This strikes me as odd because HD content should still be decoded by ffdshow if my setup is correct. I think what happens is when I try playing HD content (h/x264 and/or WMV) in MP, the video isn't decoded fast enough and I end up with framerate dropping but the sound continues to play at a constant rate, thus resulting in A/V desyncing.

I'm thinking I might need to turn off some processing functions in WM11 or possibly find an alternate decoder, but there seem to be none available yet, at least not open source ones. I can't find anywhere to configure WM11 runtimes, neither in Windows nor in any player applications. Is there any way to do this? Right now, I'm stuck with not being able to watch WMV10+ content because it bogs down ALL decoding on my HTPC, not just the WMV stuff. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
