Hyperspin Intel HD4000 No Videos

[sandman7793]

Let me know and I'll go check how I have it

[bluc]

I seem to have everything right but still no luck getting images to show up.

Ok when I get home from picking my son up from his mom I'll post some screen shots

[smorg]

Make sure to take the the videos out of the folder too.

[sandman7793]

That won't make a difference because my pc games media folder has both and it works fine.

I just got a Dell Latitude E6430 with Intel 4000 graphics and I have the same issue with mp4 files in HS, garbled video. I've upgraded to the latest intel drivers from their site and still have the same issues. The files themselves play in VLC and Window Media player just fine. I also believe that its a HS issue and not an issue with the drivers.

Is it possible to submit a bug to have this fixed?

[sandman7793]

This will not be fixed anytime soon. Only work around is to convert the videos back to flash.

Just letting everyone know that I have posted on the intel communities thread for the latest drivers about the garbled video issue. Hopefully someone takes note, but I'm not holding my breath.

Update: A dude called Allan is looking at it and he wants to pass the issue to the engineering team, I'm just helping him replicate the issue at the moment.

Hi Monyet,

Any update? Can you post the intel communities thread maybe if more of us post we might get lucky?

Think I found it:

The engineering department has been side tracked as they are currently playing Tempest. Please wait patiently until the head of the department is able to beat the high score.

There's no like button so I clicked thanks

I spent 8 years working at Intel. The video driver software devs "which I actually worked with for a couple years" generally only care that the package installs correctly and doesn't cause windows to crash. Outside of that, I think you HD users are shit out of luck.

Believe me, I wish they would fix this, but let's look at this the way they will.

Do Intel drivers allow MP4's play fine in Windows 7 and 8?

Why should they fix something that is being caused by a 3rd party app?

This issue is worse than trying to run a GMA chipset driver to play Minecraft. You had to revert to an old driver (try to find the one that actually works) and tell windows to ignore video driver updates. Intel has yet to prove they can actually do anything video related worth a damn IMHO.

Confirmed here also. Screen garbled.

Toshiba Satellite Laptop

Core i3

Intel® HD Graphics 4000

Has anyone been updated with regards to a solution yet?

Edit:

I've tried updating Drivers - No Dice

I've disabled hyper-threading on the core i3 - No Dice

[showstopper]

Yeah this is unlikely to be fixed. It's a shame. I personally think it is a HS issue and not an intel issue since all mp4's run outside HS. I haven't signed up to emumovies since I cant run the vids! Waiting for some more cash to get a new card.

Bummer for laptop users though.

Bummer since I am ready to start the electrical side on my first cab which is based on a n.u.c i3 with hd4000. Now I have to use jpeg instead of videos…

Sorry, I can't remember, but for those using HD4000 does this effect flv vids as well? If its just mp4, then just convert them with the emumovies conversion tool.

[bleasby]

just use flv instead of mp4 and they should wor. Emumovies has a video converter for that, and the only bad thing about it is that you spend a little bit more of drive space.

Edit: I posted at the same time as giga.

[Polemicist]

Great minds think alike.

Fools never differ.

[gigapig]

Interesting, we were thinking the same thing at the same time on an old thread.

I'm across the street with binoculars, a box of doughnuts and a bottle of shampoo.

Gigapig painting mental pictures. One day I'll be locked up in an insane asylum somewhere babbling about the evil pig.

Hi guys,

I haven't been very active of late, not because I made a fool of myself accusing boogieman of something he didn't do, but because my wife and kid have been away and I've been partying, a lot of drinking and other questionable vices. Anyway, I've dropped them a line a month apart, and will do the same this month too. Deadly is probably right, but I'm on optimist and will harass them until they fix it if they can. Someone back in the thread mentioned we should all create issues on the intel forums.

That's a very good point, please take the time to do this people and hopefully they might do more than give us a generic line that sounds like the typical company run-around.

I just bought a PC to use in my arcade I built and this was quite the bummer. However, the videos still work if they are in .flv format, as previously stated, in the latest version of Hyperspin.

[Polemicist]

What systems are gonna have this HD4000 issue?

[momentarydogma]

It's a lost cause, Intel's gfx chipset sucks. Save yourself time and a headache and buy the card I referenced earlier in this thread. Problem solved and you will enjoy Hyperspin 1.3 to its fullest potential

This isn't really a solution for a lot of people who are adopting the miniPC format, which is ideal for plenty of HS builds. You can't just add a dedicated graphics card to these systems. The built in graphics chipsets on Intel's processors don't "suck". Sure, they're nowhere near as good as dedicated GPUs, but there's no reason why you would need one of those for playing preview videos on a front end. People keep speculating that this is a HyperSpin issue, but I don't think that's the case either-- there's something off with whatever codec that EmuMovies is using for their mp4s that, when played inside of HS, is causing an issue. As someone else stated before, if you convert them to mp4s with ffmpeg, they work just fine, and I've also converted them to mp4 using other video conversion software and they play perfectly within HS, but there's no way I'm going to sit here and convert 1,000+ bum video files individually. For now, the solution seems to be to use EM's batch flv converter, but this is also not ideal because they take up so much unnecessary (and precious) HD space. Obviously, Intel doesn't give a crap about whether or not EM's mp4 files play properly within HS, but I can tell you for sure that you can convert them to a more standard mp4 format that doesn't take up any more space than the originals and they work perfectly, so this isn't an Intel issue. Simply saying that Intel sucks isn't particularly helpful.
