Pixelated Video problems on Win7

Neither of those address or fix the problems happening here.

Shark codec is a good codec pack(with witch i haven't had any of these problems) and VLC 1.0.3 fixes the problem of pixelizaton.

So yes it has to do with your problems.

Except for two things:

1) Codec packs have been tried and none work
2) This problem is across more than just VLC as it also occurs in native WMP, so upgrading VLC has nothing to do with it

Hmmmmm

strange i never had that problem with any codec pack or player

Well at least i tried to help

I know! Your help is appreciated and I wish it were a simple codec issue (maybe it still is?). There's only a small(er) group of us that are having these problems and no one has come up with anything to solve it.

I tried updating VLC and it worked for me, I normally use The KMPlayer and ideas for that program?

Yes, I downloaded the latest VLC RC and it did not help. I've used, uninstalled, reinstalled the shark codecs and they never make a difference.

In the KMPlayer go into options>video processing click on the renderer tab and change it to VMR9 Renderless.

I tried switching all of the MP4 related codecs around in Shark's package while using his MPC-HC 64-bit edition and it made no difference. I tried all of the EVR/VMR settings available for MP4 files and nothing changed. Still terrible quality as compared to playing the same mp4 file on XP.

FliGi7: I am using MPC with the CCCP codec pack and have the same pixelation problem until I switch the output renderer to Haali or EVR (Vista).
