I recently got a used Stradis SDM275 professional mpeg-2 decoder card on the cheap. I've managed to get it working in WinXP with Media Player but would like to use it for the output in GBPVR (obviously). It really doesn't matter if I get the menus to work as I can switch to a different input on the TV to switch back and forth between my video card and stradis decoder.
The problem seems to be that windows does not recognize it as a mpeg-2 decoder, so I can't set it as the default mpeg decoder. Also, when I open a mpeg-2 file in graphedit, there are only 2 filters, the file source filter and a Stradis Mpeg decoder filter. It looks as though the decoder combines the demultiplexer, decoder and renderer into one filter.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get this working with GBPVR, or barring that, have any suggestions on software that will work with it? I've done quite alot of googling on this and the only thing I can find that might work is MythTV.
