WMP and FFDShow... help please

[badass]

ok...i enabled mpeg 2...still not working... the i did the regsvr32 thing...trying to register the ffdshow.ax file said file not found even though its right there in the folder... ffdshow audio is used for movies in wmp....but still not ffdshow video...although this is the only dvd decoder installed... at least i think it is...any other ideas...

you need to enter the full path sometimes and in quotes
i.e.

regsvr32 /u "c:\blah blah\blah.ax"

hey guys,
i have had issues with since for some time with dvds looking grainy, pixelated and artifacting... however i am now trying to use ffdshow as the decoder and to process the video. In WMP 11 i can go to dvd options and under advanced all of the ffdshow options are there but when i actually play a dvd its seems as though wmp isn't using ffdshow as the only icon appearing in the taskbar is the ffdshow audio icon. Is there anyway to enable wmp to use this as the dvd decoder. I have also enabled the onscreendisplay feature for the decoder to see if it was using it but it doesn't appear so i'm assuming it isn't. any help please...

Crazyfool,

I have the same problem now. Its been a long time since you open this thread and as I read thru it the end does not have any conclusion. Did you finally get ffdshow to work with WMP?

Thanks!

Well... I finally moved on to MPC and got better control on the ffdshow settings. Now I'm sure that ffdshow configuration is being used and any tweaking I do effects the playback...
