Re: AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

EDIT:: When i will use LAV Video Codec for HD Movies in Video Section, Graphedit shows me ffdshow is in use. Can't LAV Video decode h.264

Must be your config.
Firstly, make sure you enabled LAV video decoder durning SAF setup.
Then try to disable h.264 decoding in FFDshow DXVA decoder and FFDShow decoder.
Then try to play your file in Graphstudio, LAV video should be in use - or maybe PDVD decoder, i am not sure which one have higher merit.

OK i will try.

By SAF install, LAV Video was checked and i can choose it in Mepo Config.

Thats an good idea. When i set PDVD11 for h.264 and i watch an movie, in graph ffdshow is decoding the video file. I don't do other things as previously. previously i must set nothing off in ffdshow, it works all fine, but now it dosent work.
Since SAF I only use PDVD for h.264. I no longer understand the world. Or what is new since the 6.02 ?

EDIT:: Now i unchecked all h.264 and VC1 from ffdshow and ffdshow dxva, put the file in graph and now he use WMVideo ...

But no PDVD11. What's wrong with my htpc ?

In graphstudio. Just remember to restart you system to take effect. If you have Win7, you will also need to change prefered decoder i think.

ok i tryed at my one... this things i have do. I found where i can change the merit. So i do that, change things in ffdshow but all the same...

in ffdshow i disabled the VC-1 :: see screen

in graphstudio i change the merit of pdvd 11 to prefered +1 :: see screen

but now he use WMVIDEO DMO or so :: see screen

i looked at graphstudio what for merit is used for this and change this to normal

but nothing has changed. when i play the VC-1 movie, WMVIDEO DMO was used...

EDIT:: I make a restart, but nothing changed. My OS is Win 7. Now PDVD11 has merit of PREFERD +2 this stubborn WMVIIDEO Deocoder DMO has now a merit of DONT USE. But he will not listen to me. This Decoder could be the star sign Aries ago.

What else can I do. I WANT TO PDVD11 FOR VC-1 DECODING.

Another quest on properties page from pdvd11 there i can check DXVA. Should i do that see the screen ?

EDIT:: 2

Now i can't play the movie. See message on screen. It looks as if PDVD11 could no handle VC-1.

D3ltoroxp:
Maybe you have some strange VC-1 file.
Use MKV merge to cut small sample and send it to me.
I tested all VC-1 i/p samples here in MPC-HC (PDVD decoder added as prefered) and all of them play just fine.
Do you have SAF 6.0.3 installed, right?

AW: SAF v6 (based on LAVF)

Yes i have installed it this morning. I will make a sample.

Hi, im new here and could need some help if possible.
I just switched from madVR to SAF6 because i had annoying judder problems. So far everything works fine now. Because i dont want to look through all 170 pages it would be nice if someone could point me to some sort of tutorial to optimize (focus on picture quality) SAF. I use it only to play 720p/1080p mkv files. I use a C2D 3,4Ghz a 8800GTS 512 4GB RAM and a 40" LCD to play my files.
