Issue 4954 has been merged into this issue.

Issue 3933 has been merged into this issue.

Maybe linked (only maybe because it is another EA game with another video playback problem): The Simpsons game (RSNP69) has problems with the BIK video decoder.

In Need for Speed Nitro it's the same (not sure if it's the same codec).

Bink videos on Dolphin doesn't like Force Bilinear and Anisotropic filtering at all
turn them off and videos will look perfect on DX11 and OGL, DX9 is pretty much corrupted itself even without filters Issue 1067

Issue 5355 has been merged into this issue.

SSX3 videos are unwatchable as well.

I've tested all APIs and
DX9 and OGL look's fine with Native x2, x3, x4
x1,5 and x2,5 cause little issues
both APIs looks fine with Anisotropic filtering
DX11 has the same things but it has negative reaction on Anisotropic filtering
and of course all 3 APIs do not like Bi/Trilinear filtering

Please don't generalize and try to combine different issues. And state exactly what games you've tested.

On DX9, the SSX games are not affected by changes to the internal res. or 'scaled copy' options. The videos are just corrupted garbage no matter what you do.

Ok, i've got
De Blob, Crash Mind over Mutant, Simpsons The Game, Def Jam FFNY
All games videos work pretty much the way i've described before, and i don't have SSX

How did you check these games were using VP6 videos?

Issue 5755 has been merged into this issue.

Issue 5766 has been merged into this issue.

EA game "Medal of Honor: Heroes 2" (Wii) suffers from the same issue.

Need for Speed: Nitro (Wii) has this issue.

07: Agent Under Fire has similar issues.
Are you sure all of those games are actually using VP6 Video.
The wiki Page: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=007:_Agent_Under_Fire
repoted that the game used VP6 video, but were infact MPEG2 video

I don't think dolphin can decode mpeg2 videos--or am I wrong--and that is why the video(s) are scramled -- on at least this game.

Dolphin doesn't care what type of video it is. The Gamecube/Wii doesn't have hardware-accelerated decoding. All that we care about is if we execute the PPC/GPU code the VP6/MPEG2 library uses correctly.

On future investigate (MPC video) = MusePaCk (not VP6/MPEG2) but a custom format http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musepack.
We're probably decoding the wrong format.
I'm not sure if the other games metioned use video/movies ending in .mpc

Yeah, Dolphin handles that kind of thing with LLE, providing a software implementation of the console hardware for the game to run on. A high-level implementation would potentially run much faster but compatibility would be quite limited due to an incredibly high number of complex opcodes to write a specific implementation for. The only reason HLE works as well as it does for the audio plugin is because of a lot of reverse-engineering on the part of the developers, and the fact that most of it is fairly standard.

oops, so maybe we need a DiretShow decoder for MusePack video...I'll do some test on my setup and see if I can get it to work for 007:Agent Under Fire.

We don't have any video decoders in Dolphin. The video decoder is part of the game itself. So it doesn't matter what video decoding it is using, the bug is more likely in the JIT and interpreter code for the ppc cpu.

Also musepack is audio.. it says it right there on the page you linked o_O

Dolphin does not care about what DirectShow video codecs you have installed on your system.

The best guess is that we have a bug in our PowerPC CPU implementation. Probably some tricky timing detail.

We're really never going to write HLE for video codecs. If we ever wrote HLE instead of a JIT (which will probably never happen), it would be for Nintendo's SDKs.

Harry potter and the prisoner of askaban seems to be having the same problem.I reall need a solution as this is my childhood

Please try again with the latest development version.

I am unable to confirm this fixed, still some graphical corruption on videos.

Still a different bug from the original, with probably a completely different root cause.

Software Renderer is working, appears to be an issue on my end.

A pic of the issue that is left with those videos:
http://prntscr.com/2gq200

I can confirm that's happening with me as well. Not happening in software renderer though.

Some of the videos in 007: Nightfire are still not working.

These are listed on the wiki:

https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=007:_Nightfire

i also get this issue with ssx 3 and ssx on tour, with direct3d is just a blurry mess but with opengl you can see the videos but they have lines all over them

The videos are still messed up in Need for Speed Most Wanted with 4.0-4674. It works fine with Software Renderer.

D3D: The videos seem to work fine with no Anisotropic Filtering and no Force Texture Filtering.

OpenGL: The same except it kinda works with AF (but showing some artifacts).
