p or greater screens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellomade 140 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 It depends a lot on the quality of the media you are trying to play back. I find it impossible to see the difference with a 1080p rip of a bluray encoded with today's software. But I still have some AVI rips from DVDs I did 10 years ago (poorly ) where I can see a noticeable improvement. I do agree with Redshirt that with today's software MadVR really is for the measurebators out there. I would prefer to have a quality rip rather than mess with playback rendering.

Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 All of my rips are recent. DVDs and Blurays are MKV. So in other words, if I don't have a problem with current playback (I think it is called EVR), then don't worry about it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
