Emby Theatre support for EVC

[Daz42 5]

In terms of colors, I think I am onto something. I think MPV is trying to output using yuv444p as a target format. When I insert this line:

 

--vf=format=fmt=rgb48le

 

The colors are pristine as you see them in MPC-HC. The only downside is that I am back to choppy playback again, even with:

 

--hwdec=auto

Check your mpv log and make sure that everything is working as it should. Sometimes odd things happen

[Daz42 5]

OK, I have it all working properly on MPV standalone. It's *almost* the same as MPC-HC. I need to use these settings:

 

hwdec=d3d11va
vf=format=colormatrix=bt.709:primaries=bt.709

 

Playing my test movie with standalone MPV is nearly perfect and no frame drops. The color is as close as I can get to MPC-HC. Unfortunately, no matter how much I play around in the ET settings, I cannot stop the choppy playback (setting to 'Auto' or 'D3D Windows 8+') - it feels like the setting is not being passed to MPV.

Two ways to check. You can look at stats for nerds, or look at the mpv log. Both will tell you what hardware acceleration is being used. 

 

You can also disable everything in the UI and use your own mpv.conf.

You can also experiment with d3d hardware filtering

When you say disable everything in the ET UI, you can only set most items to 'Auto' - is this what you mean?

Yeah, auto should allow the mpv.conf config. In this case, hwdec.

Try putting this in your mpv.conf

hwdec=d3d11va
vo=opengl
opengl-backend=angle
vf=format=colormatrix=bt.709:primaries=bt.709

[Daz42 5]

Ok, all set to Auto. Still choppy and wrong colors - I will have to look at the logs for hardware decoding as you have suggested.

[Guest asrequested]

I was just reading up on hwdec. I think the opengl line that I added is messing with the color.

 

 

Try this

hwdec=cuda-copy
vf=format=colormatrix=bt.709:primaries=bt.709

If you're using BT.709 then you're reducing HDR down to SDR, you need to output in BT.2020 to get HDR, also I'd recommend playing back at native FPS and let the TV do the interpolation it's going to be better at it than your computer will and it will take a significant amount of strain off by not forcing the computer to create 36 extra frames that aren't there to begin with.  On my system I have it set to automatically adjust the resolution and refresh rate output to the TV to always be native to the content and let the TV's system do everything else, works great  and looks fantastic.  Your choppiness may even be caused by the way the computer is interpolating frames messing with the TV's onboard processing trying to do the same thing.  I'd turn off any and all processing on the TV and see if your choppiness goes away if you're stuck on outputting 24p content at 60p from the PC, again personally I'd never suggest doing it that way as it causes more problems than it fixes.

[Guest asrequested]

I was wondering about using refresh rate switching to help with the 'choppiness'

[JeremyFr79 228]

I can attest that outputting outside of native refresh rate to my TV can cause all kinds of unwanted "wonkiness" unfortunately what happens is you have 2 sets of post processing going on and the TV being 2nd in line doesn't know that anything's happening at the source so it tries to compensate and do it's thing and usually just makes matters worse.

I need to buy a new tv. I'm itching to test all of this.

DO IT!

DO IT!

 

LOL...Oh I've been thinking about it. I have some other things I need to pay for, first. Damn it! There's that itch, again.....

Try this

Tried:

 

hwdec=cuda-copy

vf=format=colormatrix=bt.709:primaries=bt.709

 

That actually messed the colors up again!

So - back to ET, I setup logging to see if I could see why I was getting choppy playback - however it looks to be hardware decoding:

@@Luke, perhaps you could help - what arguments are passed to MPV when a movie plays? I would like to explore each one. I am getting consistent choppiness when lauching MPV through ET now but never when launching it directly.

It is using hardware acceleration, but d3d and not cuda-copy. It must be getting overridden.

Hi @@dannygp87, I have Windows 10 (10.0.16.299, build 16299). Yes I have the Windows 10 Falls Creator Update as I have version 1709.

 

In the nVidia control panel, you can set 8 bit Full RGB (full) or 10 bit 4:2:2 (limited) at maximum. As I understand it, it is not possible to get 10bit 4:4:4 @ 60hz through the current specification of HDMI (currently 2.2) as there is not enough bandwidth at 18Gbps. Currently, I have 10 bit 4:2:2 set through Windows to see if there is any difference.

I am not seeing any 'HDR' notifications appear on the screen when playing 10 bit HDR videos - even when set at 4:2:2 10bit, either through the nVidia control panel or from Windows display settings.

 

However, when I set 4:2:2 10bit all of the TV settings are locked to HDR so you can't adjust many of the settings you could at 8bit.

However, when I set 4:2:2 10bit all of the TV settings are locked to HDR so you can't adjust many of the settings you could at 8bit.

Exactly, that's exactly how it should be configured. Leave the color setting on Nvidia Control panel to default and it should change automatically from RGB to 4:2:2 when you play a video if you have HDR activated on Windows 'un display settings.

The problem is that currently mpv doesn't notify the screen to change the mode, so my recommendation is to use MadVR render in ET options (although that option is not working with the last ET release, we have to wait until it's updated")
