tv-out. blue flickering with qtv output (coreplayer) - Touch Pro, Fuze General

got my raphael today. everything working fine - even the tv-out, but i got a very annoying blue flickering while using the qtv output option (does not occur when using direct draw or gdi....). did anybody else encounter that? ...and maybe even got a fix already?

The same with Coreplayer Blue flickering

The blue/green bug was fixed for our upcoming 1.3 version.

and all you need to do to remove blue-flicker is change video output setting

Yep, has been discussesd numerous times. Change the output settings to one that doesn't have blue flickering ;-)

Wow, good to know that someone from the CorePlayer also reads this forum!
Can you give an estimation about when the new release can be expected?
Thanks,
DeepThought

forget the tweaking, where do I get the darn vapor-ware cable?

Updated to the recently released 1.3, and blue flickering with QTV TV-out remains. I guess you were mistaken in the quoted post and "Improved QTv support with some chipsets" doesn't include the TP. :
Will you be able to fix this issue independent of Qualcomm opening the GPU, or is the ball completely on their court with this?

CorePlayer 1.32 Same issue .....
Hi,
Just to give you a feedback about my experience with the TV-OUT on TP.
I'm using CorePlayer 1.32 (the latest version atm )on my device, and really it's a damn good program to watch moovies and tv series form DivX, Xvid, Mkv format on the HTC device.
But as you know a 2.8 VGA screen is small. So, using the TV-Out feature of the TP is a great deal for a lot of us.
Now, here's what I found when I try to use the TV-OUT with coreplayer 1.32 (I use the original HTC TV-out Cable):
1- With QTV mode, TV-out performance is really good, and the image is excellent. But there is some annoying blue flickering at TV screen and frankly, you cannot use it to watch on an external TV. (Too disturbing!!!).
2- In Directshow mode, the image thru the TV-out is without the nasty blue flickering screen, but the image quality is not really good, and the the divx are playing with small frame rates (slow/skipping occurs).
So I'm sorry to say, that for the moment, you can't decently use the TV-OUT feature of the TP to watch a (MPEG4) video on your TV using CP 1.32.
Yes, it's a very disappointing situation for us TP owners.
Cheers

I've got exactly the same problem as the TP isnt able to produce a nice TV-OUT. DirectDraw looks crappy und QTV flickers.

TV-Out with CorePlayer
GOOD NEWS!!
I spoke with CoreCodec support group and help them understanding our problem of tv-out with qtv mode. today I got email back from them, they discovred this issue! (finally) and right now CoreCodec working on the next release which includes the solved to this issue. can't wait!!!

,) nice to hear very good news

I've a video as part of a review over here (it's the last video) where you can see the problem in 'real life'.
It's with the Touch Pro2, so with the existing 1.3.2 the blue flickering remains. But lets indeed hope for that new version!

hope so !!!! Thanx for the info.
Hope thaat the new version will be out soon (ie before Coreplayer V2 )

- Edit - Double Post Sorry -

All... we are aware of the TV out flickering issue. This is because of the QTv output limitation.
Although I cannot provide any details at this time, we are looking into/working on a long term solution to this and other GPU limitations that would be included in our next milestone version (ie; v2.0).

Thank you for your support!!
Just remember its a very imported issue for coreplayer's users. please don't be serene on this issue and found out the best way to make it better (fixed) also you make our (coreplayer purchased users) life much better!!! we are waiting for next good news from you...
Thanks for your great work,

Core Player Updated!!!

There is a new version of CorePlayer out (v1.1.3) that it is supposed to fix the video issue in the TC.

Got it. the QTV is working very well. I can't compare with the 1.1 version, but GDI benchmark on 320x240 is 149% and the QTV(for Kaiser, TC) is 239%. So it seems to have improved, but as I said, I havent compared with 1.1
still no test version?...great
A trial would be much appreciated.
Could it be compared to the last Freeware edition, the TCPMP 0.81?
Looks good!
I tried this test http://www.pdamania.hu/uploads/teszt.avi file with a free version 0.72RC1 and the Core Player 1.1.3.
Results:
TCPMP Version 0.72RC1 Benchmark Results
Average Speed 27.17%
Core Player 1.1.3
Average Speed 79.80%
I think this is the first step for the better video driver.
With the same test as post above I get 70.06%
That's good news. Too bad however, Coreplayer's interface is about as bad as it gets. Not to mention that the issues of performance are not limited to only watching vids.

This is serious
Can confirm that installing coreplayer 1.1.3 breaks the camera. it seems i can no longer take a valid jpg picture.
I have CorePlayer 1.1.3 installed.
Camera works the same as before, no changes
T
Camera works here as well, I can't see how installing this app would make any difference to the camera
Weird,
So i did a hard reset, and this time installed coreplayer 1.1.3 to the device, rather than the SD card. After doing this i get no problems.

