BenoitRen Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I'm using ffdshow beta3. When I saw beta4 was out, I tried to install it, but got an error. Recently I downloaded beta5 on my WinXP laptop, and saw they had added recent FLV file support. Today I tried to install beta5 on my Win95 machine, but it fails with an error that it couldn't import the WinCPUID.DLL file. Running Dependency Walker on it reveals that it can't resolve some SetAffinity API in KERNEL32.DLL.I can't extract the setup file. The beta3 setup didn't use this DLL. Unofficial SVN builds fail with the same error, except for one that does a braindead check on the OS version, complaining that it's not at least WinNT 5.0.Does anyone have any ideas on how to bypass the setup file?

BenoitRen Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 They use Inno Setup. You can find the setup files at the ffdshow tryouts SourceForge project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlotteTheHarlot Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 @BenoitRen ...Yup, InnoSetup v5203, extracted no problem. I placed all the extracted files into a ZIP which totals: 5,769,514 bytes. This presents a problem as I see no way to upload it here. I'll list the files and show you what it includes and maybe you only need a smaller one? If not, I'll also show you how to rip this thing yourself, only takes 5 seconds.

Get the file called innounp.exe from inside innounp020.rar. Place it in the same folder as the Beta5 setup EXE file. Copy the Beta5 setup EXE file to a friendlier name like BETA5.EXE. Execute this command in that folder ...innounp.exe -x -d.\Extract Beta5.exeImmediately below you will find a subfolder called \Extract which contains everything in the filelist in that first CodeBox.NOTE: Be sure to read that InnoSetup 'install_script.iss' as it contains the commands that the Installer EXE was programmed to run. There appears to be some strange stuff going on, for example there are several different copies of the same named file (this CodeBox contains wide lines, I hope it doesn't screw up anyone with MSIE! Let me know and I'll delete it) ...[size=1]Source: "{app}\ffdshow,1.ax"; DestDir: "{app}"; DestName: "ffdshow.ax"; Components: "ffdshow"; Flags: restartreplace regserver uninsrestartdelete ignoreversion Source: "{app}\ffdshow,2.ax"; DestDir: "{app}"; DestName: "ffdshow.ax"; Components: "ffdshow"; Flags: restartreplace regserver noregerror uninsrestartdelete ignoreversion [/size]It looks to me that they first create the file ffdshow.ax from ffdshow,1.ax, self-register it, set it to delete on restart and then replace it with ffdshow,2.ax, self-register it. Or something like that.Hmmmmmm I see ... The ffdshow,1.ax is v1.0.5.2032. The ffdshow,2.ax is v1.0.5.2033.

But since neither Ff_Wmv9,1.dll nor Ff_Wmv9,2.dll contain the version strings, I cannot tell for sure which version is which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenoitRen Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) Thanks.Extracting went fine. I moved the necessary files to their directories. Next I used wininit.ini to replace files at boot. 8.3 file name limit reared its ugly head. Aside from that, the files were copied successfully, except for one, which I could do manually.Now my ffdshow installation is broken. I tried to register ffdshow.ax, but it returned an error. The error messages from the codec configurations suggest that the cause is a missing API. **** it.Note: I didn't go through the registry instructions because they were complicated, and I assume I got pretty much everything from beta3.I just used Dependency Walker. ffdshow.ax can't find the following APIs in SHELL32.DLL:SHBrowseForFolderWSHGetPathFromIDListWShell_NotifyIconWI had the impression that other people were able to use ffdshow just fine, though they were using Win98. Yet these are *W APIs, only available on NT5 and higher. Looks like more forced dropping of Win9x support.

BenoitRen Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 I figured out why FLV files don't play after seeing that beta3 is supposed to support them as well. According to AVICodec the container type is DSH, which I guess WMP 6.0 doesn't support.I've installed the latest VLC that works under Win95, which is version 0.8.4a. It can open them fine, so I no longer need beta5 of ffdshow, though it would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
