Nev (the developer) said he's planning to integrate the two one day (which makes sense; like CoreAVC), and I think it would be wonderful if he'll have a patch available adding SB acceleration as well. It will make it the best video decoder hands down.
What I'm trying to say: think ahead. forward. ffdshow is slowly fading w/ each step LAV Filters take.
I believe the day where codec packs use LAV Filters (instead of Haali & ffdshow) is not that far away.

Or maybe I'm the only one who has noticed it?
My work has very little on FFDshows own code. I created a separate DLL that doesn't link with FFDshow or any of its components. FFDshow works very well (that I've noticed anyway) and it was a good start point to me as it doesn't change all the time (actually it does change but with very short merge times on my part). Porting to LAV should be easy, but one thing at a time.