I installed it on the device too, but problem remains the same even after the soft reset. CANNOT TAKE A VALID JPEG PIC ANYMORE WITH THE CAMERA.
Uninstalled Coreplayer v1.1.3 and after soft reset , camera was working fine again and I could see a picture taken in the album.
Even tried dissociating JPEG files from coreplayer's recognised files but no luck.
Anyone found the solution yet????
Thanks.
I have the same problem !!!
Has anyone found a solution ???
and has the guys from Coreplayer adressed the issue ???

Video drivers

Hi guys,
hopefully will be returning my I-Mate 9502 soon, and the only device I can imagine replacing it with is a Pro.
Are video drivers present? I read a few threads, but can't find a solid answer. Can the Pro at least play VGA video at full framerate? Can it do this through TV-out? I want to be able to play a divX video from my PC without having to convert.
Also, are there any other horiffic bugs/problems that I should know about that will stop me doing basic things?
Cheers,
Mike
I would also like to know answer for that question before purchasing touch pro. I learned from the mistake of buying kaiser without getting familiar to it's bugs before buying it.
Please someone run gxmark on your touch pro and tell me what score do you get! download gxmark here
edit. with kaiser i scored somewhere around 1550. So hopefully its at least that with touch pro.. and much better.
And please, someone with touch pro, run coreplayer benchmark and any D3D benchmark apps and keep us posted. Those numbers would tell us a lot how the device is managing. This would benefit all the users who are considering to swap their kaiser to TP.
Touchscreen Bug
Yes. I am also looking forward to touch pro. Only one thing interests me and hasn't been completely answered even in diamond forum: can anyone test if THE TOUCHSCREEN BUG from devices like tytn II still exist when playing a game that requires continuous stylus on screen (skyforce reloaded for ex, or call of duty 2). i saw some videos on youtube with a guy playing an emulator on the diamond and it was flawless. If that is the case, then I'm clear to buy this puppy.

I couldn't get gxmark to work, just got a plain white screen. I'll try something else later and test the video playing if nobody else does but I'm just having dinner right now
@ukdj78
If its not an issue can you try out this http://www.glbenchmark.com/GLBenchmark_Community_Full_1_02_WM5_CM.cab , you will need to register at www.glbenchmark.com to view the results. Can you post them here please?
Can you also try running this video as well
http://www.glbenchmark.com/videos/GLBenchmarkPro_High.wmv
Thanks.
Video playing is flawless using Coreplayer, and using the TV-Out cable has absolutely no effect on performance.
I'm not a big believer in benchmarks, but out of interest I ran benchmarks Coreplayer using DirectDraw, GDI, Raw FrameBuffer and QTV Display, just to see whether "QTV display" is still much better - it isn't - they all come out at roughly 140%. So there isn't the same sort of difference that I got when using "QTV Display" on the Kaiser, but the improvement isn't needed anyway (on the Kaiser the same videos would always return benchmarks under 100% unless I used the "QTV Display").
I've tried seven different 700Mb Xvid .avi movies, and they've all work perfectly. No page tearing or stuttering using CorePlayer. Haven't tried TCPMP, but I'm sure it'd work just as well.

Just ran the test, but I have no idea whether the results are any good. They're attached though...
Just tried a selection of video files from my PC in Windows Media Player on the Touch Pro and here are my findings (Video file info determined with GSpot v2.7):
.WMV file: 640x480 29.96fps 1257kps Audio: 44100Hz stereo 64Kps:
It didn't cope too well with it to be honest, sound was ok but the video only appeared to have about half the framerate of what it should be.
.AVI file: DivX 5/6 Codec 640x480 29.97fps 3164kps Audio: PCM 48000Hz 1536kps
Didn't play the video at all - got sound only (probably no video codec on device)
.AVI file: XVid Codex 720x438 29.97fps 1991kps Audio: MP3 44100Hz 128kps
Didn't play video or sound - came up with the message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file."
.MP4 file: 640x480 24fps 1601kps Audio: MP4 48000Hz Unknown kps
Played perfectly - Very smooth and not noticeably different from performance on my PC
.MPG files: Touch Pro does not recognise this format, wanted to try a PAL DVD quality MPEG 2 file
Looks like MP4 is the way to go for video files then
@sub69
Thanks mate. Its not great, almost identical to the Diamond in 3D performance, maybe the Diamond is a wee bit superior.
Any luck playing the video?
Thanks once again .
@ukdj
Try COrePlayer(which is 20USD) or TPCMP, supports a lot more codecs.
I'll try TCPMP then, used that a lot on my Vario II to play flv files but I originally didn't bother to install it on the touch pro cos I knew it could handle flv files since it had a youtube player built in!

