exactly which codec does megui use to decode avc video stream. i have installed ffdshow but it isnt being used or its icon would show.

is there any way to specify which decoder to use

i'm fairly ignorant of how avisynth works but i thought the scripts would use installed codecs or do they have their own built-in ones?

thank you for any help

Depends on the method by which you get H.264 into MeGUI ...

Just clicking the file as "Input" will use whatever your system is setup to use (so on XP/Vista it will be DirectShowSource filters based on merit, on Windows 7 it will be the MediaFoundation codecs - no matter what's installed, unless you have run the Media Foundation bypass tool) ...

Indexing the file will use the DGDecAVC package (DGSource) to open ...

Using the Avisynth script creator to input the file gives a range of options to use to get it in (DGDecNV, DSS2, etc) ...
