(follow-up from another thread) Can I use PowerDVD's decoders within Avisynth?

[Chainmax]

Some time ago, I downloaded a Nike commercial (Olé). It's an MPEG2 file with MP2 audio. When trying to play it, the video is fine but the audio is mute and the only decoding icon that shows up is ffdshow's audio decoder. When feeding the video to TMPG's demultiplex tool, only the audio shows up.
Now, I can transcode the video using AVisynth, but if I mux it with the original MP2 then the audio is mute as well. If I transcode the MP2 into an AC3, and mux it with the transcoded video, the audio does play but it's not in synch with the video anymore.
Recently, I tried playing it in PowerDVD, and this time both audio and video played perfectly. Is there a way to load the video and audio in Avisynth using PowerDVD's decoders? I can upload the commercial somewhere for you guys to examine if needed.

Try demuxing the video and audio using Project X.

Try using the instructions I describe here (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=854407#post854407) except replace the .ts file with your .mpg file. Also make sure to use the "demux" option in the process window. This will separate both video and audio which you can then remux with TMPGEnc.

I'll try that in a few hours, but take into account that I did similar things without results. Read my first thread on the subject (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=109636) to find out more.

Try RadLight Filter Manager to change the priority of the PowerDVD filters, and then use directshowsource.

Thanks for mentioning this - I've being using Gspot to do a similar function - but this is better