I should declare that I had a few things minimised in the background (ActiveSync, Calendar, Messaging, File Explorer) and push mail was running, so it wasn't exactly a scientific test and I'm sure I could get marginally better results if I could be bothered!
We would expect it to be pretty much identical to the Diamond anyway, wouldn't we?
Video is very jerky if you just try to play it in CorePlayer, but if you run a CorePlayer benchmark on it, it's as smooth as you like. Odd. Much better in WMP, but still jerky.
@sub69 I'm having a little issue with text message notifications, could you do me a quick favour and try this on your touch pro: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418089 If you want me to send you a text message to try it out Private message me with your mobile number and I'll send the word "test" to you!
The processor scores maybe higher although I doubt having minimized apps would have affected the 3D benchmarks. Since a lot of folks have mentioned that TF3D is smoother on the Pro than on the Diamond wondered if it was some changes to the 3D acceleration or better s/w optimisation of TF3D.
Did you try to play the video using QTv? Any benchmark values for the video from Coreplayer? btw, that video plays on the Kaiser at about 9-10fps.
Thanks again .
(just wanted to say this) You guys are the best! So much needed info about this, keep on going!

Don't really wanna pay $20 for testing purposes, sorry and TCPMP doesn't work either - another of the many programs I've found which don't seem to like VGA screens I'm using version 0.72RC1 is there a newer one which might work or is this the latest?
EDIT: just found another cab file for TCPMP on the Athena forum which has a different file name to mine, will give that a try!
2nd EDIT lol: No, that was no good either - it wouldn't even install!
You could try the TCPMP which was rebuilt using VS2008 (its in the dev and hacking forum i think)??
gimme a sec i'll get the URL...
EDIT: Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380387
youve probably already tried it but if not, do
EDIT 2: Im getting my Touch Pro soon after i get back from vacation (a week or so) so i will encode some vids into VGA and see how they perform, ive found coreplayer to be great so far with my Hermes so will have a straight comparison using the same files benchmarked both in QVGA and VGA versions on both devices.
Might be worth stating what kinda of formats people are using aswell (XVid/DivX, H261 etc....)
Try the one in this post, this is working on the diamond so high probability it will work on the touch pro.

I found changing the "Normal buffer size" to about 8000 kb improves video playback dramatically of an XVid file. This video was designed for the Tilt however with a 320x240 video size. I'll have to wait and see how it plays something at 640x480.

I guess that the smoother TF3D on the Raphael will be because it's a later build (later than any I ever saw in my Diamond ROM's, anyway).
Didn't get a percentage value for that video...I guess that because of the filetype, CorePlayer "benchmarks" it differently? CorePlayer just told me the bitrate and properties of that high-def file when I ran it's benchmark to the end. Again, QTV, DirectDraw, RawFrameBuffer, and GDI all looked pretty much identical to my untrained eye, but this time I didn't have percentage values to confirm that...
Can i play a 700MB 640x480 X-Vid (or wmv,...) file on a touch pro with coreplayer smoothly? or even a 2x700MB movie? (-->means double bitrate)
Sorry if the question is stupid, but i always read no concrete answer. (means YES or NO)

For people having problems to download this file: Try another browser instead of Internet Explorer.
I could download it with Firefox, but when I tried to download it at a friends place with IE, it failed.
So I tried it at home with IE, also problems.
Tried it again with Firefox: No problem
have no problem downloading it with IE7..
you should ditch firefox. its the most sucky browser there is.. go check Opera if you insist on having a better browser as this is the only one better then IE7.

I hope you're joking! IE7 is terrible. Firefox is vastly superior and can be customised nicely! Opera is great on the PC (Not a huge fan of it on the PPC though); If you want speed, Safari is what you need!

I just tried this out and was very surprised to note that it played a full size 700 mb movie as well as Coreplayer with "QTV Display". I was only expecting it to be as good as "directdraw" on coreplayer, slow and jittery.
Has anyone tried this program with the TV Out cable? I wonder if it would still have the blue flicker reported when using Coreplayer and TV Out.

Great, I hope it works. Based on the reviews on Coreplayer and it's TV Out, I'd kind of lost hope on video performance for this phone.
I installed it and got a message that it is outdated and go to mobile.divx.com to get the updated player. The problem is that it requires a login and gives no option to "join". How can I get the updated player??

Awesome. Can someone confirm the video quality over TV Out with this program? The two questions I have specifically are the following: Does the processor slow down any further when exporting via tv out - or does the tv out hardware take over? Also - when exporting to a widescreen tv, does the image stretch to the right aspect ratio, or does it only get wide making the image look fat?
Sorry P0ll0L0c0 unable to confirm TV Out performance as I don't have a cable, I can confirm that the app's not bad, it does however reset your backlight settings to 5 mins on battery and 10 mins on power but forgets to return them to original settings on exit.
Other than that, good work.

got my pro and the tv-out cable today.
from what i can say is that the divx player sucks big time
coreplayer is the one to go for. but yes, i also have that blue flickering when using qtv. any fix for it already? still using the o2 stock rom if that matters.

