Thank you. Could you tell us the details?
What kind of error do you have?
Which application do you use?
Is the crash reproducible with AVI file?
What is the OS?

People, sorry if it is an "stupid" question, but i'm looking for a recent build of FFDShow that is multithreaded. I read somewhere about a build like this, but i cant remember "who's " build is was (Clsid/XXL).

I ask this because i want to try to install my new PC this weekend, and it has a E6750 Dualcore. And i need to find an appropriate version of MPC (patched) and AC3Filter i believe, but the question is about ffdshow

I had the same problem, and then I discovered that I still had kevin atkinson's avisynth_c.dll filter in my plugin's directory. If that's the problem, just remove avisynth_c.dll or replace LoadCPlugin with Load_Stdcall_Plugin in ffavisynth.avsi.

Hi,
I found old (since 2003 ?) small bugs in MakeAVIS mode "store uncompressed audio".
1. in function convertToAVI, around line 666:

Code:
//      wfx->wBitsPerSample=WORD((avs_samples_per_second(vi)/avs_audio_channels(vi))<<3); // wrong
      wfx->wBitsPerSample=WORD((avs_bytes_per_audio_sample(vi)/avs_audio_channels(vi))<<3); // must be
2. in same function, around line 687:
Code:
//          LONG rawaudiolen=LONG((asample[1]-asample[0]+1)*avs_samples_per_second(vi)); // wrong
          LONG rawaudiolen=LONG((asample[1]-asample[0]+1)*avs_bytes_per_audio_sample(vi)); // must be

3. in function showProps, aroun line 909

Code:
//    sprintf(pomS,"Bits per sample: %i",(avs_samples_per_second(vi)/avs_audio_channels(vi))<<3); // wrong
    sprintf(pomS,"Bits per sample: %i",(avs_bytes_per_audio_sample(vi)/avs_audio_channels(vi))<<3); // must be
This way makeAVIS works fine in "store uncompressed audio" mode, but only if Bits per Sample is 8 or 16.

For 32 bit (integer or float) audio it produces non-playable avi.
Next fix should be else disable this mode (disable checkbox ?)
or implement internal (or Avisynth) resampling to 16 bit.
I am not guru of windows messages and controls.

Please put my "patch" to SVN

Ugh... I just realized why ffdshow's KernelBob and KernelDeint were crashing on me in the recent builds I downloaded from the project page...

The interface of the ff_kerneldeint.dll has changed, since Haruhiko removed the pointer to the frame copy function and replaced it with inline code. The installer, though, uses an ICL10 compiled, now incompatible ff_kerneldeint.dll which crashes because the signature of IkernelDeint::createI doesn't match anymore.

Could someone please recompile the ff_KernelDeint project with ICL10 and put that in bin\distrib\InnoSetup\icl10?

Thanks!

Was gonna post a bug report along the lines of "Kernel deinterlacer still crashes my ffdshow... HELP!", but thanks for bug-probing Leak.

Well, the fun thing here is that if you just compile ffdshow KernelDeint will work as expected - it's only when you build an installer that the problem will crop up...

In the meantime, here's a vanilla 1601 build with a MSVC compiled but current and working ff_kerneldeint.dll.

EDIT: Then again, the files have just been updated in SVN and a new build is up at SourceForge... that was fast...

Okay well, ilpippo80's fix worked perfectly. A soon as I removed the avisynth_c.dll, then everything worked fine.

Thanks for the fix.

I have a big problem:

I have remuxed (into ts) some of my HD DVD and Blu-ray collection to be able to play them in Vista Media Center.

All Blu-rays (both AVC and VC-1) plays perfect using ffdshow (libavcodec etc).

But the HD DVDs I have remuxed appears to be jerky. And frames are droped.

ffdshow reports 29.976 fps but I know all titles are ~23.976 fps.

I guess the same problem is described here:
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.ph...26#post1019426

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...php?p=12182286


Any idea why?
Is this a Haali splitter problem or is it a decoder problem?

Some HD DVD titles that stutters plays perfectly smooth in PowerDVD. Others are unwatchable in PowerDVD (bad stutters and frame drops) but just stutters slighlty when using Vista Media Center (ffdshow).

I'm just waiting for the new release from Haali.

rickardk,
If you convert your ts into a mkv file, you will be able to set the correct 23.976 fps in the mkv and watch your files smoothly.

Guys, wonder if you can help me out.

I'm using ffdshow tryouts on XP to decode mpeg4-avc files in mkv containers thru halli splitter.

The file details are:
1080p MKV File
1920x800
10675 bitrate MPEG4-AVC Video
DTS Audio

When i play this file on my Core 2 Duo E4400 and ATI2600Pro graphics card i have real problems with the codec only running on one core of my processor. (see pic). GPU stats are at the bottom too.



This is obviously causing stuttering etc as the 2nd core is maxxed out, but the first core virtually idle. The only image amendment i currently have ticked is deinterlace, i do no resizing or sharpening etc.

I have changed "Number of decoding threads" to 2 as per the FAQ, but i believe this to be for mpeg2 only anyway.

Any ideas on how to get this working properly on both cores of my processor?

I have tried early versions like the stable version from july (rev 1324), right upto the latest rev1589, with no difference.

The H.264 decoder is NOT multithreaded (except for slices, which you file obviously doesn't have).

Thanks for prompt reply clsid. Do you know if there is any plans to make the h264 decoder multi-threaded or should i look at an alternative codec for my 1080p versions of files? (as 720 versions get by on 1 core!)

I take it the use of "slices" is a decision taken by the encoder? (and not a popular one by the looks of it)

Any advice you can give would be appreciated.

You can always buy the coreavc decoder v1.5, supports up to quad-core cpu's or wait for FFmpeg development.

Apologies, didn't see the "ToDo List". Are there any timescales on the FFmpeg project?

There only is an experimental patch available at the moment. That is used in the build that _xxl posted above.

Is is unknown when or if that patch gets included in the official FFmpeg codebase.
