VLC 1.1.1 is out: GPU decoding for ATI
VLC 1.1.1 was just released! A lot of bugs were fixed, and now, GPU decoding works on ATI cards! You need Catalyst 10.7 to use DxVA on your ATI GPU.
Other important news: libVLC has a lot of new useful functions, like libvlc_set_user_agent(), or libvlc_video_set_callbacks() and libvlc_video_set_format() to replace the –vmem-* hack.
Enjoy this new release!
Hmm, errr…
can I make a question about VLC?
What is the status of project M? it was mean to come a long time ago, nobody says anything on the matter… any clues?
The projectM visualization plugin works fine on Linux, but we will need a lot of hacks to make it work on Windows.
I’ve found a bug where the colours are switched for the subtitles. Like, the subtitle is blue in another player and in non-dxva mode, but in DXVA mode, the subtitle turns to yellow/gold. It also seems like yellow/gold colour turns blue when DXVA mode is enabled.
