VPDAU supported by GeForce 9600

calestyo · 05-20-09, 07:10 AM

Hi.

I'd like to bus the Silent from Asus' EN9600GT card.
Unfortunately I find different information whether VPDAU is supported or not.

Is it definitely supported and if so fully (H.264, VC-1, etc.) or only partially?

Thanks,
Chris.

Update: To clarify the subject: I meant the 9600GT chipset.

The 9600GT should be well supported by VDPAU. It is able to do hardware assisted decoding of all formats - some fully (h264) and some partially (MPEG1, VC-1). It should be sufficient to decode all formats as far as I've understood.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

While VC-1 is only partially accelerated, you will still prefer this card (or a 9500) over a G98 based one, because you get de-interlacing for higher resolutions/frame-rates and no H.264 deficiencies.

Carl, you know more about VDPAU than most, can I persuade you to elaborating on the 9500GT's deinterlacing capabilities?

I've started a thread about it here.

Kind regards

No, because I've never seen one;-)

Thanks for your information,...
Finally I've also found this in appendix H of the readme,.. I've just overread it, because it only refers to the GPU name (G94 or so).

What does partial acceleration exactly mean? Is it that there's always some software calculation, or just in some specific modes?

thx,
Chris.

Yes.
It also means I cannot decode VC1 720p with a G96 without immediate de-sync on my Pentium 500, but you will not see much difference between G98 and G96 on a more decent computer.

Doesn't the GeForce 9600GT have a G94 (and not G96) GPU?

Yes.

If we agree however, that above-mentioned link ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Li...html#id2583935 indicates that G94 and G96 use the same PureVideo device, that does not make any difference for what I've said (that you will very likely prefer faster cards with de-interlacing for higher resolutions over a Geforce 8400 G98 that does fully accelerated decoding for VC1).

Unfortunately my mplayer claims that i wouldn't have an vpdau device... :-(

(Apart from some other errors coming with the new GPU, no more console-terminals,... two buggy mouse pointer on the X screen where the pointer is _NOT_)

Complete, uncut output of mplayer -v -vc ffh264vdpau yourfile - if it is a h264 file - needed (and maybe test vdpauinfo first, if it does not report a vdpau decoder, mplayer will not work).

Unfortunately I find different information whether VPDAU is supported or not. Is it definitely supported and if so fully (H.264, VC-1, etc.) or only partially? Thanks, Chris. Update: To clarify the subject: I meant the 9600GT chipset. Last edited by calestyo; 05-20-09 at 07:22 AM. Reason: clarification

It is able to do hardware assisted decoding of all formats - some fully (h264) and some partially (MPEG1, VC-1). It should be sufficient to decode all formats as far as I've understood. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. __________________ Desktop: Asus P5B Deluxe, Core2Duo E8500, 2GB Corsair 800MHz CL4, Gigabyte GTX460 1024MB HTPC: Asus P5B-E, Core2Duo 6300, 1GB Corsair 533MHz, Asus 9500GT w/ 512MB DDR3 Server: Gigabyte D510UD, Atom D510, 2GB Corsair 800MHz, Hauppauge NOVA-T500 dual DVB-T tuner, 4x 2TB Samsung F3EG (RAID5) Laptop: Asus U6V, Core2Duo P8400, 3GB DDR2, 9300M GS OS on all: Gentoo Linux Bought a computer bundled with windows?

I've started a thread about it here.

Finally I've also found this in appendix H of the readme,.. I've just overread it, because it only refers to the GPU name (G94 or so). What does partial acceleration exactly mean? Is it that there's always some software calculation, or just in some specific modes? thx, Chris.
