Doom9's Forum - View Single Post - Accelerated WMV3 on MPC-HC?

OK, I solved it. If someone is interested, here's what worked for me:
1) Extract VideoFilter from Data1.7z from PowerDVD 11 setup
2) Extract VideoFilter from Data1.7z form PowerDVD 11 Update setup (overwrite files extracted in the previous step)
3) Add CLCvd.ax as external filter in MPC-HC. Double click it's entry and enable DXVA (it wont be checked if you open the properties again, but this was what actually makes things work, otherwise MPC will always select its internal decoder or the WMVideo Decoder DMO).
4) Use default renderer.
It should now play most videos through CyberLink PowerDVD Decoder (PDVD11) with acceleration. But it would still ignore WMV3, so I had to add the subtype {33564D57-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} for MEDIAType_Video for PDVD11.
