blobo Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 (edited) I'm Running Vista Professional (32bit) on my thinkpad x61s laptop. I'm having troubles getting EVR to work with DVBViewer. EVR works well with programs like MPC homecinema, but in DVBViewer the colors seem to be messed up. The reasons why i would like to use EVR: 1) VMR9 causes DVBViewer to crash on startup 2) Overlay is not usable since I use external monitor with extended desktop setting, and with overlay the picture only shows up on the primary display 3) VMR7 is the only one which seems to work, however, i get a lot of frame drops while using it. Besides the color problem, EVR seems to run smoothly without dropped frames or what so ever. Here is a sample picture of the problem: http://img88.imageshack.us/my.php?image=64238742sn9.jpg I have a very strong feeling that the problem has something to do with my graphics adapter drivers.. however, i'm using the newest ones provided by IBM, so there's not much to be done there.. Intel provides newer drivers already, but they will not install on my laptop (tells me to get the newest driver from lenovo)... Just thought to ask if someone else has had similar problems, or if there is some settings i should try to change. I'm using the newest 3.9.2 version and "Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family" driver is dated 13.9.2007 (7.14.10.1329) support.zip Edited February 3, 2008 by blobo Quote Link to comment
RR7 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 same thing happens to me, i'm iusing an Intel 945M chipset which has the GMA950 i beleive, using latest drivers from intel. i dont actuially use the EVR so i'm not too bothered, but i can confirm this 'issue' Quote Link to comment
freitasm Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Same here. I am using EVR on a media PC running on an Intel 945GT graphics adapter. It is nice and smooth with EVR on, but three out of seven channels show this colour problem. Quote Link to comment
Adam T. Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Same here. Vista 32bit EVR on Lenovo R61i notebook with Intel X3100 integrated graphic card. Quote Link to comment
TJMacGyver Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I have the exact same problem with an x61s I have found no solutions !! Quote Link to comment
Lars_MQ Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 ask intel. obviously a driver bug. Quote Link to comment
kbking Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) ask intel. obviously a driver bug. I have same problem but on a HP AMD computer so I dont think it is an Intel driver problem Edited April 22, 2008 by kbking Quote Link to comment
Lars_MQ Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 HP AMD computer With a intel graphics card? Quote Link to comment
freitasm Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Contacted Intel... After a couple of e-mails where I provided versions, system information, etc they asked me to contact the board manufacturer. Since more people have this problem and from what I found in my own board it sees to be only on Intel 945 Chipsets, I think I will contact them again... Quote Link to comment

savenlid Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I also have the same MB and the same problem, Vista Ultimate 32 bit, although the EVR displays ok on the HD channels. Vondoogle Its listed as a bug(limitation) by Intel in their release notes for the latest driver dated August 22, its clearly nothing they are in a hurry to fix (or maybe even can fix) I need to use VMR7 / VMR9 /Nicholas Quote Link to comment
