galmok Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 I have never seen Mosaic work, yes PiP (Preview) works fine. I have no encrypted channels and have tried 8 different mpeg2 decoders to view the mosaic and only partial success. I tried Overlay and VMR7 modes (VMR9 is discoloured and I don't use Vista). There is no error at all. I enable Mosaic in the View menu and then nothing happens. The best I have seen are 2 images out of the 4 channels available on that frequency. I say images, because they are only updated once every 13 seconds. Are 2 channels the limit and can I configure it to show realtime video? The main video stream is realtime. This is with DScaler mpeg2 plugin. The results varied a bit with MPEG2 decoders: DScaler MPEG2: 2 of 4 channels shown. Every channel image updated every 13 seconds. GPL MPEG-1/2 Decoder: All 4 channels shown and updated about every 5-6 seconds. All channels severely distorted. ffdshow Video Decoder: Nothing shown. InterVideo Video Decoder: Nothing shown. MMedia MPEG2 Video Decoder: Nothing shown. Nero Video Decoder: Nothing shown. ATI MPEG Video Decoder: Nothing shown. Am I wrong to expect realtime video in mosaic mode? And do anyone with the above video decoders have any success? Quote
galmok Posted May 24, 2008 Author Posted May 24, 2008 Also tried limiting number of Mosaic preview channels to 1 but that didn't change anything. While Preview mode can show 1 channel in realtime, Mosaic, using the same MPEG2 Video Decoder, cannot do the same. Quote
galmok Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 Nobody has Mosaic working? Or have any suggestion to make it work for me? Quote
