FFDSHOW and DVD Playback

[VORTECH]

Greetings,

How do I make use of FFDSHOW when playing back DVDs using GBPVR's default DVD player? My understanding (from searching the forums) is that GBPVR will make use of FFDSHOW automatically (if it's installed)

This does not seem to be the case with me....... To validate GBPVR was using FDDSHOW during playback, I enabled the OSD function in FFDSHOW, which puts up a OSD in the corner of the screen with FFDSHOW statistics, and started a DVD. I don't see an indication that that FFDSHOW is being used...

Can anyone help me fill in the blanks? Thanks in advance!

You could try editing config.xml and setting <UseFFDSHOW>true</UseFFDSHOW> to see if it helps.

I think you just need to allow it to handle raw video in video codecs (same as setting uncompressed sound in audio). Just set to all supported.
