[AndyBak]

I am windows 8.1 the youtube disable hardware acceleration fix worked for me but I didn't do it through explorer I used firefox.

We have a winner!

Thanks very much.

Where in Firefox do I disable hardware acceleration for YouTube?

[skyranger]

done !!!

[skyranger]

Just a quick add

I just built a new HTPC and was going to use the hdmi port off the asus motherboard z97-deluxe but it uses also the intel gpu chipset , also the resolution is bad for my optima projector.

Good news is to get round all this is replace it with a asus hd6450 graphics card , works well with DTS-HD also so great for xmbc also , loves hyperspin now and also all the mp4 vids work in the wheel menu !!

all happy now

Love hyperspin btw

I was having the same problem with game Videos not displaying correctly in Hyperspin on my Intel NUC D54250WYK with Intel HD 5000 graphics. I wasn't able to use the "YouTube" trick to disable hardware acceleration in Flash. Here is the page on the Adobe website I found Flash Player Help where I was able to disable it. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html

1) Go to section 5 (verify if Flash Player is installed) on the Adobe page where the test Flash picture is showing

2) RIGHT-click on the Flash picture

3) Choose Settings

4) On the Display tab (the first one) uncheck "Enable Hardware Acceleration"

I was going to consider an Intel NUC machine with the 4000 graphics but now I won't. I didn't get a chance to read the full thread but wondering if the same issue applies to the newer Intel built-in graphics? I guess instead of a NUC I will just get something larger like this:

Hard to beat that $120 price for case, processor, and motherboard. This is small enough to fit by the TV and will hold a few hard drive. I have a 5TB drive on the way so I'll just need RAM and I can move over the ATI 6770 graphics card I already have. Wamo! Done. A small machine to host Hyperspin including all the optical media systems that will cost about $200 or less since I already have the drive, Windows, and the graphics card.

Edit: Actually this has AMD Radeon HD 8400 graphics built in. Guess I can give that a try and only install the card if needed. Even better

I made a little software to fix the issue with Intel HD/GMA with Hyperspin and MP4 videos. Enjoy.

Just to let you know:

- It changes the 115th bytes on flash.sys file from 1 to 0 (and reverse).

Virus?! Or?

It works perfectly, thanks a lot

@BenjaminLSR thank you very much!

whats about the current updates from the new intel driver. still the same problems after updating?

[yellowmatter]

Tried the fix BenjaminLSR did and still get some glitchy videos in my surface pro. Any other way?

[coodkidd]

Thanks a lot @BenjaminLSR, just ran this patch on my Surface Pro and it seems to have worked great... Sorry @yellowmatter, not sure why it did not work for you. I'm running a clean install of 8.1 with all the updates as of today.

Confirmed fix for the Intel NUC D54250WYK, which uses HD5000! This is on a clean install of Win7, I had to install the flash player just to get to that setting, heh

[oakleys]

Well, the app above didn't work for me so I started tinkering... I'm using an Intel Pentium G3258 CPU (Intel 4xxx HD graphics).

I figured it out!

How to get videos happy with Hyperspin 1.3.x and Intel Chipsets:

1. Fire up Internet Explorer (other browsers will NOT work for this).

2. Go to adobe and install the flash player for Internet Explorer.

3. Browse to a flash video (just google "flash video examples").

4. Once a flash video is playing, right-click it and choose settings

5. UN-CHECK hardware acceleration.

6. Close IE

Worked for me on a Pentium G3258-based system and also on my Intel i3 NUC.

Cheers.

I am just about to go back to XP.

I have tried lots of things about my win 8.1 from the Windows sites about running MP4 to no avail.

I have tried the Flash one above but there are nothing in Settings to un-check hardware acceleration. I used the built in Flash player to Win 8.1 but maybe I need to download it.

I have tried the patch above by BenjaminLSR and it says it is already un-patched the first time I clicked on it.

Is there any other ideas to get MP4s running on Win 8.1 X64 ENG INTL?

Thanks

[oakleys]

Not sure about win 8.x... I'm using win7 for this bartop build.

All I did was open internet explorer, go to here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

downloaded the activex player, played a flash movie, right-clicked the movie and selected 'settings' and then un-checked hardware acceleration.

Win8 might be different but I'm guessing if you can get to the flash player/plugin IE settings in win8 it should work there too.

I guess if you can't find it, just fall back to win7.... no need to go to XP.

[oakleys]

PS- I just tried it on my win 8.1 desktop... no sign of the 'hardware acceleration' toggle in the settings. You might be able to find it elsewhere but honestly I'd just go to win7 and call it a day.

I have a Sony Vaio with Intel HD4400 and had this garbled video problem. I fixed it though; it took me about an hour to figure out how by myself. I have a hacked version of xp in my arcade cab and was sick of trying to transfer stuff back and forth between my cab and my Sony Vaio that came with windows 8.1 on it, so I grabbed a 2TB HDD for the databases and artwork to operate out of my Sony Vaio, use Photoshop and mint my unsupported sets faster.

Here is a shot of PC Engine main menu in windows 8.1 using the snipping tool to grab it:

My son set up the new HyperSpin for me and the MP4s will not play on Win 8.1.

I just put an 1942 FLV from the old HyperSpin in the video directory and it works perfectly.

Why did the new HyperSpin go to MP4s and is there anything wrong with going back to FLV files for the video.

[Firepowers]

So is it the graphics are much better in MP4 in regard to more animation and the quality of the video?

(Just have to convert them to FLVs)

Just noticed all of animations in the window are not playing with the FLVs. Might be an easy fix or maybe not.

EDIT: I think I have it all wrong. The FLVs do not play when I replace the MP4s, it is it just does not freeze the game but at least the menu works and does not freeze and you can select games. It is the MP4s on Win 8.1 just freeze everything.

[Codbo]

besides quality i think the mp4' s were a lot smaller than flv

[Firepowers]

The MP4s are a lot smaller file size but looks like the FLVs do not play but at least do not freeze everything.

I am still new with this and see the last part of my previous post I just included.

[DrMaxwell]

There is a problem in Windows 8.1 because of the hardware acceleration for videos within Flash. To see what I mean, go to your control panel, then device manager and uninstall your video drivers. Then start Hyperspin and I bet it will work.

[Firepowers]

I think I will have a problem doing that but maybe someone else can do it.

I have the new motherboard in a NeoGeo cabinet running ArcadeVGA 5000 video card on a amusement monitor running at 15khz to 30khz.

[Firepowers]

Can HyperSpin be made to use say VLC rather than Windows Media Player on Win 8.1?

I guess obviously not or someone would have done it. I just temporarily renamed the MP4 directory and everything works except the videos in the HyperSpin window.

Guess I'll have to ask Microsoft. Any more ideas?
