To manually change setting for ffdshow audio decoder...This is noticed in Registry...

On one PC ffdhsow filter is registered only under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\GNU\...], on another PC it's under both [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\GNU\...] and [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\...].

How could this happen?

If to change settings, should change both or just HKLM?

Thanks!

A few settings (like the enabled codecs) can be set in HKLM. This to control some the initial settings for all users. ffdshow will look first in HKCU for its settings, if not found, HKLM is checked.

So for adjusting the settings you should use HKCU.
