Failed to create video decoder (on GT 500 series)

Post by Laxenade »

Hi, I just get DGDecNV and was trying to open a m2ts source with it and I got a <Failed to create video decoder(2)> error message.
Here is my gpu profile:

According to the other post with the same problem, I also checked the memory usage when doing so, the memory usage stayed at 300MB

Do you get it in DGIndexNV or when you open an AVS script? If the latter, please post your script and DGI file.

Does it happen with all files?

What is your nVidia driver version?

Also, please try this. Open your file in MPC-HC. Right click and select Filters/LAV video decoder. Then change HW Decoder to NVIDIA CUVID. See if it plays properly and report back. Thank you.

Do you need to do a "refresh" after the change? If not, the video plays perfectly fine

You can do that or you can exit and restart MPC-HC.

I'm going to make a test/debug version for you. Please check back in a few hours.

BTW, what is the frame size of your video?

How did you test that? You have to put it in the directory where the existing stuff is, that is, where the .cubin file is. You can't run it by itself. And did you have the 32-bit or 64-bit version installed before? You can't mix and match them and the error 200 suggests you are doing that.

Please make sure you have DGDecNV version 2051 64-bit installed. Then replace DGIndexNV.exe with the one I gave you. Test and report the result. Thanks.

I put the one you gave me inside the x64 Binaries folder, no error message showing anymore but still not playing anything, it just simply display nothing after i open a video file

OK, assuming your video doesn't start with black frames ;) , then for troubleshooting you can try installing an earlier version of the nVidia driver, as support for these older cards is currently spotty in the newer Win 10 drivers. Please start with 355.98 and report back. Discard the test version I sent and revert to the release version.

Another possibility is that you have some other CUDA/OpenGL application running simultaneously. Please make sure this is not the case.

Finally, can you test it with a 720x480 stream?

Thanks for your cooperation in troubleshooting this.

It does "work" with 355.98, just can't save the video to .dgi

Can you please be more specific? What error are you getting when you Save Project?

There was no error whatsoever, When I press the save button a dialogue shows up but with no information.

I suppose it should show the same thing as for DGIndex.

Can you give me a link to a sample file that does that?

That is very strange because CUVID is not even used during Save Project, so it can't be a driver issue.

Just to make sure the file is correct, I tried the same file in DGIndex, worked perfectly fine

Do you have any old versions that I can try?

You can always cut a piece of its head and upload. Try use some file split tools and cut out the first 100MB, reproduce and upload.
