  • Great app, have used it many times.
  • ffdshow is a good codec, but it is not updated for a long time - the latest version was released in September, 2014 therefore today it became already morally outdated. It seems that developers decided to stop its development. It is sad.

  • Here's my problem: sd mpeg2 video (interlaced content) playback with yadif 2x fps enabled has an issue: somewhere between the second half and bottom of the screen, there's a horizontal line which is quite annoying, especially on fast-moving scenes. I tried everything on two different laptops (lenovo g 50-70 and a 5000 series dell).. most likely it's a software issue, combined with the newer generations of intel hd graphics. And I also found something: under the output tab, there's that option called "set interlaced flag in output media type"and if man rolls the mouse over it, that's what it says: "enabling ffdshow internal deinterlacing will automatically disable this option to avoid video being deinterlaced twice." But for me it seems like that's the cause of that horizontal line appearing, looks to me like that option gets 'in behind' enabled when I enable yadif 2x. Can somebody look into this please? or is there another option I didn't know about? Otherwise, great decoding tool :)

  • After pulling my hair out trying to get a game to work, this software did the trick.(was missing a codec)
  • FFDshow has been a stable, clean, and *fast* codec library for many years. No tricks. No adverts. Just *great* codecs.
