This might shine some light

I think it's a must to have SetNumberOfStreams > 1

I also read "the number of streams for the renderer increases the video memory", but if the pin is not connected, then I think there is no penalty.

Mr Hipp

f there's no penalty then I think Eabin's way is the right choice of implementation. But still, why isn't DShowHelper implemented directly in C#?

    I have no idea why it's done like that. It could be due to performance reasons. Or c++ was the only way to do it
    at the time. But I am only guessing. :)

    that's good news :)

    about the color bug: i have no idea, and haven't seen anything similar with my dvds yet. is it always the same green/pink colors, or are they different on each dvd, but weird?

    the crashes i experience myself, but i haven't found the bug yet :( although they are 100% reproducable, and always happen to me when trying to stop a dvd which does not show a still image (e.g. in a menu).

    edit: here is a preliminary crash-free version :) i have to do some more testing, and will upload sources later.

    The colors are always like that. I'm using Purevideo codecs for DVD playback and will try with some other, maybe its codec related?

    Just grabed the latest file and will do some menu and crash testing.

    Update after testing:
    I switched to MPV codec and the menu colors are alright now. Just had time to test with two DVDs but had no crashes and navigation was displayed also.

    So the color problem is codec related. Does anyone uses Nvidia Purevideo to test with?

    Maybe my girlfrind will watch some DVD tonight (I'm at work) to give the modifications another test ;)
