Changes in v0.26

General:
-The VC2010 runtime is no longer required to be installed

LAV Splitter:
-Further VC-1 in MKV improvements

Dumme Frage: Braucht man das, wenn man ffmpeg drauf hat? Wozu ist das gut?

[berti]

das teil basiert auf teilen von ffmpeg, mit einigen zusätzlichen Erweiterungen.

auszug aus der readme:

LAV Filters - ffmpeg based DirectShow Splitter and Decoders

LAV Filters are a set of DirectShow filters based on the libavformat and libavcodec libraries
from the ffmpeg project, which will allow you to play virtually any format in a DirectShow player.

The filters are still under Development, so not every feature is finished, or every format supported.

und

This currently includes (but is not limited to)
   MKV/WebM, AVI, MP4/MOV, TS/M2TS/MPG, FLV, OGG, BluRay (.bdmv and .mpls)

Zusätzlich ersetzt das Teil  auch den haali-splitter, der manchmal auf w7-aero (zumindestens hier) extrem viel Unsinn macht.
Aber: sehr viel genaueres kann ich dir auch noch nicht sagen, hab das teil als ffmpeg-ersatz erst seit wenigen wochen im testbetrieb .

Changes in v0.27

General:
-Added debug versions which generate log files on your desktop

LAV Splitter:
-Fixed a memory leak when switching streams
-Increased probe buffer size (which results in files to be properly detected in more cases)
-Fixed playback of MPEG-TS files with a odd program configuration

LAV Audio:
-Improvements to the DTS decoder interface
-Support for 1.1.0.0
-Try to reverse any channel upmixing done by the decoder, outputting the audio as close to the original source as possible.
-New Channel Mapping functionality
-Output only \"standard\" channel layouts (Mono, Stereo, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1), filling non-existant channels with silence. Required by some HDMI receivers with \"odd\" source layouts. (default)
-Convert Mono to Stereo (simply double the audio channel)
-Convert 6.1 to 7.1 (Back Center gets doubled into both back channels)

Its still in very early stages, but it already supports all major formats that the NVIDIA hardware can decode, which are right now H264, VC-1, MPEG2 and MPEG4-ASP (DivX/Xvid). Both progressive and interlaced types are supported.

As a bonus, when decoding interlaced content, it can do full adaptive deinterlacing, the best your GPU has to offer.

Important Note:

- This is a decoder for NVIDIA GPUs, it does not work with ATI/AMD or Intel, and it never will!

Changes in LAV CUVID Decoder 0.10:

- Refuse connection to MPEG-2 4:2:2 material
- Improved VC-1 interlaced timestamp handling
• LAV CUVID Decoder 0.9:
- Slightly faster seeking
- Improvements to dynamic format changes
- Safe-Guards against crashes inside the NVIDIA decoding functions
