- Render Method
- Controls the method used by the player to process and display the video, (which is called rendering). See Here for more information on the different options.
- Allow hardware acceleration (various options)
- Enables hardware decoding of video files.
- Adjust display refresh rate to match video
- 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
- ?
- Sync playback to display
- This setting enables syncing the video to the refresh rate of the monitor.
- A/V sync method [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 audioquality, 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.
- Display 4:3 videos as
- Determines the zoom level that 4:3 videos are shown on widescreen displays.
- Video post-processing
- Makes old/low resolution/blocky videos smoother. Blurs the image a bit.
- Activate Teletext
- Activate Teletext.
