Download LAV Filters 0.74
Version 0.74 of the LAV Filters has been released. The LAV Filters are a collection of open source DirectShow filters that allow the most common formats of audio and video to be played in a media player of your choice. It is part of the K-Lite Codec Pack and the Combined Community Codec Pack, among others. There are also media players, such as Media Player Classic – Home Cinema and VLC Media Player, which already have it on board as standard. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:
LAV Splitter
- Changed: Using GnuTLS for HTTPS and other TLS protocols, improving performance and compatibility with a lot of web streaming services (ie. YouTube Live Streams through youtube-dl, and more)
- Fixed: Keyframes in MP4 files were being reported with a slightly offset timestamp, resulting in slow keyframe seeking
- Fixed: Subtitles that stretch over chapter boundaries could be lost in Ordered Chapter MKV files
- Fixed: Fonts embedded in MKVs without a proper mimetype were not being imported (now it checks the file extensions for .ttf/.otf as well)
LAV Videos
- NEW: Initial support for parsing HDR10+ (SMPTE ST 2094-40) metadata, and passing it to the video renderer
- NEW: Using the dav1d AV1 decoder for significantly improved AV1 decoding performance
- Changed: Re-enabled experimental hardware acceleration for H.264 MVC 3D decoding on Intel GPUs, disabled by default
- Changed: Updated Intel MediaSDK dispatchers to the latest Media SDK, fixing compatibility with newer runtimes in the Intel DCH drivers
- Changed: Improved support for additional UtVideo subtypes
LAV Audio
- Changed: Added an option to disable the PCM fallback when bitstreaming is requested
- Fixed: Further improvements to TrueHD Bitstreaming, resolving glitching on more new titles (particularly seamless branching titles)
- Fixed: Automatic fallback from bitstreaming to PCM could crash in some situations
