Excluding PowerDVD.exe from the list does nothing in my PC and I don't know why.
Is this designed intentionally? If so, how can I bypass it?
Or is there something that I overlooked or misunderstood in configuration?
You could rename Powerdvd.exe to Powerdvd5.exe.

Our devs here only apply selected changes from the ffmpeg repo.

i am asking because of my last bugreport regarding the h264 decoder crash with sykoneHD streams. i hope they fix it soon and the changes migrate into ffdshow.

If the stream is buggy, then there's no bug in the decoder. At best it's a "feature request": please show mercy to buggy streams. In either case, it's the ffmpeg user list where this has to be posted.

I don't think so. He's doing great job there.

@Yamagata:
Code:
STDMETHODIMP_(const char*) TffdshowDecVideo::get_cuurent_idct(void)
Is this just a typo or did you ran out of operation names? I suppose it's the latter otherwise VS would complain but you never know...

Edit: Where in the libavcodec code is the part that sets the IDCT when 'auto' is selected? I guess lavc reads out the FOURCC and sets the IDCT based on a pre-defined list but I can't find the part...

There have been a few changes to the H.264 decoding code lately to handle 'bad' data better. So I am pretty confident that the FFmpeg devs will take a look at the sample that Hans submitted to their mailing list.

it's typo, fixed.

h263dec.c
Code:
    if(s->codec_id == CODEC_ID_MPEG4 && s->xvid_build && avctx->idct_algo == FF_IDCT_AUTO && (mm_flags & MM_MMX)){
        avctx->idct_algo= FF_IDCT_XVIDMMX;
There are some other. Search FF_IDCT_AUTO.

Yes, thank you. I was particularly interested in how ffdshow deals with IDCT and H.264. As far as I can see, H.264 uses a reference IDCT implementation (h264idct.c). So I suppose ffdshow "forwards" to this IDCT instead of to the others.

DivX 4/5/6, 3ivX and FLV1 now use iDCT "Simple MMX".
Xvid now uses iDCT "Xvid MMX".
Other formats show "unknown". Either because the iDCT is hardcoded (like for VP3/5/6) or they don't use a DCT algo.

ffmpeg doesn't support PAFF interlacing.

if you mean my problem. there are only few locations in these streams where ffdshow/ffmpeg fails and crashes. the rest of the streams play perfectly. there was a build where the decoder did not crash (i do not know the exact build number) but showed extreme decoding errors where other decoders (cyberlink, mediaconcept, coreavc) do not show such a behavior.

Thanks for your confirmation, haruhiko_yamagata.
Now I'm free of thinking what's wrong with my machine.
Thanks again.

As you already know, v5,v6 and v7 are major version numbers.
Upgrade between those is not free while upgrade between minor builds is free.
So I've just known it's v5 since I purchased it..

Also PowerDVD.exe, the main executable of PowerDVD shows its own build number on the properties -> version tab.
Mine says it's 5.0.0.2027, or PowerDVD 5 build 2027.
But to be precise, 2027 is only for the PowerDVD.exe.
It should be 2214 for the whole PowerDVD, because I installed update patch 2214.

drevil_xxl, thanks for your help.
Unfortunately, it seems that PowerDVD.exe doesn't like to be renamed.
It says "your license is expired...." and refusing to start.
So I had to go back to the original name and everything is OK.

could always having deblocking enabled actually have negative quality aspects on videos, where there is no deblocking needed ?

I very much doubt that that will be neccessary, seeing as Milan already included it when he was still working on ffdshow - just select "Kernel deinterlacer" or "Kernel bob" on the "Deinterlacing" page...

np: Bola - AMNiON (Soup)

maybe its possible to read version details from registry or file, if someone can code it

Blocking "powerdvd.exe" is currently hardcoded in ffdshow. If Haruhiko removes that, then editing the blacklist should be enough.

The bug occurs, while decoding the mentioned XviD encode(s) with libavcodec and idct set to auto. The auto-setting defaults to libmpeg2 every time.
Can you confirm this again?
At least, the sample you posted is OK. Maybe you tested on different sample when you first find this issue.
clsid's latest build is available to see IDCT on OSD.
