XviD DShow standalone decoder

[Koepi]

Hi everyone!

I played around with the latest CVS-code (and built+uploaded a SMP-binary with sysKin's patch). While doing that I managed to compile a DirectShow standalone decoder! The old one was two years old already -- now you can get MPEG4-decoding-support with all the workarounds and postprocessing settings which you are used to from the regular build.

In my tests with 1920x1080 material the decoder felt a little slow. When I changed the output colour space to YV12 in the decoder setup it was much better though.

Find it at http://www.koepi.org/ !

Please report results here.

Cheers

It uses more CPU to decode then ffdshow, but not much. Besides that, it works fine.

Is this the very same decoder that's integrated into the "normal" XviD package or does it differ in some way? (Sorry if that's a stupid question... :))

[Koepi]

It differs from the normal package: it doesn't rely on xvidcore.dll but has the whole code statically linked in.So it's just one file that is added to your system (well, if you don't count the uninstaller and the links in the start-menu).

THANK YOU !
:thanks:

I notice, the new XviD.ax file is much, much bigger in size than previous builds!

Anyway, I've just tried it with Gabest's and Celtic_Druids latest test builds of Media Player Classic (ie: the ones with built in MP4 splitter) and although I can get MPEG-4 within MP4 files to use XviD's decoder filter, the aspect ratio signalling is not being detected :(

And.... Does this version of the filter support "interlaced" XviD encodes?
