Codecs, External Players (84 Viewers)

Post problems with Codecs or External Players here!
You have to use the skin-file for Arcsoft and link to that file, the Window-ID is 8080. Setting the ArcSoft player as a DVD-player is wrong, you don't have to configure anything there. If you use any of the standard-skins the plugin will allready be active in your main-menu. Did you even read the description in the Arcsoft-plugin page?

If using the AC3 filter, did you enable mpeg support, think its under the system tab.

Hello Ray: If I use ffdshow and unchek AC3 in ffdshow config->output->pass-trough then the shrill sound dissapears. The same if I disable spdif passthrough in AC3filter. The spdif passtrough seems to be the cause. But there is no shrill sound with the stand alone players with passtrough enabled? Any workaround? thank you

That because your graphics do not support h.264 decoding, even my 7900 does not play nicely with dxva for other codecs, only mpeg2.

yes, that´s true. But for example I viewed James Bond - Tomorrow never dies on TV an when they were talking in a big room, I got the echo-voices from the surround speakers. No stuttering voices.

I recall an old hack to rename .vob to .mpg and then it plays. Don't know why and I don't know if it is still the case. Maybe you can test by renaming one of them and test in MP as well as in PS3. Certainly, MP will play a normal dvd structure folder with video_ts and ifo & vob files.

Bluescreens are invariably low level driver problems. Make sure you have the latest ASUS chipset drivers and Nvidia drivers. BTW, WRT your system spec, the H.264 codec is set in the same config screens as the MPEG-2 codec. By default it would be MPV. H.264 is what most high definition streams are encoded with. However, in Australia...

Have you actually checked that ffdshow is in the graph with graphedit? Assuming it is, I don't know the answer as to why, but maybe try going into the ffdshow settings and turning off h.264 / avc under codecs section. If you've got PDVD and a DXVA card, you really don't want ffdshow in the mix with h.264 at all. There is something a...

You can edit a ts file exactly the same as you can a mpeg file, most software treats ts as mpeg anyway, videoeditor and memcoder both work with ts, as does mcebuddy, but for that you need to change a couple of bits, especially MP's default setting for TVSeries recordings, which makes a folder that mcebuddy cannot at this time work...
