Make DivX5 NOT play DivX3.11 content, the solution!
With some hints from forum members, I actually figured it out. There is a registry key called "FilterData", which defines (among some other stuff I think), what input (FourCC-Codes) a DS-Filter accepts.
You can check this in GraphEdit with Insert DS Filter and then checking the pins, there you can see, which FourCC-Codes a specific filter will take! Okay, after I finally found the keys in the registry I looked onto the changes between DivX4.12 (play all content), DivX4.12 (play only DivX4) and DivX5...basically it's the following: All following everytime occur both in upper and lower case (divx/DIVX) in the FilterData, I will only write lower case here. DivX4All: divx, div3, div4, div5, div6 DivX4Only: divx DivX5: divx, dx50, div3, div4, div5, div6 At the moment (if we want to continue div3/4 with the old filter), we only need divx and dx50, that is because DivX5 write FourCC-Code divx and used codec dx50 into the avi file (unlike DivX4 which both times wrote divx) So I overwrote div3-div6 in the filter data entries with something unused, in my case ABCD. Now only divx/DIVX/dx50/DX50 gets played with the DivX5DS-Filter. Here on my WinXP System (no guarantees for other systems or whatever), it's the following 6 keys and you have to replace ALL of them: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{78766964-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\CLSID_DivXDeux] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{CF49D4E0-1115-11CE-B03A-0020AF0BA770}\Instance\CLSID_DivXDeux] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{78766964-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\CLSID_DivXDeux] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{CF49D4E0-1115-11CE-B03A-0020AF0BA770}\Instance\CLSID_DivXDeux] In all 6 locations you have to replace the existing FilterData-entry with this: "FilterData"=hex:02,00,00,00,00,00,80,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,30,70,69,33,\ 00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,0c,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,30,74,79,33,00,\ 00,00,00,10,01,00,00,20,01,00,00,31,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,30,01,\ 00,00,32,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,40,01,00,00,33,74,79,33,00,00,00,\ 00,10,01,00,00,50,01,00,00,34,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,60,01,00,00,\ 35,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,70,01,00,00,36,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,\ 01,00,00,80,01,00,00,37,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,90,01,00,00,38,74,\ 79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,a0,01,00,00,39,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,\ 00,b0,01,00,00,3a,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,c0,01,00,00,3b,74,79,33,\ 00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,d0,01,00,00,31,70,69,33,08,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01,\ 00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,30,74,79,33,00,00,00,00,10,01,00,00,e0,01,\ 00,00,76,69,64,73,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,64,69,76,78,00,00,10,\ 00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,44,49,56,58,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,\ 64,78,35,30,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,44,58,35,30,00,00,10,00,80,\ 00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,\ 43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,\ aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,\ 00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,\ 38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,41,42,43,44,00,00,\ 10,00,80,00,00,aa,00,38,9b,71,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ 00 After that you're set... :-) Enjoy! On other Windows-Versions you can try to find the Filter Data Keys the same way I found them, if they are in other locations, by searching for "DivX Decoder Filter" in the registry. You find the string a lot of times, it does not always have a filter data entry next to it... NOTE The above filter data reg entry was for DivX 5.0 DS-Filter, the DivX 5.01 Filter supports these file types: divx, dvx1, dx50, div3, div4, div5, div6 So since dvx1 is new, you can't use the above filter data and would have to do it manually as described (overwriting the ones you don't want, for example div3 and div4). But instead of that better use the updated method below. UPDATE There is a more elegant method posted further down by orulz. I'll quote it here for your convenience: Quote:
Quote:
If you are interested in the new DivX3 (decoder V8.0.0.4487, encoder V4.1.0.3927), there's a pack that contains this version with already priority patched decoder filter, see here for more information: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32453! The final version V1.0 of the pack from the page linked in that thread (http://www.geocities.com/xkodi) is the one with the priority patched decoder filter! Update for DivX 5.2+ If you want to make the DivX3 Priority Patch work again with DivX 5.2, you can do the following: Look here: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{78766964-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}] and here: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{78766964-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}] in the filter data entries...the 8th byte now reads FF instead of 00 which it reads in the other 4 locations mentioned in first post...replacing the FF with 00 in these two locations makes the priority patched Div3 work again...bit easier than to overwrite the fourccs in the filter data entry, but still not an elegant solution. Better alternative: Do the exact opposite to the Div3 Priority Filter Data (leaving the DivX5 Filter data alone), that means in these two locations replace the 8th byte 00 with FF: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{82CCD3E0-F71A-11D0-9FE5-00609778AAAA}] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{083863F1-70DE-11d0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\Instance\{82CCD3E0-F71A-11D0-9FE5-00609778AAAA}] This is the better version in my opinion, because Div3 don't get updated anymore and you won't have to repeat this process, every time you install a new DivX5 (as you would have with first version) Still no ideal thing, maybe someone can patch DivXC_32.ax again to include the 90 FF (7th-8th byte filter data) now instead of 90 00...

