In your FAQ it says: Q: What video container SAF can play?
A: SAF can play:
-*.AVI
-*.MKV
-*.MP4
-*.MPG
-*.m2ts
SAF cannot play:
-*.ASF and *.WMV (microsoft format) - you should be able to play this format by default OS decoders
-*.WMV with HD video (VC-1) wil use DXVA if available
-*.MOV - you need to install QuickTime Source DirectShow Filter (QuickTime DirectShow Source Filter - MediaLooks)
-*.RM - you need to install Real Alternative (Download Real Alternative)
-*.TP - MediaPortal have its own support
This must be incomplete, right?
how about for instance the containers .flv, .ts and .wmv (without hd video)?
And what does SAF cannot play: WMV with HD video (VC-1) wil use DXVA if available mean?
And another thing. You say:
Q: Can SAF handle video streams?
A: Yes, using Online Videos MP plugin, MP4, FLV, WMV and MOV streams are suported (maybe AVI too)
So in the first question and aswer you say it doesn't support wmv and mov files, and here you say it does...how does this work?
What decoders do you recommend to use with .asf and .wmv containers?
Can other decoders be chosen to decode x264 content, or do I have to use the mpc-hc decoder after installing SAF to decode x264, for instance CoreAVC, DivX h264 decoder, PowerDVD h264 decoder, etc.?
I would like to know as much as possible before cleaning out my system, which has almost everything working, before starting to install SAF...
