Vorbis in AVI?...are you sure about that!? Don't you mean Vorbis in MKV or OGM?

You're half right. Most people will of course us it for decoding purposes, but you can also encode stuff via VFW with VirtualDub for instance.

hmm...oke o_O

Decoding (audio & video): - DSFP + ffdshow - Zoom Player Encoding (audio): - Command-line tools + Multi frontend - Command-line tools + Audiograbber (for audio cds) - Belight (for AC3) Encoding (video): - (Auto) Gordian Knot - AviSynth - VirtualDub(Mod)

Hello #rootworm,What exactly is so horrible about the CDDA Filter? I'm not the one who uses this filter every day, because I never listen to CD's to be honoust, but of course I tested it before putting it in my DSFP. I didn't encounter anything serieus.

For over 4 years now I've been using the Realtek ALC650 (nVidia SoundStorm) on my Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe. It produces magnificent sound. Many times I've been accused of "radar-user" because I could (and still can) hear people very good around the corner. I'm not sure about the Intel HDA (high definition audio), but back then the nVidia nForce2 MPC was the best onboard solution available. It even got put up against the Creative Audigy 2 in this review, and they're quite on par with eachother.

Perhaps this one could also be interesting: VisionTek lanceert X1300 256MB PCI Visiontek introduces X1300 PCI

Then I think you didn't search thoroughly enough. There sure are a few around for free.

Haha, well you see, Fridge talks/blabs quite a lot, sometimes a little too much I don't play HL2DM or CS:S, heck I don't even own the game (I did play HL2 singleplayer about 1/1,5 years ago though), so I guess Fridge was a little too eager on that one. TacticalOps I have been playing now for over 6 years (maybe even 7), and this I play almost daily. And about the short temper ... I don't mind being killed at all, but if this is due to a stupid action of myself, I sometimes can get a little agitated (quite normal reaction imo ). Perhaps I demand a too high level of skill of myself... And a little something about the ping story: in august 2004 we got ADSL (broadband), but before that we had 56k and so I always played with a ping of ± 150ms and I still pwned! Well this is quite a surprise then. I didn't know Fridge played HL2. Although I did like HL2 singleplayer, I also heared from people from TO who f***edup their aim by playing CS:S for a while and then returning to TO. But who knows, maybe I'll drop by some time. P.s. I couldn't resist:

Lol, oh really!? I'm not aware of any of this.

Zoom Player + DSFP + FFDShow A highly advanced DirectShow Media Player for music, video, dvd.

Also, please enable "FLV1" in the FFDShow Video Configuration.

"Joined: 5-July 06"...haha. Those are quite some words you throw at me there! I guess it turns out you can't take criticism very well, because the only thing I told you was that it's not "codecs" which are integrated within MPC of VLC, but splitter- and decoder-filters, or can you make some MP3 out of a WAV file with MPC or a MKV[XviD+Ogg] out of a DVD with VLC? I don't think so. Also please tell me where it turns out I'm wrong anyway? Besides you're telling me what to do? Who do you think you are? I'm not posting that much on these forums anyway. I just felt like I needed to clarify this codec/splitter/decoder-thingy up a little, and if you disagree with me, please proof me wrong, instead of shutting me up. I do have a hunch where I think I was wrong according to you. This is correct, MPlayer indeed has the ability to do this, but this doesn't mean these codecs are somehow integrated within MPlayer. You all have to download them separately.

No it wasn't actually. I have yet to see a media player with an integrated codec to be honoust.

Just for the record; those are no codecs, they're just splitter- and decoder filters. I don't know any other program with media stuff integrated than the ones you mentioned above.

TAin, nothing really important, but I'd would like to point out that: There's no such thing as "a filter" (in photoshop you have filters ). My package contains only decoder-filters, but there are also encoder-filters available. It's either "codec" (capable of encoding and decoding media content), or "decoder(filter)" (only capable of decoding media content), or either "encoder(filter)" (encoderfilters you don't see that often but they do exist. These you can use with GraphEdit for example.) So if the MSFN codec pack doesn't have any codecs/encoders (MSFN codec pack?...), then I guess we fall in the same category. (btw. what's YMMV?)

Then I guess you must have done something wrong, because all the needed files are present in the archive, including the DSFP_inst.bat. I've shortly tested this stuff before putting it online and I didn't have any problems. What exactly do you mean by "requires quotes because of the space"? What space?

