I never had problems with the Haali splitter untill MKV's got released with HD audio. Haali seems to not be capable to play them. Their website doesnt have a forum, the last beta dates ages ago and a mail to haali one week ago hasnt been answered so you can imagine im fed up with that splitter.

I tried MPC splitter and no problems with MKV with trueHD but the subs didnt work. Then i found a thread (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...es-m2ts-mkv-mpc-splitter-matroska-mpeg-78177/) and got my hopes back that they patched the subs DLL and yay! subs work.

So i thought i was done but then MP was unable to play 50% of my regular MKV's, seems that when their are 2 audiostreams present (in my case DTS and AC3) MP is unable to play them, no error but it just switched right back to the movpics.

Does anyone have a sollution for this? So i can kick haali out for good

I use SAF and the latest beta (3305) of FFDSHOW. I tried posting on FFDSHOW forums, doom9 forums but like always no reply there.

:D

    Hi,

    I'll try to explain how make it work with MPC Matroska splitter for :

    1- Audio switching (from DTS to AC3)
    2- Subtitle

    What you need ? (you need to unregister Haali or uninstall it)

    1- Matroska Filter in source mode : Standalone Filter MPC

    2- Setup it in source filter with this Regfile :
    For x64 OS : Reg file to enable Mastroska Filter MPC in source mode MKV_MPC_ETC_X64.rar
    For x86 OS : Reg file to enable Mastroska Filter MPC in source mode MKV_MPC_ETC_X86.rar

    3- FFDshow for switching audio with Option "Stream Switcher" enable :

    4- Cpp2005 provide a patch (thanks to him to add this support) for the dll mpcsubs.dll that enable embedded subtitle.
    -> All working Good
    Link : Patch for enable embedded sub with MPC filter

    Now in MovPics or MyVideo, you can switch audio and see subtitle :)

    Ps : On some HTPC, i must disable Media Foundation with tool : Win7DSFilterTweaker for X64 and X86.

    I just setup hd audio bitstreaming on my 5450 yesterday and after taking the codec obstacle course this was the only thing that would keep me from removing haali... now i can... thank you! ;)

    Hi,

    I try to learn C# to add possibility of use it with or without FFDshow stream Switcher, but i don't now how, i think we must put an audioswitcher in graph or maybe other solution, because if we use streamswitcher make an issue about .m2ts audio stream.

    Thanks for you reports :)
    Great i'm happy :)
    Seb.

    dear colleague,
    thank you for posting this solution for enabling dts-ma and not needing haali media splitter anymore.

    this solution enabled me watching dts, dts-ma files without any problem.

    although, a different problem rose to me from that solution:
    xvid files can no longer be played!


    thank you for helping to solve the problem.

    Lasik.
