LAV Filters - DirectShow Media Splitter and Decoders

[octal9]

i've been try to get the new splitter sub string match feature to work, so far without success. my settings on the splitter: set to advanced with the following selection written "jpn:eng@ass;jpn:eng@subrip" (i'm trying to get the following setup: japanese audio - english sub with ass, if ass not available then japanese audio with english subrip).....what am i doing wrong and how can i get my sub selection to work properly? thanks to nev for the excellent ongoing work!

Does the Title element contain the string 'ass' or 'subrip'?

[nevcairiel]

You can only match the title of the subtitle stream, not its codec. The codec has zero relevance for its actual content, so I don't think it makes any sense to try to match over it.

Feature Request:
video decoder settings for handling side-by-side 3D (sorry, this might have been asked already, I'm not following the thread closely, be kind with me)
show A/left image, B/right image, side-by-side(untouched), Anaglyph and maybe even real 3D

Nev, can you please modify the installer so that it would delete obsolete files from previous versions (like avcodec-lav-xx.dll, avfilter-lav-x.dll etc.)

mpc-be under sub selection defines it as "Srt-Sub[eng](subrip)(english)", so would this be written in the lav sub splitter as "jpn:eng@subrip" or "jpn:eng@Srt-Sub" or something else?

edit: figured it out (finally) - the syntax is as follows to choose subrip "jpn:eng@Srt-Sub" - awesome new feature nev. (although it would be more user-friendly if it were non-case-sensitive)!

I don't know how that player displays tracks, but you can find the track Title by checking 'Track name' in mkvmerge, using eac3to or ffmpeg to parse the file, MediaInfo to display the elements, etc.

I'll do another test-run today.

Here are the results:
I'm using the ffdshow video decoder because of its Resize and Crop filters, but only for uncompressed video. So it's loaded at the end of whatever the previous decoders are doing.

When playing a webm with uneven height, the results are:

LAV for VP8-decoding + ffdshow = green line

LAV and no ffdshow = works

WebM reference decoder + ffdshow = works

I had to use the WebM-Splitter because either LAV or MPCHC would always fallback to LAV Video Decoder instead of the WebM decoder, for some reason, even when setting a "Block"-rule in "External Filters", or unchecking them in the MPCHC-settings.

EDIT: The fallback only happens as long as LAV Splitter is used. When Haali's or the WebM Splitter is used, the WebM decoder can be used, too.

Those are not things a video decoder should necessarily be doing, but tasks for your video renderer. I suggest you request them from your player or video renderer.

Many thanks for atmos fix

[apgood]

Does your atmos fix mean that even if bitstreaming the atmos substream is discarded (I.e. won't get to an atmos capable avr)? If so do you plan on fixing it so that the atmos substream will be passed onto the car when bitstreaming?

Its not discarded when bitstreaming, its just ignored when decoding.

[apgood]

Ok. Thanks for the clarification.

Another +1 from me, thanks nevcairiel. And I want to add a -1 to whoever complains about LAV - it's free so if you don't like it, use something else or write your own suite.

Great release!

The new decoder is quite faster but both CUVID and DXVA2 didn't work for HEVC
