[QUOTE="Nazgulled, post: 365526, member: 86572"] I have a couple of questions about SAF if you don't mind: [B]1)[/B] To use PowerDVD decoder we need to place "CLVsd.ax" on the root of the main HDD. My question is, do we need to leave this file there or is it going to be copied somewhere (like "System32" for instance) and registered from there? If we need to leave the file on "C:" root, could you consider not too? I like my system organized and that's no place for such a file. Just a suggestion though... [B]2)[/B] Have you consider to add support for more filters/codecs/decoders from the PowerDVD 8 package? For instance, the audio decoder and the DVD Navigator? I just don't feel very comfortable by using Microsoft DVD Navigator, PowerDVD 8 video decoder and some other audio decoder, I would like to use all from PDVD 8. [B]3)[/B] Why exactly do we need to use some "on-the-fly" DVD Decrypter? Currently, I'm using Microsoft DVD Navigator and Microsoft MPEG2 Video Decoder (comes with Windows) and ffdshow for audio decoding and so far, all my original DVDs (which I supposed are protected?) played just fine. Why do you suggest the decrypter? Is it really needed? [B]4)[/B] What happens if I have some H.264 file compatible with DXVA in .mkv container without any internal subtitles but with an external subtitle file which as the same name as the .mkv file.