I guess it must depend on the file. I've got a 700 mb copy of Hellboy that plays just as good on the divx player when compared to coreplayer using qtv. Since qtv doesn't work with tv out due to the blue flicker, the divx player has the advantage in my opinion.
I'm now tempted to buy a tv out cable to see how good output will be - but I think they're overpriced right now.
The Divx player stutters with every avi file I've tried on my device. Core player on QTV setting is by far the best (although you get the blue flicker on TV-Out). It's not too bad on the Direct Draw setting when using TV-Out, watchable.
Hopefully the next release of Core Player will solve this issue.
Guys I just chimed in on this thread. I just got my 8gig card and now I want to try out a movie on my phone. I have the latest version of TCPMP installed on my phone.

seems like u can either use coreplayer or the divx player on our devices. There is just a conflict weather it works with our phones TV/out. (Our phones can output video to a TV with a special cable)
im interested in this. Installing the divx player now to test some 700mb movies.

Erm...am I being dumb? I can't get video to play in CorePlayer on my HD2, what's the correct setting I need?
Thanks a million!
Update: Don't worry, I think I sussed it out. I've set it to GDI and smooth zoom to on and it seems to have done it. Looks absolutely amazing!
I want to buy the coreplayer for the HTC HD2 (http://coreplayer.com/content/view/28/69/).
Does anybody know which version i need:
The Windows Mobile PocketPC / ARM Version or

Same here...
No problems here
Im running version 1.3.5 without problems, been using the same release on all my PPC models
Could someone with good benchmarks post his settings?
I've tried GDI and Direct draw it works but a/v is asyncron after a while.
I tried Divx Mpeg Mp4 and Mkv Files.
Works fine here, with GDI and RawBuffer settings.
Both performance and quality suck when playing MPEG-4 files though; haven't tried any other formats, but the videos I encode render much better in HTC Album and WMP than in CorePlayer.
Help!
Please, let me know what I have to do in order to make core player 1.3.6 plays all videos CP 1.3. 0 played without any problem on my blackstone ...
I am getting crazy! This is the thing that inhibits me to love my new Leo!

Simply set output to GDI.

My HD videos won't play since I upgraded to HC3.2

Hi.
I've noticed that my 1280x720 h264 48KHz AAC 2700Kbit MP4 videos that play fine on 3.1 with the hardware decoder now won't play with 3.2. I get the dreaded "Sorry, this video cannot be played" popup.
I downgraded to 3.1 and the videos play again. Went back to 3.2 and they stopped. Something has definitely got broken in 3.2. Seems to have lost either h264 or AAC hardware acceleration. This is a major break
I raised a ticket with Asus, but unfortunately got a fob off answer:
"I am sorry to hear that you are facing difficulties with your Eee Pad.
A data wipe may need to be performed. Please back up all of your personal information before proceeding."
Just to humour them I did this with 3.2 installed and it doesn't restore hardware playback. I've pinged them back asking them to escalate to the relevant engineering team. Not heard anything back so far.
The trouble is that the soft decode players simply can't handle HD files at a decent frame rate, so it's 3.1 for me until Asus fix it.
Got a further reply from Asus support:
"MX, Diceplayer, Daroon, Rockplayer (also Rockplayer lite) and Mobo players should be able to playback most of the video files."
Completely missing the point! The files playback with HW accelerated decode on 3.1, but do not on 3.2. Open and shut case IMHO.
I will persevere, but I doubt I'm going to get a straight answer. Let's just hope they put out a fix in the next update.
Eh? Moved to Q&A? This is a serious break in 3.2 here and should be in the general section surely?
Hi,
I have the same problem (and a friend of me too). I will try to downgrade my pad and I'll let you know. I think it's a serious issue with 3.2 !!

Sorry, I can't tell you because I didn't manage to downgrade ....
I always stay on the 3.2 version.
Cheers,

Asus has replied to me saying that this is now a confirmed problem with HC3.2 (including v8.6.6.10) that should be addressed in the next release. A major break this. Shows a pretty shocking level of regression testing
Unfortunately they couldn't give me a date for the release.
Jumping in here, facing same problem.
But what I don't get is that videos recorded with the TF wont play anymore?
Im pretty sure they were playing even after I upgraded!
I find it weird that it wont play its own recorded video!
TF 101 3.2 Prime

It is a very silly break. Let's hope they fix it soon. I suggest you open a ticket to apply some more consumer pressure.
