I think that I was the reason that it was disabled again.

It caused LAVFilters to freeze up so hard that I had to kill it via process manager.

But maybe it could be added as an option somewhere, if it doesn't clutter up the settings too badly?

An option that is known to practically cause the entire hardware to hang is not something that'll ever be exposed to users.
Unless some effort is invested to figure out what makes some videos cause this problem, and find out if its possible to fix it, it really doesn't make sense to open it up to issues again.

I downgraded to .71 LAV filters and the issue seemed to go away.
Try with the next nightly version (coming in around ~3h from this post to https://files.1f0.de/lavf/nightly/), it has some changes that may help. Feedback would be good.

Wanted to report here, as well. Watching Incredibles 2 MKV and not a single issue with this new build. Very happy!

Saw the recent update of ffmpeg within LAV, have there been any significant updates to it since last year?

I have re-visited the problem and done some additional filtering of the bitstream to hopefully avoid the problem. However, I was also unable to reproduce it anymore, even with old LAV and old drivers, so maybe something in a Windows 10 update fixed it.

Anyhow, its now possible to enable H.264 MVC HW decoding in LAV Video, if you have a Intel GPU. Its default off.

Testing would be appreciated. Even more so if you previously had the hang problem. It'll be available in a couple hours in the next nightly build at https://files.1f0.de/lavf/nightly/

Cross post (JRiver Thead0 but FYI - Tested the following historic probs with had/soft drops and they all played fine with the latest LAV Nightly (all folder rips).
- "Incredibles 2" - Soft Drop : eg drops at 3:16 at the seamless branching point where it goes to the Incredibles 2 spinning logo
- “Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Men Tell No Tales” - Hard Drop : eg drops out a couple of times between 17:45 and 19:00 minutes into the movie
- “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol II” - Hard Drop : eg drops out at 1:09:24 where TaserFace gets killed is one example.
- “Maze Runner: The Death Cure” - Hard Drop : eg Right at the beginning of the Main Title when the 20th Century clip is running

Thanks Hendrik - looks good to me.

... what tool are people using to "unpack" the LAV EXE instead of installing it? I "think" I used to just use 7-Zip but the main files are all in a "[0]" file in the EXE.
Thanks
Nathan

innounp. But beware: simply replacing the dlls isn't always sufficient. It's recommended to always run the installer.

For JRiver, I just copy them from my laptop into the plugins/lav folder. However, you really should register the ax files from there which is what I do. Mainly because I have custom settings for LAV Video in JRiver so I can use D3D11 decoding.

FYI - I just need to replace the files in the JRiver Plugins folder for testing. Thanks for the tip on innounp - just what I need.

OR you can run regsvr32 on the .ax files again, so that the registry is duly updated.

LAVVideo.ax bug in two latest nightly builds

Two latest nightly builds 0.73.1-14 and 0.73.1-11 are buggy! LAVVideo.ax is not loadable under Windows 2008 Server x86 Service Pack 2.
Build 0.73.1-6 is working normally.

I might be lucky, or maybe it's because LAV was installed before I installed jRiver, but it looks like it's the standalove LAV that is being used by jRiver. I update it regularly and when I play a file and look at the LAV running (taskbar icon), it's the latest, with my custom settings. So I'm not touching it.

As you know I had to unregister MadVR and move it to the plugins, and register it there, but it didn't seem to be necessary for LAV, which makes updating it easier (I simply install the new version). The added benefit is that it installs both teh 64bits and the 32bits version, the latter being needed for MadMeasureHDR.

Maybe Nevcairiel will correct me if there is a better way to keep LAV updated when using jRiver, but for now it's working well for me.

I think it is because of update to latest Intel MSDK decoder. It's use function SetThreadErrorMode, it's minimum support Windows 7/2008 R2.

One of the users posted a log file in the JRiver thread. Is this something you are aware of? Do you need a sample MKV?

Thanks
Just to bring closure to this topic: The latest LAV nightly build fixed all Atmos issues! Thanks for the support Nev!

If you register them outside of the JRiver plugins directory and add them as custom filters, then yes, it's using your external LAV installation. I'd not necessarily recommend that as it has caused problems in the past. I update the plugin version and re-register them with regsvr32. This method has never given me an issue.

Yes, that's what I did, I install the standalone LAV and then add them in jRiver as custom filters, same as MadVR.

If I was to do it your way, I should:

Copy the LAV x64 most recent LAV files into the plugin directory
Uninstall LAV standalone
Register the plugin version using regsvr32

Then when a new version of LAV arrives, unpack it and copy the x64 files to the plugin?

Then what I do I do to have the x86 version registered for MadMeasureHDR?

The only issue I have a the moment is lots of UHD BD Menus won't play properly (direct movie playback works fine). If this is unlikely to fix it, I'm tempted to stay as it is...

I doubt that'll fix the UHD menu issue. If you have examples of titles not playing menus correctly, you should visit the bd menu thread on JRiver forum and post about them there so they can be looked at.
