Video Becomes Pixelated When Not in Native Resolution

If I play a video in its native resolution, there's no issue. But if I go full screen with a lower resolution video or just resize the video, either minimize or enlarge the screen as long as it's out of its native resolution, it becomes pixelated. This only happens with my ryzen 2200g pc running on windows 11. I tried using first this version >>  K-Lite_Codec_Pack_1540_Full, ran into that issue then downloaded the latest stable version I found couple weeks ago and still have the same issue. I've tried other players like mpv and pot player and they don't have that issue. This is the first time I used k-lite on an amd + windows 11 pc as I've always been using intel + windows 7 and never ran into this issue before. Image samples below. Thanks!

540p on a full screen (1080p) - image becomes pixelated





Played in its native resolution - no issue



same pc using Pot Player - no issue



i5-4570s running Windows 7 using K-Lite - no issue

Try different video renderer:
Options > Playback > Output

It is probably a bug in the AMD driver with DXVA2 scaling.

that worked, thanks. yeah i figured it was with amd affecting a video filter since other players didn't have that issue, kinda weird though that almost every other option there worked except for the default one.

Which one did not work for you? MPC Video Renderer?

Can you select that one again. Then press Ctrl+J to enable its debug overlay. Make a screenshot for me.

Yeah, that one. I'd also be using VMR 9 (renderless) from here on out.

And here you go.

In the options of MPC Video Renderer, uncheck the option "Use Direct3D 11". Let me know if that helps.

Yeah, that worked as well. Should I be using that instead?

Yes, that is better choice than VMR9.

aight, thx!
