MPC not showing frame rate |
| Megahurts posted 2009 Jun 28 00:02 |
| I have 4 computers with WinXP and MPC. All play clips fine except 1t doesn't display frame rate. Just stays at 0:00 but will display buffer and bitrate.
Any suggestions will be appreciated. |

| WIth all kinds of video?
Or try just use mpc-hc and see if it works better. |

| Happens with all video formats and mpc-hc.
I've seen this problem on a friends computer awhile back but he never did resolve the problem. BTW: This is a fresh install of WinXP on a clean HDD. |

| Which frame rate are you talking about? The one that shows when you select File -> Properties? The one that shows when you enable View -> Statistics? The one that shows when you select View -> Display Stats? The latter two get the frame rate from the video renderer (graphics card drivers). If the renderer isn't returning that information you'll get zero. The one from File -> Properties comes from the file header. Some video files have variable frame rates and the value in the header may not be set. |

| jagabo, I think you're on to something.
It's enaable View -> Statistics (real time frame rate). I uninstalled the video driver and it works. Reinstalled the driver and no luck. |

| Select View -> Options -> Playback -> Output. Then try the different DirectShow Video devices. You have to Apply, exit MHC (or MPCHC), and restart it for the change to take effect. |

| Hey jagabo.... thank you very much.
The Playback -> Output for Direct Show Video was set to 'Overlay Mixer'. Changing it to 'System Default' solved the problem. Life is good again! |
