Thank you for your respond clsid.

I've downloaded the r4533.
Uninstall the old version, restart the computer then install the r4533. (I didn't do anything during installation process, leaving all the option as it is, click ok... ok... ok until the installation finish).

Play the mp3 file and video with AAC audio, and it works ! Ffdshow audio blue icon showed in the system tray bottom right of my monitor. But different problems appear... :

1. While a movie with two subtitle files (.srt) played in MPC-HC, when I right click the MPC-HC --> Filters --> the ffdshow video decoder doesn't have small triangle anymore where I can choose which subtitle file I want to display.

In the old version, it has the small triangle - from there I can choose which .srt file I want to display.

In the r4533, I need to click the red icon in the system tray, then manually choose the subtitle file I want to display in the Subtitle Filter of the ffdshow.

I've tried here and there hoping the triangle showed, but in vain.

2. While playing a 3D SBS video file, there are 3 column of the subtitle displayed on the video if I "tick" the stereoscopic placement as seen in the photo below

If I "untick" the sterescopic, only the middle subtitle displayed. But this title is unwatchable once I put the 3D setting on my 3D-TV.

In the old version, the subtitle displayed correctly which is on the left and right only, no middle sub displayed.

I've tried here and there trying to get rid off the middle sub, but in vain.

3. Playing mpeg2 and mp4 video file, the color tone is distorted... "splotchy". This is the same thing happen if I use WMP-11, as seen in the picture below :


With the ffdshow old version and MPC-HC, the video is displayed oke, no "splotchy" color.

I've tried here and there trying to get the correct color, such as changing each DirectShow options (EVR, VMR7, VMR9, Default, etc) in the Playback Output of MPC-HC, but in vain.

Sadly, I uninstall the r4533. Restart the computer. Install back the old version r3984. And then... "boom", playing the mp3 file and other video files with AAC audio is calling the ffdshow audio again . And of course, with r3984 I don't have the 3 problems I mentioned above, although with r3984 - playing mp4 file above 10 Mbps and playing MTS (approx 28 Mbps) file from my camcorder is laggy.... and it seems the video play a little bit slow, causing unsync between audio and video. When the audio is not heard anymore, the video still runs. But I can live with that . Funny thing is that the same video files play smooth (no lag - no unsync) with MPC-HC and ffdshow when I was still in XP with lower spec of CPU, GPU and Memory.

Anyway I want to say thank you very much for your respond/help/suggestion, clsid. And from your name, it seems you are the programmer of ffdshow ? If yes, wow... I'm flattered and I want to say thank you once again for your ffdshow. The name of the installer file I use is [ffdshow_rev3984_20110922_clsid.exe]
