Windows 7 supports decoding of various formats out of the box. H.264 playback is there and it decodes fine through DirectShow. VC-1 playback is there, but when AviSynth tells it to decode through DirectShow it does not work.

I can use libavcodec for VC-1 decoding (with a little fiddling around), but playback shows artifacts when jumping and so does the compression tests I make.

I would guess it does not make for a good compression test then. Is there any way to get Microsoft's decoder to work through DirectShow or get rid of the libavcodec artifacts?
