Seems that MPA is merit to high.

Reboot each time and, config, then.

ffdshow correctly configured for mp3 :

music mp setup :

radlight ffdshow audio :

radlight mpa :

mp3 file information played :

render mp3 file or mymusic create graph are same :

The only way for ffdshow audio codec mounted instead of mpa is using MPC.
Configuration of Media Player Classic with external filters :

remotegraph when MPC play file :

No MP log to produce and yes, take a bit of time to reproduce

Regards.

MPA codec merit is not set by MP. It's set by the filter itself, so not MP is to blame, it's http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli. To fix that you have to uncheck MPA/MPV on MP installation. This is all known and doesn't have to be documented anymore.

thanks,

Hello patricon,

Create a .bat file (for example : uninstall MPV-MPA.bat) with notepad.
Put these 2 lines inside :

Code:

regsvr32 /u MPeg2DecFilter.ax
regsvr32 /u MPaDecFilter.ax

Launch your .bat file y se hace.

Regards.

MPV is still hijacking video before it reaches ffdshow for me with MediaPortal RC2 & Vista 32 SP1. I cannot see an option not to install the decoders and the .bat file technique did not unregister them. Is there a way to uninstall them? Thanks

Everyone should have a copy of Filmerit (link in sig), great for all sorts of things to do with codecs, as always be careful what you do.

Ive managed to remove the MPA/MPV codecs. My problem now is MP is refusing to use FFDSHOW to decode MPEG2. See my other thread...
