I could use some advise concerning playback from raw .264/h264/x264 streams. Please give me good tip guys.
This is wat I have : playback from raw h264 streams using Lav-filter + lav video gives me a black screen in MPC-HC.
(File async, lav-spiltter, lav-audio and lav-video as "prefered", all internal stuff disabled)
I also created a graph in Graphstudio like :
asyn file -> lav-splitter-> lav-video -> EVR. Very simple and should work, but it doesn't, again the same black screen.
The info about the source (fps, higth, width, ratio,..) is properly passed from the source -> lav-splitter -> lav video -> evr.
Oh, I have enabled "raw video" in the lavsplitter tab after the lavfilter installation, not during installation.
I'm starting pulling out my hair because every time I create a raw .x264, I want to have a look at it before I start muxing the rest, and I bump against this issue.
If I put a .x264 that gives only a black screen in a container (MKV, MP4, whatever) it plays normal ! So the stream itself is OK, I guess.
If I replace lav-splitter with for ex. AVsplitter, Sonic HD demuxer or any other capable splitter, everything plays fine (still using Lav-video !).
The problem I have seems somehow related to Lav-spliiter, maybe in combination with something else.
All Lav-filters have their original merit (80000, 80004) and no other filter has a higher merrit in Dshow. (others or all below lav-video/audio).
How can it be that a raw x264 file does not play, but as soon as I put it in a container (which doesn't matter, mkv, mp4,..are all ok) it plays perfect !
It seems that something (filter with a lower merit) is highjacking all extensions for raw x264 files....
Your advise please.
