What driver are you using? I saw somewhere that you might have to roll back to around 337, so I did.

Ah, OK. I've got an I7 860 running at 3.8Ghz. Whilst an old cpu now it's still plenty fast enough, although I am looking at upgrading soon.

Thank you.
I might try taking the second card out then, although it has helped with Sonys' PMB editing side, but I don't need to use that anymore.
"encoding and box" what do you mean by box?

I bought PD14 Ultra last night and fitted a second GTX460 in SLI in anticipation of doing some 4K editing.
I tried hardware encoding a file today and it only showed about 20% GPU usage on one of the GPUs and 0% on the other and 23% cpu usage.
Does anyone know what sort of %s are normal?

I tried the trial version yesterday and it wouldn't load my 4K files in mp4 format, so I bought the ultra version and it loads them fine.

Recently I've noticed that if I watch some footage I filmed on my Sony camcorder with PDVD11 it changes my Acer HN27H's display settings and effectively locks me out of changing them.
Normally I have the brightness turned down to 0 as this display is so bright, but now if I watch a clip it turns the brightness upto 100 and when I close PDVD the only setting I can change in Acer eDisplay management is the contrast, brightness is greyed out and selecting any of the 4 preset settings or user default won't change anything. I have to log out of my windows profile and log back in to get control back.
Anyone else using this monitor and PDVD have the same problem?

Problem solved.
Don't use an HDMI cable, use a DVI dual-link cable.
I thought HDMI was supposed to be the Be all and end all cable..... Obviously not.

If I play them dierct on the monitor from camcorder I get no judder, so the display is compatable.
It seems that possibly the nvidia driver isn't compatable in that it doesn't have a 1080i 50/60Hz 3D setting just 24P, however it will do 1080P 50/60Hz in 2d. Doesn't the monitor see the same amount of data whether 1080i 50/60Hz in 2D or 3D, just handled differently? ie 50 or 60 frames of 1920x1080 pictures per second?

It seems to be working but............there's a horrible judder with any panning at all, which isn't there if I watch the 3d movies direct from the camcorder on the monitor, so I'm guessing the files are being played at 24p instead of their native 50i.
The files are almost unwatchable unless you have a stationary shot.

Looks like they took a while to filter through. PDVD11 has just told me there's updates although yesterday there wasn't.
Downloading now, so fingers crossed.....
Thank you.

Is there any update on this yet? It's been 6 weeks now.

OK, thank you.

Any update on this yet? If not do you know how long it might take?

OK, thank you.

Have you managed to check it yet?

One stand out point on that video apart from the lower quality in Powerdvd11 is (at 24fps) when the 2 girls walk across the car, they judder badly, but when viewed direct (50fps) they're smooth as silk.
|
|
|
When played in 3d this (and all other files) show the same 15MB/s but visually lower quality than when played in 2d. The camcorder records in 28MB/s so where's the other 13MB/s going?
PowerDVD11 sometimes has trouble recognising the 3d clips and will play what appears to be a single frame split in half over itself for the full video. So for example you could have the ghostly back half of a car on the left hand side and the ghostly front half of the same car on the right, it's messed up and definately not 3d.

Are you working on being able to play these files properly yet? Powerdvd11 doesn't seem to autodetect the stereoscopic vision properly, they seem to play in 2d converted to 3d and they look horrible compared to when I play them direct on my monitor through hdmi. They actually loose resolution in 3D compared to showing them with 3d disabled, even though the bitrate shows the same.
Also because they are forced to play at 24fps, any panning gives horrible judder.
I have an Acer 27" HN274H monitor connected to a GTX460 via hdmi 1.4 and intel I7 running at 3.7Ghz, 8GB ram and 6TB of hdd, so my machine shouldn't be the problem. 3d blu-rays play perfectly so far. Well the one I have at least. So the problem seems to be the way Powerdvd11 handles the Sony files.
Will you be upgrading PowerDVD to AVCHD2 standards to give us the option to play the files at their recorded 50i or 60i framerate?
At the moment I feel like I've wasted £80.

I have 9 hours of Sony HDR-TD10 footage, but your limit of 5-10seconds kills it. I'm struggling to find anything that short.
Edited to add, just realised Ican trim my videos, so I can pull some 10sec clips out of them.
