Missing "Pixel Adaptive" (6200 Series) HELP!

[jsidlosky]

My Nvidia PureVideo properties has no "Pixel Adaptive" mode!

Hardware acceleration (check)
De-interlace Control: Smart
De-interlace Mode: (Best Available | Display fields separetly | Combine Fields)

Set to Prefer VMR9 as well...

There just is no Pixel Adaptive mode... I read about other modes too, like Motion Predictive or something... I don't have any of those. I just don't get it. I searched all over, no one else seems to have this problem.

Here is my information... Any ideas, please help.. I'm running out of ideas!

Sage settings:
========================================
VMR9
NVIDIA Video Post Processor
DXVA MPEG Mode Default
DXVA Deinterlacing Bob and Weave
DScaler Deinterlacing Filter Disabled

========================================
Sage 2.2.8
GeForce 6200 (AGP) Using DVI Output (16bit color) (Tried 32bit too)
Windows 2000 (Service Pack 4)
DirectX 9.0c
Hauppauge PVR-150 (2)
Nvidia Pure Video 1.02.150 (Registered)
Nvidia Forceware (Beta) Drivers v78.03
========================================

One more piece of information... In the Nvidia Decoder Properties:

Decoder Format:

Software More UYVY
NVIDIA Video Post processor

I think that may be the problem... ?

Pixel adaptive disappears for me when I chose Nvidia Post processor... Have you tired it with just the normal Nvidia, or default?

Pixel adaptive isn't available when using post processing. You need to select Default or Nvidia Decoder. If you choose Nvidia Decoder then the tray icon probably won't be visible for you to make adjustments so try Default first to make the adjustments then select Nvidia Decoder once you get everything set like you want it.

DXVA Deinterlacing Bob and Weave should also be set to default.

[jsidlosky]

Awsome, it works.

Should I leave it on Default, or change it back to Nvidia Decoder?

I change it to Nvidia Decoder after selecting Pixel Adaptive and it seems like it sticks, no combing at all.

Next Q is, is Nvidia Post Processing with its non-pixel adaptive de-interlacer better or worse than Nvidia Decoder?

[jsidlosky]

Seems a little jumpy at times now... CPU usage is down to 25% while playing video.

Should I install reclock?

Are you running VMR9, and if so, are you running the latest beta? VMR9 has issues with field inversion when not using YUV mixing, which is only in the newest beta.

[jsidlosky]

I'm using Sage 3.0.11 beta if thats what you are asking.

Is there a seperate VMR9 "software package"?

I'm using the latest beta drivers from Nvidia as well.

[stanger89]

No I mean do you have VMR9 selected as the Video Renderer?

[blade]

I'd suggest leaving it on Nvidia Decoder. I've had some problems when trying to use default and FSE with the latest beta.

Nvidia Decoder looks much better than Nvidia Post Processing for SDTV broadcasts.

As for the jittering. What resolution are you running at? Do you have FSE enabled? If not try enabling it. You might have to close and reopen Sage or even reboot to get Sage to actually use FSE.

Oh, and yes, I am using VMR9
