[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1207733, member: 82144"] For your original request (just in case somebody is still interested for some reason)... AFAIK in order for AC3Filter (or any other particular filter) to be used, AC3Filter must have the highest merit setting among all codecs that are capable of handling the media format. There are many available tools that could enable you to check and change codec merits (Filmerit, GraphStudio etc.). --- General warning to all readers --- In my opinion changing codec merits is a "power-user" or expert task because it affect all programs. I'd strongly recommend to learn a bit about DirectShow codecs and codec merits before you make any changes. I take no responsibility for problems caused by following the instructions below. --- end of warning --- Filmerit...
