FFDShow MPEG-4 Video Decoder 2006-05-26
To temporarily fix the explorer crash bug:
When the error occurs, if you can get an error report, you can find the name of the specific dll that's causing the problem. Once you do, navigate to the FFDSHOW directory and add .bak to the extension of that dll to disable it. Once you need it again, rename it back to normal.
If you don't know the error message, I know libmplayer.dll was causing the problem for me.

I'm running two PC's : station (P4, ATI Radeaon 9200) and notebook (FSC Celsius H230). Both with wxpsp2, framework 2.0, wmp10. When installing ffsdhow I have a problem when registering ffdshow.ax on the station. There is no poblem with registering on the notebook. I already tried to apply all the solutions described in this forum but I still can't install ffdshow on the station. :( Thanks for any suggestions. This is realy a good sw when it runs :))

You need .Net Framework 2.0 to correctly register ffdshow.ax

In Windows 98 only version 13/4 seems to work fine. All other versions have bugs and the configuration panel doesnt appear at all. Latest version crashes Zplayer whenever I try to play a file, especially MKV

I have been using FFDShow for last few years and have been very happy with it. Recently I installed Cyberlink Power DVD 7 Deluxe and found that it didnt work with the Xvid codec of ffdshow. Anyone else having this problem ? I have updated my codec to recent pack a few days ago. BTW...what is SSE release of ffdshow ?

Hello, i have been using this codec pack for years, even on my P2.. but im using P4E 3.4GHz for my multimedia, and until 30-04-2006 pack, everything has worked well, i have tried all hotfix info i have searched, and only thing that took away Very annoying ffdshow.ax error was to Uninstall it, and using VLCPlayer or ClassicMediaPlayer.. Please fix this _o/

Hi,
I still have the "error while registering ffdshow.ax" problem with the 20060424 build, and nothing is using ffdshow since I just restarted the PC not too long ago. What's up with that? I can't install it at all, even over an older version.

For those who have problem to install, this is because a process is using ffdshow. The best way to get rid of it is to use a freeware called Process explorer from
http://www.sysinternals .com
Start it then menu Find / Find Dll and type ffdshow
It will show you all the process using ffdshow.ax. Kill them and click "Retry" in the setup.
Note for windows media center : the process ehrecvr.exe may use ffdshow, and if you kill it, it will restart automatically (because this is a service), so after killing it, just click quickly on the retry button in the setup.

My Operating system is Win98 and I've had the same problem with the ffdshow.ax error thing. I've searched my computer for msvcr71.dll and I've found it in C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger ....I've copied it in Windows\System32\Drivers directory and I've tried to install the FDDShow codec.....IT WORKED!!!!! You should do the same.....I have an AMD 400Mhz processor, 192MB RAM & 32MB Video....and I can watch movies smoothly!!!....the ony codec that works great!!!....at least for me

It's undoubtly the best codec, although not perfect. However it handles the most formats and has simultanously a few MB's size only.
That newest version 20060403 installer report me an error with ffdshow.ax i am running win2k3 but with win2k on other computer it works ok.
The best reason is to install ver. 20051201 which should be ok in any case.

I have found the solution to the ffdshow.ax error thing. Please do this:
start>run>cmd>regsvr32 quartz.dll
if that doesnt work try this:
start>run>cmd>regsvr32 /u quartz.dll and then try start>run>cmd>regsvr32 quartz.dll
ganbare!
start>run>cmd>regsvr32 quartz.dll
if that doesnt work try this:

@BiShop:
Thanks for the info, I had that error too with the current build 20060403 and others. Some didn't have the error but you mention the different compilers so that's one of the problems. I copied the msvcr71.dll file from my Winamp folder to the Windows\system32 folder and it worked!
I love this program, it works for me perfectly without changing anything or setting anything. I guess I can get better results when tweaking it, but I have no idea what to set.
