FFDshow YV12 Huffy to Avisynth/VDub ??

[Poutnik]

How can be read AVI file coded by YV12 version of Huffy (FFDshow) ?

I have tried for encoding both HFYU and FFVH fourCC codes, suggested by FFDshow
( based on older Leak's advise http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=659078#post659078 ) :thanks:

In my favourite MV2Player :cool: ( I suppose directshow based ) both HFYU/FFVH videos play fine.

BUT I cannot read it neither
directly by VDub (cannot locate decompressor for FFDS )
nor by Directshowsource() function. ( cannot locate decompressor for hfuy/ffvh ) :scared:

Note that in both system.ini ( I use W98se) and registry
is at VIDC.FFDS item put ff_vfw.dll, (present in system directory)

What is/am I doing wrong ? :stupid:

Open ffdshow's vfw decoder settings, make sure huffyuv is enabled.

Thank you, Richard

I knew i must be stupid.
Simple user error - for some reason I did not noticed existence
of decoder tab in vfw config window.
Now I remember I had known it exists, but completely forgot it..:D

IMO it's an ffdshow bug -- codecs you select during install are enabled for directshow playback but not VFW. Very annoying to have to enable them manually.
