Can you run it in "native" resolution, I suspect this is an upscaling problem ,and the only way around it is to zoom 101

[KawaiiDinosaur]

Sorry, I forgot to specify. I'm running the game on native res. Although, changing the IR didn't affect the lines.

[refractionpcsx2]

okay last thing to check, does this happen in the WX version of pcsx2?

[SlimDread]

Can confirm on Qt Windows 10 OpenGL HW on an Intel GPU. The lines strangely only appear on the Persona 3 intro and not the FES one.

No.

[refractionpcsx2]

okay cool, so this is the common issue with Qt then which some people seem to be getting, I'll mark it as such, thanks.

[KawaiiDinosaur]

Same thing on wxWidgets for me

[SlimDread]

That's weird. It doesn't happen to me on WX while it does on Qt

~~Not a bug.~~

~~The problem is with P3's FMVs themselves. They're interlaced videos but hard encoded as progressive. This results in a lot of strange artifacts.~~

~~Most likely the guy encoding the videos at Atlus had no idea what he (she?) was doing.~~

[KawaiiDinosaur]

@nfinite-recursion the issue is the pixelated line under the fmv, not the interlacing artifacts within the video.

[nfinite-recursion]

Ah, I see. I thought this was just the same old issue that was raised multiple times on NGEmu back in its heyday.

[Mrlinkwii]

is this still an issue on nightly ?

[KawaiiDinosaur]

It's still the same. The only fixes I found are switching to software renderer during FMVs, using the widescreen patches that stretch the FMVs (I don't think it looks good) or cropping the image.

[JWatersMeet]

A very similar issue occurs on Persona 4 FMVs - no borders with Software Renderer, but DX12 and Vulkan introduce white borders to the bottom and right of the video frame.

Seems fine now on native res.