Thank you for your pack You're welcome. I am waiting for your "tweak guide", I hope it will be soon Yeah well, I'm still not sure whether I should finish this or not. Some time ago by reading the Tactical Ops forums I discovered people were really interested in having a tweak-guide for them to get as much out of the old Unreal Tournament engine as possible. At the moment there are 2 threads you can take a look into: - Tweaks, tweaked ini's and tips for everyone - INI Updates Although these will give you some information into how to tweak your TO installation, it's far from being enough. The first thread the guy explains some things about how to clean your computer from spyware and such, but furthermore he just hands out some personal tweaked ini-files and most people just use them like that. Well that's pretty stupid, because tweaks are very personal and computer hardware/computer configuration dependant. I've also looked into these ini's shortly and there were quite some things that were far from optimum. But the thing I'm really concerned about is the fact Tactical Ops: Crossfire has been released for UT2004. You see TO is quite old, in fact, it's dying. And I'm not quite sure if it's worth all the effort to release a tweak-guide because of these reasons. P.S: I want to learn quite more about splitters, filters... At the moment the only links I quickly found are: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectShow - http://www.inmatrix.com/zplayer/formats/ - http://www.inmatrix.com/zplayer/formats/filterinstall.shtml - http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=GraphEdit - http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/graphedit.html Good luck.

Update: DirectShow FilterPack 2.1

Although I respect your input, I don't think that would be such a good idea. If I would include a reg-file for FFDShow that would mean it would be imperative to install FFDShow prior to installing my DSFP. Also, I don't like the idea of forcing people to use those FFDShow settings. It should be their choice whether they want to use "Volume Normalization" or "Postprocessing" or not. And concerning the media types; I know you can enable or disable the FFDShow media types with reg-files, but since not everyone is using the same exact version of FFDShow I'm also not sure what to think of this either. I'll think about it. It's as simple as this: If you enable the integrated splitter/decoder filters in MPC it will use these. If you disable the integrated splitter/decoder filters in MPC it will use others fit for the job. (When I use MPC, I always have most of the integrated decoder filters disabled, this way I can enjoy Volume Normalization from FFDShow for low-volume AC3 sound for instance). It would seem you're still using an old version of my DSFP, since I'm not including the RadLight OGG Splitter anymore. But anyway, with that splitter the msvcr71.dll file was included, because the splitter is made with .NET Framework I guess, so if someone didn't have Framework installed, with the dll-file the splitter would still work.P.s. "I only use your Oggsplitter (cos its better then the one in MPC)". If so, could you tell why you think this RadLight OGG Splitter is better than the one from Gabest? Because, like I said, I don't use the one from RadLight anymore.

What do you mean? This is already the batch file I'm talking about.

NTFS CONVERTER.CMD convert d: /FS:NTFS convert c: /FS:NTFS I've seen /V stands for "Verbose" or something...what difference would this setting make?

Thanks for the replies so far. One thing I discovered was, that it seems to takes much longer to completely defragment a FAT32 HDD then NTFS one. I recently defragmented my computer after a long time, and it didn't take THAT much time. As you can see in my signature I have 2 SATA HDDs (69Gb and 233Gb, both NTFS of course), and the defragmentation process didn't even take that much time to finish, while both HDDs were rather heavily fragmented! As for the laptop; it has a 40Gb HDD, 2 partitions of around 20Gb. Even with one partition, after one hour and a half / two hours it was only at 20% or so! :s I roughly know the differences between FAT32 and NTFS, but I didn't suspect this. bluesreens, just for the record, while the first 2 replies suggest I should play it save, are you saying that I can do this conversion process anytime I want without losing files? (It's just that I don't like the idea of reinstalling windows and everything again on a brand new laptop.)

I'm still not entirely sure whether this belongs in the software- of hardware-section, but anyway... My mother got her self a nice ASUS laptop 2 months ago and everything seems to be working fine. It also has all the pre-installed junk on it, *cough*Norton Internet Security*cough*. But I also noticed the harddisk is formated with a FAT32 table, and on the desktop they put a batch-file to convert everything to NTFS. Now my question is; Is this conversion process risk free? I mean, will all the files be still intact? Thanks in advance

nmX.Memnoch, then we've got ourselves a misunderstanding here indead. Sorry.
