Win7 VLC 1.1.x direct3d error - VLC 1.0.5 works

I am not able to use direct3d for Video Playback.
VLC 1.1.x Video Playback starts only with module directx = bad picture quality
With VlC 1.0.5 everything works ok

"direct3d error: Could not create the D3D device! (hr=0x8876017C)"
Change video output or update your drivers...

I hope you used 1.1.2

[vel_tins]

same issue with 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 and latest available graphic drivers.
But why does VLC 1.0.5 work?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Because your card driver is broken...

Update your driver or change video output.

VLC 1.1.x Video Playback starts only with module directx = bad picture quality

+ Windows 7 Basic color scheme

No Picture in VLC 1.1.x not only on nVidia cards

[vel_tins]

Because your card driver is broken...

And VLC 1.0.5 can handle "broken card drivers"......
My driver IS the latest available and after reinstall, I have the same issue
Example:
VLC 1.0.5

VLC 1.1.2

[VLC_help]

Contact Intel.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Or use openGL output.

Contact Intel

yes, I am sure they will release a new driver for me ....
Or alternatively, i can buy a new Laptop, to use Vlc 1.1.2.. Never read such a piece of bul******it before. Thanks for your "help" and arrogance

I think, I will stay with VLC 1.0.5, it works, so why change

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Someday, you will understand what "volunteer work" means.

Not for you. Just generic fix for the issue.

[Ludrax]

why can't we call this regression?
maybe ATI can release a special version for VLC(but that is only for current cards)

[VLC_help]

why can't we call this regression?

Since it is valid Direct3D code.

[Ludrax]

something is invalid

what to expect from (still unreachable) ATI
