It's a bit late now but I solved this by switching to a newer notebook with an AMD 3020e APU, it's based on ZEN 1 cores and has an integrated Vega 3 GPU that works fine. It should contain a UVD 7.0
It's a shame that this aspect ratio is still not supported after so many years and wih so many movies using it, especially in the recent years. Is it really so much effort to do it?
That log file has become quite large after 1 minute of video playback: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1pkyD_pPK3FGrppnoFOGmbKqiwwpH0jVP That VLC 3.0.6 nightly was set to automatic (both video and decoding) and the HEVC 8bit video played fluently except for some stutters that appeared after 10-20 s...
I agree and also think that the "automatic" setting *should* actually work without user interference and automatically detect and select the best and/or working option. But since I now know that the automatic setting cannot be fully trusted, I will of course keep that in mind at all times ...
PS.(cannot add this to my post due to a character limitation) I got a 10 bit HEVC/H265 file that encountered quite a few dropped frames on my PC with a Radeon RX 480 - with that Direct3D9 video output it works perfectly without any dropped frames too! I assume the "automatic" option should...
-> Here is a screenshot of the WDDM driver version seen in the task manager: it's 25.20.15003.5010 (device manager says the same) https://i.imgur.com/DlXhpQM.png By the way do not use DXVA with Direct3D11 output or D3D11VA with Direct3D9 output. You have to match them or use no hardware decoding at ...
Try with --no-avcodec-hurry-up -> I assume this is a command line option, right? I started VLC with "vlc.exe --no-avcodec-hurry-up" and let the video play - no change. Please tell me, if I did it wrong and have to enter this somewhere else... Google wasn't particularly helpful in finding ...
Okay, I set the logfile to "debug" and hope that is the correct way. They are too long to paste right here. I let the film play for around 1 minute. DXVA decoding: https://pastebin.com/miR6bLkQ (black screen & only audio playing) DX11 decoding: https://pastebin.com/7LD1MvGA (I can see ...
Please read this: - I enabled DXVA 2.0 (when I disable it, I can see the video but it's very choppy; CPU alone is too slow) It's a bit funny that so many people just recommend deactivating the hardware acceleration in order to get hardware acceleration to work. :roll: This doesn't solve the problem ...
- My notebook has an AMD A6-9220e APU (Stoney Ridge family) that features a Radeon R4 GCN3 GPU with a Universal Video Decoder Engine 6.3 which is capable of decoding H.265 / HEVC (up to 10bit-color HDR & VP9) in hardware - GPU-Z confirmed - I enabled DXVA 2.0 (when I disable it, I can see the vi...
