2) just to make sure. 3) the "bad keys": I have explained what they do. They may already be present, but your tool re-writes them there when selecting the options mentioned in the article. I've tested it all pretty thoroughly (for DivX, XviD and MKV files anyway, with either MP3 or AC3 audio). Examples are in the Troubleshooting section: e.g. if you see the DivX decoder TWICE in the DirectVobSub menu (e.g. "DivX Decoder Filter" and "DivX Decoder 003"), you've left some of the "bad keys" in the Preferred DirectShow Codecs. See above. If nothing else helps, repeat the procedure but first delete everything under the "Preferred key" (make sure you've backed it up before !). |

The keys names are just media types and the values and identifiers of the decoders. There is absolutely nothing wrong or bad about them.
It may be true that they give some weird behavior in your testing, but that is not the fault of the keys, but rather of the player or perhaps the DivX filters. If we can figure out the exact cause of the problem, then I can take action to prevent those problems. Just blindly removing stuff is a bad idea (and will break playback when using other filters). Can you reproduce the same problems with other decoders than the DivX ones? For example ffdshow. {44495658-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} equals FourCC "XVID" (capital letters) {31435641-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} equals FourCC "AVC1" {5634504D-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} equals FourCC "MP4V" and {64697678-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} equals FourCC "xvid"

I've just done a new test install (under VM) to check that I didn't skip, or forget to document, any steps in my guide.
Here's the whole "basic" thing (some nice-to-haves have been skipped):
DONE ! |

Why ? See Guide: MediaControl "MUST" work. So the video and audio feeds must go through ffdshow, so mediacontrol can... well, "control" them (e.g. ffw / rew, switching audio streams...). I don't want to use ffdshow to do the actual video decoding work, because the quality is inferior compared to Divx7 with full deblocking + sharpening. |

I guess I'm gonna rewrite the beginning of the guide to clearly state what the goals are, and why certain decisions were made, e.g. "why not just ffdshow" or "why bother with having both DivX and ffdshow"...
I anybody knows another way than MediaControl to enable ffw / rew + audio switching + sub switching in MediaCenter (a way that possibly doesn't require ffdshow or directvobsub/vsfilter, or even one that works through Media Foundation) I'll be very happy to try it out. I'm still setting up my rig to start testing with CoreAVC, by the way. |

Anyone figured out yet how to play .m2ts files with haali+ffdshow?
Renaming mfds.dll makes haali load with .m2ts files instead of mf splitter but ffdshow is not used in h.264 or mpeg-2.

Yes, Shark, he 'corrected' it by never having it wrong in the first place. Your whole first post was wrong, and your continued insistence on reposting it constitutes harassment and advertisement. Stop posting it.

Hello,
i have tried latest version of your switcher, but i don't get ffdshow to load in WMP. It loads when i tried to look what filters load graphedit64. Is this bug, or there is still no way to force WMP to use ffdshow insted of default "Mpeg4s Decoder DMO". BTW what acronym "DMO" means? |

I suspect you are playing a video format other than the ones controlled by the tool. Please supply MediaInfo output for that file.
