The DirectShow filter ffdshow makes it possible to play, for example, DivX, XviD, WMV, MPEG1 and MPEG2 files in various media players. The project has bled to death a bit, the last official (alpha!) version has already been released 12 October of the past year. A while ago, however, one Celtic_Druid picked up the thread again. Please note that these are unofficial CVS builds. Two different versions are available. The first is faster but may be less stable, the second is not as fast but should be more stable. The changes in this release are as follows:

Changes in this release:

• SIMD soft light
• UINT8->uint8_t
• VYUY support in XviD colorspace conversion routines
• better support for 8 bit paletted images input in VFW
• correct MMX SAD
• don’t use shuffle instruction in 3dnow! code
• dotproduct.asm
• successfully compiled 64-bit version – untested
• updated libav codec, x264
• don’t always enable YV12 output in VFW mode
• fallback C idct and fdct for DCT filter
• few 64-bit compatibility fixes
• a step closer to x64 build
• don’t crash with zero delay in dolby decoder
• few vobsub fixes,
• fixed YUY2 levels crash
• updated libtheora to alpha5
• updated vs 2005 project
• working on avc in mpeg support
• x264 patches from Sharktooth’s builds
• 2xSai and hq2x resizers
• Don’t try to always get output buffer size for audio samples – use last known value. Should fix compatibility problems with some applications, hopefully won’t break other.
• libtheora decoder supports radlight parser
• maybe not very useful and not fully correct but: h.263 and mpeg quantization and dequantization in DCT filter
• aspect ratios in OSD
• display current quantization matrices when available
• use xcm extension for supplied quantization matrices,
• cqm extension support
• updated libav codec
• updated USA 2005 projects
