GBPVR still trying to use uninstalled decoder

[philly_phenom]

I've been having issues w/ ffdshow & the Arcsoft decoder seemed to do a better job on all of the file types I get, I switched the codec to Arcsoft for all the file types on the Playback tab in the Config app.

I was still having issues, so I checked the logs & it looked like GBPVR was still attempting to use ffdshow even though Arcsoft was selected in the MPEG-2 section.

I then uninstalled ffdshow & now PVRX2 crashes every time I attempt to watch an mpeg2 file - logs STILL show that it's attempting to use ffdshow even though it's no longer on the system.

I ran one of my mpeg files through graphedit & the produced graph shows Arcsoft - any ideas?

I've attacted all logs (even though the file name is misleading)

Thanks

UPDATE: Forget it - I see later in the file it's using Arcsoft - not sure why it's hanging or crashing (sometimes it hangs, sometimes crashes when playing MPEG-2 files) - on the plus side I got it to play back the H.264 files from the HDPVR :o

What makes you think its still trying to use the ffdshow decoders? It cant see any sign of that in your logs:

2008-07-02 14:18:43.812 VERBOSE Graph contains the following filters:
2008-07-02 14:18:43.812 VERBOSE - Video Renderer

It was this that fooled me - I'm not sure what this line means.

2008-07-02 14:18:34.406 VERBOSE getSetting(ShowClosedCaptions)
2008-07-02 14:18:34.406 VERBOSE getSetting(UseFFDSHOW)
2008-07-02 14:18:34.406 VERBOSE getSetting(TvShape)

However, I later saw the lines you referred to & realized I read the logs incorectly. Do you see anything that would indicate why it crashed when playing that mpg file?

Those lines dont mean its trying to use ffdshow.

I'm not sure what is causing your crash. Maybe try setting the audio renderer back to 'system default'. If this combination of decoders isnt doing the job you may need to try a different audio decoder or something.
