tain Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 ffdshow is completely different, really. This community doesn't have much love for ffdshow so it isn't part of this pack and I keep it off of my testbeds.Not sure why your decoding path is looping like that; mine is fine. Please list this info for the affected video: 4CC, compatible video codecs, and stream type. This is all reported by gspot for a properly encoded file. AFTER you get this data, click on RENDER, wait for it to finish, and then click on "Rendering successful (click for details)". I'd be interested to hear what is in there as well. Although it may be for naught with ffdshow on your machine now...it tends to hijack most types of multimedia streams.3ivx is not part of this pack.

Kramy Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 ffdshow plays stuff properly though. (S) --> AVI Splitter --> ffdshow MPEG-4 Video Decoder --> ®GSpot reports those above mentioned 3 compatible codecs. Two are identical to eachother.4CC: XVIDStreamType: OpenDML AVI, n/a, n/a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Yeah, but ffdshow isn't really our (HFSLIPpers) style, ya know? Slipstreaming the raw codecs into the ISO? Ya, that is our style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramy Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I don't know, ffdshow does more with less. Seems pretty ISO-reducer style to me. B) If something works right and is more efficient...use it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Hopefully some other people will chime in here with their opinion. Either way, I intend to bugfix this pack and split it into separate packs. Maybe we can work on an ffdshow pack after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigman1 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I've never been a fan of ffdshow. It's always been second rate when compared to the quality of the actual codec it's replacing. anyway just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramy Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I like it because ffdshow+Media Player Classic it gives me significantly higher video quality than players like MPlayer. In videos where MPlayer blocks up, ffdshow remains smooth, hardware accellerated, and pretty. I remember other people having different stories though on their own systems.Hey, I just noticed a new codec pack: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Codec...XP/1106578566/1I'm considering installing it to see if it lets me play any of the unworking vids. What do you think the chances are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 hi Kramy!i've already downloaded the file in the link you provided ... i'll test it later btw, wouldn't VLC support the other vids you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramy Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 VLC would likely play everything, but I don't like VLC or MPlayer; they lack the common shortcuts I'm used to(spacebar, alt+enter, etc.).Also, VLC has sound playing issues on my computer.=================================================I just installed the pack(minus the XVid and AC3 filter), and it didn't let me play anything new. Oh well, I'll keep looking. Oh, and incase anyone is wondering, Xvid 1.2 has dual-core optimizations, while Xvid 1.1 is best for single-core. I recommend Koepi's Xvids if you want one.
