Has no one found any "Free Codecs" to mpeg4?
've Tried coreavc, but are not completely satisfied.

In Denmark we have television signal in mpeg 4 and that is what it should be used to.

Hi Tvorup

I think a number of people use the CODEC that comes with the trial version of Power DVD 9 forboth MPEG2 and H.264. While the Power DVD application is a limited trial I believe the CODEC itself continues to work indefinately. The only problem may be that if you are using MediaPortal 1.1 Beta with recent SVNs there seem to be some issues at present with H.264 CODECs.

PowerDVD 9 works, it means that the image still jumps and have always done.
I have now ordered a new DVB-T card, so we will see

    I got TV working with the new Danish h264/AAC channels working smoothly by using CoreAVC for video, and using MONOGRAM AAC for audio. However, since ffdshow thinks it is also able to decode AAC and I use that for the regular channels (DR1 DR2 etc.) I have to set ffdshow audio configuration for AAC decoding to disabled, otherwise I experience freezes when zapping.

    My working codec setup is shown in attached image. YMMV.

    Seidelin - you are the one!

    Nice screendumps, AAC is the killer.
    I now have a working MP with the new h.264 channels.
    Thnx Seidelin, so nice so nice.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    OK....perhaps impatient of me I know, but went for a full reinstall....and now up and running once more. Have no idea what was at the root of this problem....still wondering if it may've been due to a Win11 update earlier this week?
