LAV CUVID is DEAD. All of its functionality has been merged into LAV Video. LAV CUVID will not be developed any further.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi folks,

i would like to introduce my LAV CUVID Decoder.
It is a DirectShow Video Decoder utilizing the NVIDIA hardware decoder engine through the CUDA Video Decoding API ("CUVID").

Its still in its early stages, but its already been tested thoroughly and supports all major formats that the NVIDIA hardware can decode, which are right now H264, VC-1, MPEG2 and MPEG4-ASP (DivX/Xvid). Both progressive and interlaced types are supported.

As a bonus, when decoding interlaced content, it can do full adaptive deinterlacing, the best your GPU has to offer.

So, without further introduction, here it is!

Features
- Decoding of H264, VC-1, MPEG2 and MPEG4-ASP (each given appropriate hardware support)
- Full Adaptive Deinterlacing, including Frame Doubling (perfect smooth playback of 1080i/60 content!)
- Usable with all renderers! Including madVR, which is recommended for the best playback quality!
- NV12/YV12 output

Download
Source Code is available from my Git repository

Binarys are available here:

Version 0.13: Installer (32/64-bit, CUDA 4.0+) - 32-bit (CUDA 4.0+) - 64-bit (CUDA 4.0+) -- 32-bit (Older CUDA)

A note on the different versions: The CUDA 4.0 builds require a 270 series driver (or newer). The "Old CUDA" build should in theory work with much older drivers, in case you cannot upgrade.

Changelog -- Full changelog -- Release Notes
0.13 - 2011/09/13
- Improved resource release behavior
- Improved VC-1 in EVO with pulldown flags
