if you guys have problems with playback or the video decoder software gives you an ffdshow.ax error.

install http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A5C84275-3B97-4AB7-A40D-3802B2AF5FC2&displaylang=en

or find the 64bit version if you're on 64bit.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

is what i use.

i guess it'd be best to uninstall ffdshow first, install the microsoft package, then install it again, or you could regsvr32 ffdshow.ax in the installation directory

When Playing WMV, WMA files under Vista 32bit there are constant slow downs in the playback performace. Please Fix this in the next version. I use an Athlon 64x2 6400+ Dual core processor.

Hi Daniel:* FFDShow normally gives you an option for running with software. If its slowing down your other stuff, you might configure it so its not listed in the DirectShow control.

For improving audio, say with WinAMP, you can use the Free version of DFX which doesnt slow anything down.Hope This Helps !

Run xvid and divx with ease
low processor consumption than divx
can display sun
if you want to run mp4 or mkv install haali media splitter otherwise it can't run else you use media player classic cause already have gabest splitter built in

I think that this is the best @#$%ing codecs to watch or listen anything. Anyway i found that there is something that you guys should check with the subtittles, Please try to fix the subtittles size like vobsub does, i'm actually using vobsub now because the subtittles looks so great!, try to put the same settings as vobsub does and FFDShow will be perfect.

I like ffdshow a lot and it's very useful, but I'm having a little problem.

I had installed ffdshow and could watch any video I wanted but after I uninstalled and reinstalled it I am no longer able to watch mp4.

The player says that the file can't be opened whereas before that I could watch it normally.

What can I do about it.

I tried many versions of the ffdshow but nothing can seem to remedy it.

Get this one first. Then install Koepi's Xvid, and Quicktime and Real Alternative. Pretty much all you need.

One of the most essential downloads on the Windows platform.

This is the backbone of your directshow based player.

ok playback issues fixed since last few revisions, had made playback under vista media centre very skippy, it was a combination of nvidia and FFDshow, they werent working together, so u have to d/l the 174.74 beta drivers for vista, for it to work well, also d/l the metroska splitter to work with it and playback is 100% beautifull, after installing these 3 things you will never ever need any codec at all EVER IT PLAYS EVERYTHING with the
174.74 nvidia beta
FFDSHOW
METROSKA SPLITTA

No subtitles in VirtualDub! Loading them, then configuring how they should look, and switching back to first dialogue (where u have already loaded them, makes them dissapear, and of course, they dont work!). Previous version (not so sure wich, could be some month ago) worked just fine.
