Looks like you GPU is not powerfull enought for "Surface overlay" (subtitles rendering). Even my ATI 5450 doing this without any problem.
VC-1 DxVA id disabled by default, becouse it doesn't support interlaced VC-1. You can enable it, but you will have black screen on interlaced VC-1.

Thanks Hoborg. My GPU is a 9600GT, you are probably right regarding it's perf.
So the "Surface overly" is for subtitles only?

Yes, it overlay subtitles + video to one frame durning DxVA decoding, but this need a lot of GPU<->RAM movements.
Surface overly is enabled if you enable subtitles durning SAF install.

Probably it was changed a few versions ago, but all the time I used to install SAF5 with disabled subtitles, I had to disable Surface overlay later manually in FFDSHOW config itself. Isn't it always enabled?

You are right, thanks for report! (i always use subtitles, so i missed that).
I will fix it in RC1.

@ALL:
OK, SAF5 RC1 is online.

Yes, this is exactly what I did, I enabled subtitles during the install. Thanks for the explanations.
Regarding VC1, I enabled it in ffdshow DXVA but it still ffdshow that is used. If I set VC1 to "Disable" in ffdshow, I have Microsoft ...DMO that runs the VC1. If I set it up to "wm9" or "libacodec" it's ffdshow that runs.
Do you know what can i do?
Thanks

If your video is in M2TS - there is an option in splitter set to Cyberlink (and ffdshow). Try chenge it to default.
For MKV - no idea, right now, i don't have any MKV with VC-1 inside.

Sorry Hoborg, but how I "edit" the splitter?

Open video in graphstudio and double click on splitter.

AW: SAF v5.00 experimental (based on FFDShow DXVA decoder)

Just a short feedback: Using default AVI Splitter seems to work great. No other problems so far and my mjpeg-files work great! Thanks for your work.

Now I have a few .avi's (should be divx) where I have no sound. Will provide a sample later...maybe you can find a way to work out this too?!

Did you try both aplitters?
Post a sample, i will look.
