hi,all

I am running a test:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

C:Documents and SettingsmzengDesktop5.3.2ipp-samplesaudio-video-codecsapp
licationsimple_playerDebug>e:

E:>simple_player.exe Batman.Begins.HD-DVD.REMUX.1080p.VC-1.TrueHD.DD51.DualAudi
o.D1.ts
Audio Render : DSOUND

Stream Type : MPEG2T
Audio Info :
-Audio Type : AC3
-S.Frequency : 48000
-Num.Channel : 2
-BitPerSample: 16

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem: only audio(voice ),no video( pictures).However,the media file works well under other windows players(voice and pictures come out successfully).

Qestion:simple_playerdoes't workor media file is no pure video?

Thanks a lot.

Looking at simple_player output I see that demuxer did not detect video track in your stream. This may be caused by several reasons, could you please share with us piece of that stream?

Regards,
Vladimir

hi,Vladimir,
Thank you for your reply.The video file is a little big(200M),I am wondering how I can share it with you(Maybe I'll open a ftp site later).
I think the reason of my question above is that the video file is not pure video supported by simple_player.Then I choose another way which is more important.I download pure YUV file ,and encode it to get a vc1 video file by umc_video_enc_con.exe as follows(I get the parameters by a player --"YUV Player Deluxe"):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:sharewin32_cl9>
umc_video_enc_con.exe vc1 -i blue_sky.yuv -n 217 -f 30 -w 1920 -h 1080 -o blsky.vc1

Starting MPEG2 encoding blue_sky.yuv to file blsky.vc1
Source video width = 1920, height = 1080, frameRate = 30.00
Max frames to encode = 217
Encoding bit rate = 5000000 bits per second
0.10.20.30.40.50.60.70.80.90.100.110.120.130.140.150.160.170.180.190.200.210.
Summary:
Num frames encoded = 217
Encoding Time = 4.99 sec, 43.45 fps
Overall Time = 5.90 sec, 36.80 fps
Average CPU usage = 49.60%
Encoded Size = 4553148 bytes
Compression Ratio = 148.24
EncodedSize/ExpectedSize = 1.01
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Further,I played the output video file "blsky.vc1" as follows:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:sharewin32_cl9>simple_player.exe blsky.vc1
nAllowedThreadNumber = 0
ThreadNum = 2
Video Render : BLT
-RenderFormat: YV12

Stream Type : VC1PV
Video Info :
-Video Type : VC1_VIDEO
-Resolution : 1920x1080
-Frame Rate : 2.00
nAllowedThreadNumber = 2
ThreadNum = 2
DecRate:26.56 fps(Dec 36.28ms/f + Conv 1.38ms/f = 37.65ms/f) RndrRate 0.00fps Au
dio Dec 0.00chnls
DecRate:219.42 fps(Dec 2.83ms/f + Conv 1.73ms/f = 4.56ms/f) RndrRate 4.97fps Aud
io Dec 0.00chnls
DecRate:302.83 fps(Dec 1.55ms/f + Conv 1.75ms/f = 3.30ms/f) RndrRate 4.98fps Aud
io Dec 0.00chnls
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is:when playing the video "blsky.vc1" by simple_player.exe,the picture is not good as I expected-- so slow and not clear.
I am not sure whether the problem is(e.g. encode,or decode).
By the way,the yuv file "blue_sky.yuv" link: ftp://ftp.ldv.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de/dist/test_sequences/1080p/
I am doing a test about vc1 video and I need your help.

I solved one problem:I input the unproper parameters when I encode the yuv file to vc1 file.
The correct parameters should be(refers to http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/howto/articles/vc1techoverview.aspx):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:sharewin32_cl9>umc_video_enc_con.exe vc1 -i blue_sky.yuv -n 217 -f 30 -b 20
000000 -w 1920 -h 1080 -o blsky.vc1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then, I get a clear picture now.
However, another problem ramains unsolved: The framerate when playing with simple_player is always 2.00, whatever framerate I input when encode the yuv file(Acctually,I usually input 30 as framerate to encode yuv file).

That is the piece of stream you wanted:
http://www.uploadbigfiles.net/download.php?file=67Batman.Begins.HD-DVD.REMUX.1080p.VC-1.TrueHD.DD51.DualAudio.D1.DISK3.DISK1.ts

By the way, my goal is to run a vc1 format video with simple_player successfully.
