LAV Filters - DirectShow Media Splitter and Decoders

[huhn]

mpc is using the Microsot DTV-DVD. it most likely falling back to it.

so the DXVA2_ModeMPEG2_VLD is broken not mpeg 2 dxva in general ?

[nevcairiel]

DXVA2_ModeMPEG2_VLD means "full acceleration", which is really the only proper mode.
IDCT or MoComp are "partial acceleration", which is not implemented in LAV or MPC-HC, because its usually not worth it, and all modern cards support full acceleration.

MPEG2 is rather easy to decode, maybe you should just stick to CPU

thx that's all i want to know.

some else got some problem with this and asked me if my hard can support mpeg 2. bad new for him.

Hi, I've been trying to install via the zip method with recent versions of LAVFilters, but I'm seeing some issues.

LAVSplitter.ax will not register at all. I have no problems with the audio and video decoders though.
Does LAVSplitter.ax simply no longer self register? I see the installer still works.

I am right clicking and selecting run as administrator on the .bat files. I am logged in as administrator and the files are present in the directory I'm trying to register within. I'm using Windows 7 x64, 32bit files are placed in C:\Windows\SysWOW64, while 64bit files are placed in C:\Windows\System32.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I've tried searching and found nothing.

I found out the cause of failure LAV splitter connecting to KMPlayer for MP4 files with 4K resolution. It was Nokia Music Player.
After removing (and NMP emuzed filters) all earned. And for POT player Nokia Music Player didn`t prevent.

Hi nev, would you add an option "load embedded fonts"(enable by default) in lav splitter? That will be nice.

LAV Splitter has this functionality integrated since "ages". Could you describe, what you're trying to do with what file format, what other software you're using and perhaps provide a sample, which doesn't work.

Haali has the option while lav has not. http://i.imgur.com/uVgntbK.png

Here is a mkv embedded msyh596.ttf font. http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shar...&uk=3558042035

When playing the file on my Win7 China OS which default font is Microsoft YaHei(msyh.ttf), the menu captions of player are spoiled because there is a conflict between MKVs msyh596.ttf and OSs msyh.ttf.

With Haali, everything is fine even the "Load embedded fonts" option is set to "yes", dont know how haali do that.

You guys cannot reproduce this becasuse your OSs default font is not MS YaHei.So the best solution is that lav splitter adds a "Load embedded fonts" option, then I could disable embedded font by myself.

[nevcairiel]

Haali stores the font in a temp directory and loads it from there, LAV loads it directly from memory, maybe Windows behaves differently in those two situations.

Hi,

thank you very much for this great decoder. I'm not sure if it is possible to control the decoder via command line or hotkeys. I want to switch between "decoding/bitstreaming" with my remote and did not find anything about this. Is there a way to do this? Perhaps you can save this in the regestry also but I did not find any settings.

Regards,

B

Thanks nev, sounds you are right.

The way lav loads fonts is just fine, its ok. Just need a solution to avoid the spoiled captions when using lav splitter , so thats why i hope lav add a "Load embedded fonts" option.

If the maker of this mkv file trims the font (only keeps the needed subset for ass), it is highly recommended to change the font's name, or else it is easy to cause such a conflict, especially when there's no rule of implementation for re-loading a system font.

It is not always good to stop re-loading the font in such cases. Assume that the maker not only trims the font, but also changes the font, e.g., by adding a special character which is not present in original font, now by not loading the embedded fonts you'll get correct GUI with incorrect subtitles. It might be quite common when using legacy system CJK fonts which usually have many characters missing. The best solution is still renaming the trimmed/edited font when making it.

LAV Filters version 0.57.0 have a file IntelQuickSyncDecoder.dll version 0.41.0.0 (bild 30.01.2013). But last Intel QuickSync Decoder have version 0.43 (bild 25.05.2013). Why? And how I can update this file? Or it is not allowed?

[nevcairiel]

I only supply tested versions. If there is an old version, that usually means one of two things:

1) I didn't have time or the resources/hardware/software to test the new version yet (like the Windows 8 features, i have no Win8 system right now)
2) or, i found a problem with the new version and therefor still use the older one.

Exchanging that DLL with another one is your prerogative, and your own risk.

Can I decide with exe will use this filter? I haven't found an option like that, as on FFDShow...

No, hence why you were not told that it was possible the last time you asked.

You probably are not sending all the video data, so the currect clip wont get "played" to the end and GPU is trying to decode partial / mixed up video frames. I know, I have seen the same results even with Nvidia GPU in similar source filter bug.
