DirectShow filter showing other actives DirectShow filters in a graph

[Jalavera]

Hi,

Does anybody know a DirectShow filter with tray icon support which informs from other active DirectShows filters in a graph?

Yes, I know that FFDShow can do it, but I'm trying to use HCEnc to encode some HD material via Sonic h264/AVC Directshow decoding (not FFdshow because is buggy, appears blocking easily and resulting file is ugly!). HCenc refuses to load FFDshow (even in Highest merit) if it is not involved in encoding process (used just for filtering: deinterlace, denoise, etc).

When I load AVS Script (with DirectShowSource code inside) into HCEnc, Sonic AVC/h264 is load but I can't change decoding properties (i.e. interlacing, skip deblocking, etc.). I think that an intermediate tray icon DirectShow Filter showing me Sonic h264 filter active can enable Sonic's editing properties.

Any Ideas?

:thanks:

DirectVobSub can do that. You can force it to load always, even if there are not subs.

Thanks, but ... VSfilter auto-load doesn't load under HCEnc nor Mplayer when an AVS Script is loaded. I only found MPC to load DirectVobSub when the input is AVS but the Sonic/AVC decoder doesn't appear!!!!
I even tried to force Haali Media Splitter to load VSfilter in the Haali's options but not succeded.

Please test!

Any other idea?
