Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2007 12:45 pm Post subject: DScaler Release 4.1.16 |
|
|
Apologies for the delay but here is the latest code
Get the installer from:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/deinterlace/DScaler4116.exe?download
and here for the source http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/deinterlace/DScaler4116src.zip?download
What's new (since 4.1.15):
General
Support for 64 bit OSes
Preliminary support of displaying on DirectX surface for systems without overlay (no multi-monitor support)
Support for compilation under VS 2005
Added more skins to install package
Should work on win98 (really really this time)
What's Improved
General
- The chances of DScaler hanging or crashing your system are greatly reduced.
- Sometimes explorer.exe hangs for a while when starting DScaler. When this happens and DScaler is started a second time dscaler.ini is not corrupted any longer.
- Fixed problem caused by Antivir.
- Improved resume after suspend.
- Fixed several problems that resulted in unnecessarily high cpu usage.
- DScaler shutdown is now much faster.
Lots of bug fixes
cx2388x cards
New card definitions:
Added new Cards from v4l2 - not tested
bt8x8 cards
New card definitions:
Curtiss-Wright cards
What's Experimental:
PowerStrip modeline option when changing resolution in the full screen mode
DirectShow support for tuners and file
Skins & Toolbar
Timeshift
Resolution changing
Colorimetry filter
DScope video filter
Thanks
John

Note the fix for the ATI issues should be in this release, the new overlay setting is Allow Bob Mode, experiment with this if you get problems.

Thanks for the new release, but ...
... when I start the software, I'm getting one of these errors:
ERROR: Can't create Display Memory
File: C:\Source\...\BT848Provider.cpp Line 242
ERROR: Can't create Risc Memory
[I can't reproduce this message, so I can't tell you the line number]
This also happened with the old version sometimes but there a (sometimes 2 or 3) restart helped. Before installing the new version I've deleted the content of my dscaler directory - so there shouldn't be any problem with my config.
cu boesi <- switching back to 4.1.15 |

| ATI works perfect now. So, once again DScaler is number one. |

How much memory does your computer have and what version of Windows are you using? |

Athlon 64 X2, 2 GB Ram, XP SP2 with all current patches, a quite old WinTV PCI (analog, stereo, no radio or remote control)
I'm using the driver from http://btwincap.sourceforge.net for some reason I don't remember.

May I help you to find the bug? I just looked in the code but I noticed that my knowledge in C/C++ is far too less.

The scheduler doesn't work for me.
I just use this one instead. http://tomyeah.com/dscalerscheduler-final-vcr-control-for-tvbrowser/ _________________ Pirate: Now how would you like to die. Would you like to have your head chopped off or be burned at the stake?

Yes, thanks for fixing the ATI-bug! Perfect timing as well, the football game Sweden vs Denmark just started and I popped in here to see if 4.1.16 had been released and it had! Round instead of square ball tonight.  |
