Playback
Setting | Description | Setting Level |
---|---|---|
Preferred Audio Language | Sets the default audio track when different language tracks are available. | |
Play next video automatically | When selected this enables automatic playback of the next file in the list | |
Adjust display refresh rate to match video | Defines when the refresh rate adjustments should take place.
Activate to automatically set the refresh rate which is best matched with the video that is playing (default off). This potentially allows for perfectly smooth video reproduction, as video material can be recorded in a variety of frame rates (23.976fps, 24fps, 25fps, 29.97fps, 30 fps, etc.) which need to be properly matched by the refresh rate of the display, in order to be displayed smoothly. |
|
Pause during refresh rate change | Inserts a pause for the computer to adjust refresh rate. Sometimes needed to prevent things like slight stuttering when a video starts. Range 0.1 milliseconds to 20 seconds. (default off) | |
Sync playback to display | This setting enables syncing the video to the refresh rate of the monitor. | |
A/V sync method | Options: Audio Clock, Video Clock(resample audio) or Video Clock(Drop/Dupe Audio)
Audio has to stay in sync, this can either be done by resampling, skipping/duplicating packets, or adjusting the clock if it gets out of sync too far. Resampling has the advantage that the speed of the video can be changed considerably, so 24 fps can be sped up to 25 fps to play at PAL speed. The disadvantage of resampling is that it doesn't work with passthrough, and there is a slight loss of audio quality. Skipping/duplicating audiopackets has no loss of audio quality, but the speed of the video can only be changed a little to avoid doing a skip/duplication too often, most of the time it's inaudible, but it can produce a very audible click. Adjusting the clock has the best audio quality, but some extra video jitter can occur, also the speed of the video can't change much, as the audio will sync the clock more often the more the speed of the video is changed. |
|
Allowed error in aspect ratio to minimize black bars | Allow video player to try to fit video to screen by ignoring aspect ratio by a certain amount. | |
