Emby Theater not working with madVR

Well this is how it goes

 

1) Press play in Emby Theater of a recorded program (with some testing some live tv broadcasts do not work but movies in my library do)

2) Emby Theater displays only a black screen with Emby Theater OSD

3) Audio of program can be heard, no video (film, picture, etc) with a black screen 

 

 

Recently had madVR crash and sent report to them.  They responded quickly stating it was a crash in xysubfilter, not sure if that corresponds to anything else going on.

How is your hardware configured? Receiver? And can you post screenshots of your theater settings, audio and video?

I don't think this is hardware related as it works using EVR. Just madVR causes no video to be played. I can attach screenshots once I'm home

When MadVR is active, take a look at what display device it's using. Sometimes it'll switch. In my case, it would switch between receiver and TV. You may have something similar.

So I took some pictures of this occuring and something I have never seen before during playback is the xvsubfilter icon. Particular I have noticed this on mpeg2 playback (we have a lot of recordings for my toddler).

 

madVR is not switching my display on me.

 

I have never messed with the xy or lav filters/options before so odd that all of a sudden it has sprung up.

Ah! Then it might be an issue with the subtitles. Try disabling subs in the ET general settings and see what happens.

Turned off subtitles and still no video playback only audio. I also turned off hardware acceleration as I read that could be an issue with mpeg2 formats. Although I'm still thinking there is something with the xysubfilter as that icon never was there with playback before.

Can you post a screenshot of the file details? If you use a browser, find the show and scroll to the bottom, the details will be there?

There is the file details for the recording that I have been attempting to play with madVR. It was working the other day (toddlers favorite episode to watch haha). It does play with EVR.

I see you record with WMC. Have you tried a clean install of ET? The other thing you could try is to delete the contents of the MadVR folder and unzip the latest build in there. And set to Edge filters in ET

You read my mind doofus. I did a clean install of ET, than also unzipped the latest madVR build. I even tried the previous build for good measure and still nothing.

 

Granted I never deleted the contents of the madVR folder. I just ran the uninstall batch than copied the latest build and performed the install batch as an admin.

Try emptying the folder and unzipping directly to it. Don't run a batch file. Set to edge filters and restart ET

Should I delete the whole comobject folder and unzip?

No, just delete the contents of the madvr folder, and unzip the latest build directly to it

Still no luck. I deleted the madVR folder than extracted directly in. I made sure edge filters were set and still no video image. I did take a picture of the xysubfilter that pops up and the menu options that are there. Is this normal that it should be showing up?
