Having problem playing x264 encoded file in WMP, also AvsP

[St Devious]

Just encoded a FRAPS video with MeGUI/x264/AAC/MP4. The output file doesn't play in WMP nor AvsP in Win 7 RC x64. Don't know If I'm missing a codec or something else

I have ffdshow + Haali Media Splitter installed.

I just get a black screen in WMP, and the slider doesn't move.

Here is the graph

Here is what I get from Haali when I try to play it in WMP

Your output is beyond the dxva standard(resolution higher than FullHD, and ref is too high for AMD card)
Maybe the Microsoft decoder tried using DXVA but failed， you need to use a pure software decoder instead of the Microsoft one.
Here is a tool that can change the default AVC decoder in win7:

Do you have a sample clip? RTM should be improved over RC.

no i don't have it anymore. maybe i'll try to encode again.
