[QUOTE="1gkar, post: 396964, member: 53076"] My goals for ffdshow were to upscale only my DVD-transcoded collection (to *mkv format) with a resolution less than an HD format of 1280x720. I wanted to upscale to my LCDTV's resolution of 1360x768 so as to minimise the CPU load, on my C2D4600 HTPC, for better use of effects within the ffdshow app: eg. sharpen, blur & NR, etc. I found no way to avoid ffdshow activating on ALL media file types if I set the Raw Filter inside postprocessing as stated in the [URL="https://www.team-mediaportal.com/manual/Postprocessing"]WIKI[/URL]. The ONLY filter I have activated in 'MP Config>movies>Movie Post Processing' is Direct Vobsub for subtitles. These are my settings: I installed ffdshow pretty much with the default settings, and enabled the raw video to 'all supported' in the 'codec' area. Most of my research was off [URL="http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=719041"]this[/URL] thread. I will not go into my tweak settings for ffdshow, as this thread is about getting upscaling to work with specific media files, & I am still working on them :D As you can see, I only have a single "default" profile set. [IMG]http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/443/ffdshowprofilesshowingo.jpg[/IMG] As all of my lower res. movies use XVid or DivX encoders, I used a FourCC match with these filters. My resize setup is as follows: [IMG]http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/5278/ffdshowprofilesshowingr.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2825/ffdshowprofilesshowingrc.jpg[/IMG] These settings are still experimental & just an example of how to set the profile up. Here is proof, using Graphedit, that only my lower resolution rips activate ffdshow: [IMG]http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/2882/ffdshowresizedgraphedit.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/6629/hdmoviesgrapheditfilter.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6718/ffdshowmovie2withosd.jpg[/IMG] If anyone has any ideas on how to order specific ffdshow activation with PAL SD TV channels (we have one non-FreeviewHD channel that has a pretty good programme selection), it would be greatly appreciated. This channel uses an MPEG2 @ 720x576 as opposed to the MPEG4, H.264 @ 1280x720p & 1980x1080i codec of FreeviewHD in New Zealand. [/QUOTE]
