I have Nvidia purevideo (a directshow decoder) that offloads mpeg-2 decoding to my GPU. However, my manufacturers software (AverTV, I have an AVermedia a180) does not use this decoder. Is there any player that would use this filter?

you can unregister all the decoders you have excepting NVidea and try your software is it will use that.

That doesn't work... If i unregister the filter that the software installed, the software does not play at all.

I think the filter is hardcoded in... (i have also tried renaming the nvidia filter to the avermedia one, doesn't work).

I have also tried other software... watchHDTV crashes, and GB-PVR works and uses the nvidia decoder, but it crashes also.

Are there any other 3rd party apps to watch a ATSC stream that can use directshow decoders?
