rekenaar as much annoying the vuvus might be, I'd give a lot to trade places with you right now!
I liked the spirit of your team on friday and the goal was the best so far! hope you have a great world cup party there.
Loved it four years ago here in germany.

Yes, thanks, the spirit of the whole country is wonderful and it's great to experience it.

I think it was only the second coat of paint on that goal post that denied us a winning opening game...

Now if we could just implement a few hundred thousand vuvuzela-silencers...

No chance to eliminate a certain frequency...here is a study on these "weapons":
SAMJ: South African Medical Journal - Vuvuzela sound measurements

I played around a little bit with the ffdshow fir filter - I personally have the feeling that it is better, if I cut out at least the higher frequencies...or switch off the sound completely

rekenaar: Yeah they say you ran out of earplugs down there?!
baldur: same experience here. when i cut out the most annoying frequencies, the voice of commentator sounds not good...

got it it acceptable level now... set my soundsystem surround mode to "theater" and the annoying buzz is gone... the commentator does sound it bit from the front now.. but better then it was..

That looks (or sounds) pretty good. But how can we get this in ffdshow?

How does this filter work?

Here is another link on a how-to do it. It's not realtime it seems, but again it tells that there are in fact 4 frequencies: 235hz, 465hz, 930hz and 1860hz.

I tried using the ffdshow equalizer, but that did not give a good result. I will try to use the FIR-filter, but to my knowledge this is limited to only one frequency. My hopes that removing just one will give a good result are not that high.
I really hope someone can come up with a solution. This would be a killer-HTPC feature during the World Cup :-D

Bump bump.

Very interested in getting a working solution for this issue. Someone out there must have some knowledge of this, hopefully.
