Broken .MOV splitter/decoder

[Valdez]

In another thread about AviSynth usage Foxyshadis said "Your .mov splitter or decoder might be broken".
What files do I have to check/replace to fix a broken .mov splitter and/or decoder?
TIA

Reinstall what ever package does your mov splitting/decoding.....

If you have QuickTime Alternate Reinstall it.
If you have QuickTime reinstall it.

What ever package allows you to playback mov's.

Neither of those two contains any DirectShow filters.

You need to install either Haali Media Splitter or Gabest's MP4/MOV splitter. The last one works best imo.

Thank you both for your help.

I downloaded the file. Where is the filter best placed - Windows System32 dir? BTW, I had never installed a MP4/MOV splitter so how come it might be broken? ;o)

@dat720: I have reinstalled/updated QT, but this did nothing to cure my problem (in case you are interested see the thread "Script Error" in AviSynth Usage - don't know how to insert a link to it here).

You may place the file anywhere. It doesn't matter. Then register it with this command:

Start -> Run -> regsvr32 "C:\example\mp4splitter.ax"

You might want to run GraphStudio to get an idea of exactly which filters are being used in the first place. You might need to explicitly unregister one if it's of too high a merit (ie, it'll get used even if you install a better one). Check the decoder that way too, you might find that it's a very old version of ffdshow or something like that.
