GeForce ForceWare 260.63 Beta Download & Discussion

WHQL has nothing to do with how good the drivers perform!
It's a certificate that these drivers don't miss windows files during installing or after uninstalling.

 

After being suffering from constant lock-ups with almost every game for about a month (mafia2, crysis, deadrising2 and etc. no overclocking or whatsoever), I say *uck these set.
No regret giving up 1~2fps advantages and some s*it that nobody give a s*it about.
going back to 258.96

Being able to apply 6xSQ was all bulls*it, samples were all massed-up.

 

At the Nvidia Page there is a 260.89 beta listed, but not jet downloadable.

 

You can download it just click on Download.

Geforce Win7 x64 260.89 Beta

Hope this will fix the Movie problems.

Just saw that, but its not the most informative post ever, will test myself with MPC-HC/MadVR and also MediaPortal & PDVD10.

 

Huge problems (stuttering in full screen) with 260.63 and Windows Media Center here, but mpc-hc+madvr didn't show any problem when I tested 260.63

If you can, test Windows Media Center (watch a sport event on TV, is a good idea because of pannings, it should be easier to notice that something is broken) and look for stuttering when viewing in full screen

I will test 260.89 soon.

EDIT: tested 260.89, it seems there's no stuttering in WMC

 

I have had no problems with this driver on two different computers.One is AMD and the other is Intel.

 

I have also no problems with this driver in games and in windows, but i have
problems with MPC HC when i play movies in full screen, i get a lot of shutters,
and he plays not so smooth, a lot of people has this problem, MPC HC runs on
EVR Custom Pres. **

 

try 260.89

no problems with stuttering in Windows Media Center anymore for me.
After a quick test on a sport channel it seems smooth again as it was in 258.96

 

OK will try it now, let you know after i have seen a TV show, if the shutters are gone.

 

I have mpc hc on both computers and no studders and no problems.

 

No, still dose sh*t shutters in movies with MPC-HomeCinema.1.4.2499.0.x64 on
EVR Custom Pres. **, come on Nvidia whats the problem, why can't you make
a good drivers since Geforce Win7 x64 258.96 WHQL.

 

change renderer and see if it changes anything
madvr should be better than EVR for example
My setup with MPC-HC+madvr seems fine, everything is smooth, I can add avisynth postprocessing too
With latest 260.89

 

It is smoother with MPC-HC+madvr but still got 1 stutter.

maybe it's a cuss, i hope so gone look at another TV show to make sure.

UPDATE: no, i still have stutters in TV shows and Movies, but with
MPC-HC+madvr the TV shows and Movies play smooth, OK i got 2 stutters but
it runs a lot smoother then on EVR Custom Pres. **, thats one plus point

 

Download isnt working for the drivers here or on nvidia?!

 

HOW USE THIS CODEC WITH MPC ????:3eyes:

 

Simple, you download madVR then you install it, then you go to MPC HC and go
to View then to Options then you go to Output and in
DirectShow Video you set him on madVR and hit Apply,
then you restart MPC HC and your done.

madVR only works with the 32Bit version of MPC HC.


Links:

madVR v0.34

MPC - HC 32bit (x86) v1.4.2499

 

and what makes madVR better than MPC-HC's own DXVA codec?

 

features:

- high quality chroma upsampling
- high quality scaling (bicubic, mitchell, lanczos, spline etc)
- high quality YCbCr -> RGB conversion
- gamut & gamma correction for display calibration
- full 16bit processing queue
- final 16bit processing result is dithered down to RGB output bitdepth
- bypasses graphics card's video (damage) algorithms
- all work is done via GPU shaders
- no shortcuts, highest quality has priority over anything else

 

SIN! ... Yes I realize I can just get the 32 bit version but... c'mon ... it's 2011 nearly...
