LOL, it really shouldn't be that hard.

What version of VS are you using?
What version of Windows are you building on?
What SDKs have you installed?
What env vars have you setup?

Well, I was able to build the filters (and MediaPortal) till Release_1.7.0. But as of Release_1.7.1_HotFix / Release_1.8.0 this doesn't work for me, too.

What version of VS are you using?
What version of Windows are you building on?
What SDKs have you installed?
What env vars have you setup?

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1
  
• Windows 7 Ultimate SP1
• SDK's:
  
  • Microsoft Windows SDK (v7.1) for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4
  • Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)
• Vars:
  • WINDOWS_SDK=C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\
  • DXSDK_DIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\

Well, after reading of "DirectShowFilters_Release.log", I have replaced all occurrences of:

[uuid("XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX")]
interface foo ...

with:

interface __declspec(uuid("XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX"))
foo ...

or

[uuid("XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX")]
class foo ...

with:

class __declspec(uuid("XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX"))
foo ...

and than I was able to build the filters (and MediaPortal).

Can you build the filters in VS?

No, following error multiple times:

..\mediaportal-1-release_1.8.0\directshowfilters\dvbsubtitle3\source\hdmv\ISubPic.h(49): fatal error C1001: Interner Compilerfehler.
(Compilerdatei "msc1.cpp", Zeile 1420)

..\mediaportal-1-release_1.8.0\directshowfilters\mpaudiorenderer\source\MpAudioRenderer.h(55): fatal error C1001: Interner Compilerfehler.
(Compilerdatei "msc1.cpp", Zeile 1420)

..\mediaportal-1-release_1.8.0\directshowfilters\mpaudioswitcher\source\StreamSwitcher.h(116): fatal error C1001: Interner Compilerfehler.
(Compilerdatei "msc1.cpp", Zeile 1420)

After applying the attached patch ("patch -p 1 < DirectShowFilters.patch"), I can build the filters directly in VS (Filters.sln) or with the batches in .\Build ("VS_Rebuild_Release_DirectShowFilters.bat" / "MSBUILD_Rebuild_All_MediaPortal_Release.bat").

Well all I can say is compiling works for me on XP. The only difference I can see between your setup and mine (aside from that I use XP) is VS 2010 SP1 - I'm pretty sure I haven't installed the SP. Since the "[uuid(...)]" syntax is a language feature (C++ attribute) the problem is related to the compiler - a patch, configuration, actual compiler being used. I say with 90% confidence that the code has nothing to do with the problem...

Have you got any other versions of VS installed?
Can you copy+paste the MP_DVB_Subtitle_3 project->configuration properties->c/c++->command line string?
In case it helps, mine is:
/I"F:\sdev\Code\MediaPortal\MediaPortal-1_random\DirectShowFilters\baseclasses" /I"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Include" /I"C:\Program Files\DirectX SDK [June 2010]\Include" /Zi /nologo /W3 /WX- /MP /O2 /Ob2 /Ot /Oy- /D "_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS" /D "NDEBUG" /D "_WIN32" /D "_VC80_UPGRADE=0x0710" /D "_WINDLL" /D "_UNICODE" /D "UNICODE" /GF- /Gm- /EHsc /MD /GS /Gy- /fprecise /Zc:wchar_t /Zc:forScope /Fp".\obj\Release/DVBSub.pch" /Fa".\obj\Release/" /Fo".\obj\Release/" /Fd".\bin\Release/" /Gd /analyze- /errorReport:queue

I think so, too:

When used in a project that does not also use ATL, specifying the uuid attribute is the same as specifying the uuid __declspec modifier.

BTW: MPC-HC and others have also changed their code because of this problem (years ago...)...

I say with 90% confidence that the code has nothing to do with the problem...

It's really curious, because I can build 1.7.0, which IMHO is using the same code?

Have you got any other versions of VS installed?

No.

Used "cl.exe" is Version 16.00.40219.01 (with an error in module "MSVCP100.dll").

Can you copy+paste the MP_DVB_Subtitle_3 project->configuration properties->c/c++->command line string?

Sure:

/I"..\MediaPortal-1-Release_1.8.0\DirectShowFilters\baseclasses" /I"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Include" /I"C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Include" /Zi /nologo /W3 /WX- /MP /O2 /Ob2 /Ot /Oy- /D "_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS" /D "NDEBUG" /D "_WIN32" /D "_VC80_UPGRADE=0x0710" /D "_WINDLL" /D "_UNICODE" /D "UNICODE" /GF- /Gm- /EHsc /MD /GS /Gy- /fp:precise /Zc:wchar_t /Zc:forScope /Fp".\obj\Release/DVBSub.pch" /Fa".\obj\Release/" /Fo".\obj\Release/" /Fd".\bin\Release/" /Gd /analyze- /errorReport:queue

Error 8 error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt C:\Users\admin\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\MediaPortal\DirectShowFilters\DirectShowHelper\LINK DirectShowHelper (Visual Studio 2010)

Had the same error lately.

I installed .NET 4.5 after VS Studio 2010. Uninstalling NET 4.5 and installing NEt 4.0 helped for me.
