Well...no idea :D. There must be another mpeg-2 decoder used. If you are really dying to know, the debug build will report which filters are in use...

bsierad: What do you mean loose? Blank screen? Only sound?? I don't see anything strange in the logs, it should work. I hate to repeat myself but please try one of the earlier releases...that playback window keeps bugging me :D Mantor: DShow is a funny thing. What filters are used is based on...

TurboTim07: Please zip both wc4dvd.exe and your original mpeg2.dll and send it to my e-mail (address is on the website). It seems you might have a different build of both files. Since mpeg2.dll provided in the zip file is from my dvd, it appears it does not work with yours. Also, please try to...

WinME has got to be the WORST OS ever! I never had any windows related problems in XP so I try to stay the hell away from 98se as well :D. OK, enough ranting...I tried the game and it works...OK? No, not really, but read on. Fresh install, only ATi Radeon & Audigy2 drivers (+ DX9.0a which they...

hmm...I didn't test it in WinME. I only have XP and win 98 on the old computer. I'll see if I can install ME somewhere and try it out. In the mean time you could try if one of the older versions works for you or is it an entirely new issue...

My plesure :cool:. I must say I did learn a thing or two while programming in DirectShow so it was fun :D. The new site is up, with version 1.0 :p. cff, I've included that fix for you, please tell me if there's any change (or if I've broken something for somebody else :) )

It seems like you do not have AC3 filter installed. Try this one: http://ac3filter.sourceforge.net. It should work.

A gap of 1/3rd of a second? That would be hard to notice. Do you mean there's 300msec missing from the beginning of the movie or that the whole thing freezes for that amount of time? The second would of course be normal, since playback has to be stopped & new file loaded and both things take...

Uh,oh...German graph log :D. But I see you use Ligos filters as well, so I didn't really have to decode it ;). In short...the update I made for KrisV was pretty much XP specific since w98 uses different filters. So it is expected things would run as previously on win98. There is a new version on...

I just tried the Ligos filters on Win98 and the video works. It is painfully slow since it doesn't use overlay, but still. Of course the same problem with skipping appears. Perhaps, rather than forcing other filters (which might not work on win98) I could try to create a workaroud and try to...

Thanks for the report, the logs have been most helpful. I have recreated the problem and it seems the problems are caused by Ligos Mpeg2 spillter and decoder filter used in the graph (lines 57 & 59 of dxmci.log). These filters have a very high priority and will almost always be used instead of...

I'm having troubles recreating your problems on my win98 machine. In fact, I'm having troubles getting any results at all! :confused: I've tried mpeg2dec filter (which will register normally, but cannot be added to any graph - Class not registered error - this can be verified with graphedit)...

You are correct! It's been so long since I've played the game I forgot all the keyboard shortcuts :) CTRL-J did the trick, 10x...

Yeah, I figured it out already...it was Vobsub's fault Aspect Ratio was wrong (I was checking what filters were in use). I don't change the resolution in .dll, this is all handled by the game. I think it's 640x480. If you have LCD, refresh rate shouldn't matter anyway... But movies aside...my...

Another update available on the site. I'm pretty sure it's mpeg2 filters fault things aren't working for everyone so I decided to include Mpeg2dec GPL filter (the same as Media Player Classic has). The dll will first search for this filter to use, if it doesn't find it, it will rely on...

regsvr32 can be used to register or unregister (regsvr32 /u) directshow filters. You can also load something like vobsub to verify what filters are used for decoding. Ivivideo.ax & iviaudio.ax are WinDVD filters. CLVSD.ax is cyberlink video filter, but WC4 vob files also don't play in...

Good thing it didn't make things worse :D. Thx for the system reports but I really don't know what to do with them. DirectX & DVD decoder filter versions probably play bigger role when something is not working...I use WinDVD filters so that would probably be the safest bet to try first. I...

Here is a mirror if you have problems getting the files...

Here is the update: dxmci_update.zip. As said...this will reopen dx playback window after every MCI_CLOSE. I have also included some checking if DirectShow graph fails, so you should get an error if you do not have mpeg2 filters installed...

Glad to hear it works for some of you. I have an idea what to do for the next version. Currently the DirectShow is set up to hide the movie window after it completes the playback and reuse it for the next movie. It also keeps the old DirectShow graph and just changes File Source. This is an...
