Emby Theater not working with madVR

[Luke 42077]

What about just application defaults and no edge filters. Can you try a complete uninstallation and install Emby Theater clean, then do nothing else besides enable madvr? thanks.

I'm not completely sure how to share the file. Do you have a Google drive a account I can send to?

 

If you upload to your google drive, you can share a link to the file. How big is it?

[DrJekle 4]

I'll try that first thing in the morning tomorrow

[Luke 42077]

Thanks !

Its about 500 MBS. But since it was recorded in wmc it might not play due to the copy protection and how it is flagged.

This is soon to be a thing of the past

Yeah, it may be. try Luke's suggestion and see what happens

[DrJekle 4]

Clean install and only enabling madVR yields the same response

[DrJekle 4]

I thought I could try using another player to see what would happen. I can confirm that the file will play using mpc-hc and madVR.

[Guest asrequested]

A sample of the file would be good. I can test it and see what's happening.

[DrJekle 4]

I'll get one uploaded by Monday. I'm out of town now for Easter weekend. Hopefully it will play for you.

[Guest asrequested]

I'll make it play. How long does it take to get out of sync?

[DrJekle 4]

As soon as I hit play, playback begins just no picture and only audio

[Guest asrequested]

Ah right, yes sorry. I was thinking of another thread  

 

You have an HD 530 GPU, right? There shouldn't be an issue with that. Any chance there was a driver update, and something changed?

[DrJekle 4]

I have an nvidia 1060. There are was a driver update but I rolled it back in case that was the issue. I even performed a system restore point as a fixall but so far no luck.

 

Weird that I only see it in ET and not mpc-hc

[Guest asrequested]

I'm going to need to get my hands on it.

[Luke 42077]

It could be a graphics driver incompatibility with madvr introduced by newer drivers, and the only fix is going to be for us to update the embedded madvr.

Would I still be seeing the issue even with rolling back drivers and older release of madVR?

Here's my Google drive link. Let me know how it goes

Well, I can't find a way for it not to play. I deleted the COMObjects folder, changed filter set etc. It's playing as I type this. It's MPEG2, can you play other MPEG2 videos with theater? 

[Guest asrequested]

Hang in there, though. Theater is about to get a new player.

[Luke 42077]

Yes Theater is going to be getting a shiny new video player. From now until then I would just set the video renderer to Auto. Thanks.

Well of course it behaves for you

 

I'll have to test and confirm. Right now I know it will play h.264 with no problem. Other MPEG2 files I have tried gave the same result.

 

I'll try setting it to auto and see how that does. What's the ETA on the shiny new player?

[DrJekle 4]

So of course it's now randomly working. I went to confirm the other MPEG2 files, and just for the heck of it started the same file I sent you Doofus and BAM the file plays back just fine.

[DrJekle 4]

And now it's not working again, although with it set to auto there is no problem playing MPEG2 files. I'll wait for the new player to update
