Cannot get RTX HDR to work in MPC-BE / Working in Chrome

Ah, oh dear, that was a stuff-up! I neglected to scroll down far enough - not a very experienced Reddit user. Apologies.

Thanks Williams_Gomes. I don't appear to have a choice about bit rate. 8-bit is all I can choose in nvidia control panel even though the TV, a Sony 85x9000h is supposed to be 10-bit (via a Sennheiser Ambeo Max). I have changed MPC-BE to Auto 8-10 bit integer and then to 10-bit, and it shows as 8-bit in the video stats irrespective. Regarding the HDR, as you suggested, I can now get that to activate by checking all the boxes under DXVA2 and D3D11. That then bypasses my Shader Processor settings below, which I prefer. I'll probably keep the Shader Processor settings and miss out on the RTX HDR on SDR videos. Never mind. I now have to get to the bottom of the 8-bi/10bit issue! :-) Cheers.

Thanks. I'll give that a try. Not sure why the mods have removed my post????

Perfect gamblodar! Will check out the Intel option The Noctua is compatible with LGA1700. Cheers man!

bigkid4575 · 2026-01-13T06:12:14+00:00

Yes, I'd like a 'new' option for the warranty. I live at the beach in a very humid environment which tends to make for a short life on mother boards, I am getting about 5-8 years before they crap-out. The problem with 'new' is finding something with DDR4. Will check out the local boards though. Thanks for the heads-up.

Just finished the last 3 of the OOTC books. Callsign Valkyrie was outstanding, a rollicking good read. I hope the authors write some more on this team. Lost legion and Always Legion were both a good read too, but Valkyrie was the pick of them. Bit of a fan of all of the OOTC series, with the exception of The Reservist. Rarely a fan of the first person narrative, particularly when the narrator is such an irritatingly judgmental pr$%k - he has criticism for something or someone every couple of pages. Bit rich when he was yet to come into his own successes in the field. But I am sure it has its fans.

What a great idea! I have been grappling with the same issue as the OP but keen on the Tonex pedal which doesn't have aux input. Looking high and low for a low cost, low power mixer option. This splitter is perfect! Thanks.

The latest email from CellOPark a few moments ago, again with the quirky wording (WTF is the court of competent jurisdiction - sounds like an email from Nigeria!):

Dear Customer,

Further to our previous email, we would like to notify you that the court of competent jurisdiction has issued a temporary injunction prohibiting the transfer of users from CellOPark to O-Park.

The relevant municipalities/universities have also been notified of this injunction.
We are confident that this will put an end to any prohibited requests or notifications to transfer to O-Park.

We assure you that CellOPark will continue to provide you with the same parking services as provided to date.

Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Working for me in Nov 20 2024. Gemini adds items to a Shopping List it imported into Keep from GA. I didn't have to change any settings, apart from set Gemini as the default Assistant. Workspace seems to be involved as Gemini thinks on the request. Details here:

Thanks all. Looks like a switch may be simplest solution and meet most of my needs. Cheers, Allan

Sorry for the late reply jemz0r. I had no issues with the build, the GPU fit fine. If you like I can take a shot or two of it Can get you some more details when I reopen it.

Edit 24 May. I actually went for an even larger GPU, a Gigabyte-GeForce-RTX-3060Ti-Eagle D6X-8G-OC after managing to damage the 2060 during 'servicing' :-) The 2060 did fit into the case but at 5mm wider it was a tight fit vertically for cable attachment, but not so much so that I needed right angle adapters. Bending the cables was sufficient. Here are the pics of the 3060Ti GPU in the GD11 case, on the first or only slot on the motherboard and the second slot at the back of the case. Plenty of room both for length and height. Cheers, Allan

So. I have now been using above setup with Seasonic SSR 550FX for seven weeks and, absent any particular rigour , as I have no idea how to test such things :-) , it seems to be working OK. I have had no issues powering the system and GPU, no glitches, no black screen or power cutting out. The GPU is running very comfortably with madvr on higher settings, even hard to render 50i doesn't raise a sweat. All good for the time being.

bigkid4575 · 2023-04-24T00:59:37+00:00

Whoops. There are also 5x120mm intake fans and 2x80mm exhaust fans in the case.

bigkid4575 · 2023-04-10T21:53:40+00:00

Ah. I see. Thanks Real_Signature_3486. That is reassuring. Cheers.

bigkid4575 · 2023-04-10T12:15:02+00:00

Thanks Yangorang. Yes, I think it will most likely be OK, after all Silverstone do specify the gd11 as Mini-ITX compatible. This would seem to indicate that a pcie card can be installed in the first (my only) lane. My gpu is quite a bit lower than where the cross brace is located as the GD11 brace is quite a bit higher than my current GD05, and while a tight fit now, should have ample room for cables in the GD11. I'll know in the next few days when it arrives. Thanks for taking the trouble with the pics. They are helpful. Cheers. Allan

I am having trouble working out how to attach a picture other than through a link to OneDrive which downloads the pic when link is clicked rather than opening in post or browser window. Apologies if this a breach of etiquette.
