Basically I do agree, but there are some misconceptions about DSS2Mod here...

DSS2Mod is DirectShow based. It will always convert VFR to CFR, i.e. "convertfps=true" is not needed. It will NOT index the source, but there is a "preroll" parameter which is extremely useful for difficult sources (default is 0, a value of 15 works well for most sources, and it should be raised to 100 or even higher for difficult sources). In my experience it works best when LAV Filters are used as the DirectShow source filters.

DSS2Mod does not handle audio, DirectShowSource should be used for audio. IMO this combination beats ffms2 for most sources (it probably does not beat DG's tools).
