DirectX Video Output w/ HD5770 card

Postby segraves1 » 08 Mar 2010 22:31

I have been using VLC on my vista 32bit computer for quite a while and have always used DirectX for the video output since this is the only way I can get good deinterlacing. I recently (just this weekend) upgraded to an ATI HD5770 video card. Now when I try to play a movie with DirectX selected, I don't get any video (movie plays and can hear sound fine). If I turn off DirectX, I get video back but now I don't seem to have good deinterlacing (I get interlace artifacts during motion sequences).

Anyone have any experience with this or have a suggestion on how to approach the problem?
Thanks,
Chris

Hmm...where do I find 1.1.0? On the download section all I can find is 1.0.5 (which I have).

After further playing around, I can run directx and getting the dienterlacing I need, however I only get video on one monitor.

To explain, The video card has 2 DVI outputs which I'm converting to HDMI and then run to a projector and a monitor. I use the monitor for "quick"/look at stuff/check mail/ kinds of daily things. I then use the projector for watching movies.

With directx on, whichever "device" is the primary gets the picture and the other does not.
With directx off, they both get it.

odd...