I read your post too early to get the file, so I did it manually. Thank you very much, it works! Funny thing though, it didn't work at first, but after I rebooted the change kicked in. Just something to try for everyone else if it doesn't seem to work at first...
Thanks a lot for finding this! |

Yup it worked
But thanks DivXNetworks ( to you!! ) it screwed the XviD directshow filter No filtering at all! I'll stick with DivX 4.12 till the su**ers (sorry) at DXN got it right. I hate this almighty attitude of them. greetz, Uli BTW: I'm using the free version, not that "pro" system damager |

I'm not into XVid at all, so maybe I am wrong, but doesn't the XVid-DS-Filter kick in with FourCC-Code XVID? So the above manipulation shouldn't have to do with it...
What do you mean DivxNetworks screwed it? Does the DivX5 installation somehow affect a registered Filter for FourCC XVID? |

XVID-DS-Filter
There is a post in the XVID-Forum about this I just saw. But the "solution" was to uninstall DivX5...I'm not into researching this right now, but if anyone knows a better one keeping DivX5 installed, please let us know :-)

Chibi Jasmin, first i want to congrat you for your excelent post.
Then i want to say that the divx5 ds filter messing with the xvid ds filter still isn't confirmed. I am using Xvid almost from the moment it appeard, and i too (like so many) installed divx5 when it came to surface. But i still have to experience any problems with my xvid encodings using xvid ds filter caused by having divx5 installed. I too saw that post at the xvid forum, and made some tests, by having divx5 installed and uninstalled, and i couldn't reproduce the problems those guys were having. The only problems i ever encountered with xvid ds filter were caused by my shity P2-350 (too damn slow) i have at work. By using a faster cpu, i had none. By the way, the other day i saw a post where some guys were saying that girls weren't any good at this "rip thing". Maybe they should come here to see your work (You are a girl, right? If not, i am making a fool out of myself )

I find the divx5 playback filter pretty good. The adjustment of how much post-processing you want is really good, I think. It plays back all files really nice, including DivX 3.11 SBC.
But, as always, that's a matter of taste, I guess :-) |

About the XviD-DS filter...
Maybe the DivX 5 Codec gets pissed because the XviD-DS filter also decodes 'divx' and 'DIVX' FourCCs, as you can see in XviDs FilterData. I will discuss that over in the XviD-Forum. greetz, Uli |

The XviD filter does have DivX FourCC as a code it supports, however the code in the filter, doesn't allow a connection to the DivX FourCC.
Ill turn off all support for the DivX FourCC in the code, I doubt this is the cause of the problem, but its worth a shot (Is someone writing a regisrty program to modify the Div3 fourcc in all the filterdata of the DivX Decoder...it would be useful, I could do it, if there are no other volunteers (im pretty busy till tuesday)) Cheers, -Nic |

About the XviD-DS-filter (again)
After uninstall of DivX 5 (std) and uninstall of XviD, i reinstalled the 'pro' version of DivX 5, modified the FilterData to not play DivX 3 content ( BTW: worked great on Win98SE ) and after that i reinstalled XviD. Same again, XviD content is'nt filtered anymore. Instead it is played by VFW with the xvid.dll. Only way to get filtering, is uninstall of DivX 5. No probs with DivX 4.12
A special question to Nic: ... deleted ... Nic already responded in the XviD forum greetz, Uli Last edited by Uli; 11th March 2002 at 14:44. |

Now i have a working solution:
If i use BSPlayer the XviD-DS-filter kicks in correctly and the output gets properly filtered But i noticed another side effect of DivX 5: With DivX 5 installed, mediaplayer is'nt able to play Mpeg2 files anymore ( i have WinDVD 3.0 installed ), it is looking for a codec Without DivX 5 installed mediaplayer uses correctly the intervideo filters and plays Mpeg2 files fine... weird... WTF has DivX 5 to do with Mpeg2 ...anyway... greetz, Uli |
