[QUOTE="jazbo8, post: 378302, member: 88372"] Yes, I did uninstall everything as you suggested, installed SAF, etc., but I still got poor audio, so I went back and reinstalled AC3Filter, ffdshow and ran more tests without much success. As I suspected, it turns out the trouble that I was having had nothing to do with the codec's but rather with my graphics card. As I mentioned, the CPU load when playing 1080p mkv file was very high, so basically the system was chocking and causing audio dropouts and stuttering. I went out and bought an ASUS 4650 card (I needed one without fan, and that was the only one I could find in the stores), and lo and behold, with H.264 hardware decoding done by the GPU, the audio is running just fine. So, this is the latest setup I have - SAF 3.3, MP 1.0 with MPC and MPA for H.264 video and audio decode respectively.:thx: Jaz [/QUOTE]
