ffdshow and ts files

[whurlston]

Using the 1080i sample from the link you gave me, ffdshow will connect to pins with either of the following settings:

Possibly just need to change the reported format from FORMAT_VIDEOINFO to FORMAT_VIDEOINFO2? I'll try it tomorrow and let you know if it works.

Is the MPC H264 decoder likely to be as much effort? I only ask cause I get better results from it with Bluray playback than I do ffdshow... At the mo with my H264 recording sync issues I'm willing to try anything! Maybe I've not got your patched ffdshow though.

[whurlston]

I'll look into the MPC decoder next.

It doesnt work for H.264. Unfortunately H.264 decoders are not as interchangeable as MPEG2 decoders, so I pretty much have to build in specific support for each decoder I want to work. That hasnt been done for ffdshow.

I would assume this includes files produced by the Hauppauge HD-PVR? I'm teetering on buying one, but I really would need ffdshow since I use it's warped resize feature since I still watch plenty of 4:3 material.

Any transport stream files with H.264 video, including those from an HD-PVR are in the same boat.

ah, gotcha.. very simplistic and easy for me to say, but hope you can make it work..

Thanks - I got it working correctly with ffdshow for the next build.

[whurlston]

Awesome. I believe that we might get lucky and the MPC filter may work with the same settings since a lot of the coders work on both projects.

Unfortunately not. I tried the same settings (first of the two you posted) on that decoder, but they didnt work.

[whurlston]

K. I can get you the necessary settings.
