I'd never make the installer require users to have any specific decoder installed. ffdshow or other.

I doubt that mpc is very much used in windows environment, my impression is that the vast majority is using WMP. I remember trying mpc once, it showed poor performance and crashed a lot so I gave it up. "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy"

There are too many variants on Windows these days but Win7 does have excellent support for broadcast captures. It still needs the same codec and splitter support for mp4, avi and mkv files that NPVR does. As for MPC vs NPVR usage stats, let's just agree to disagree, I was simply making the point there are probably hundreds of thousands of people using ffdshow successfully Martin

Not on this planet. "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy"

Not on this planet. ffdshow tryouts are windows only, you probably are confusing this with ffmpeg From one site K-Lite with ffdshow/mpc http://fileforum.betanews.com/search?s=k-lite&x=0&y=0 you will note 35 million downloads Sourecforge has 10,000 downloads daily http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-...s/timeline Martin |
