Download LAV Filters 0.78

Hendrik Leppkes has released version 0.78 of the LAV Filters. The LAV Filters are a collection of open source DirectShow filters, allowing the most common audio and video formats 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. In addition, there are also media players that already have it on board as standard, such as Media Player Classic – Home Cinema, Media Player Classic – Black Edition and VLC Media Player. The following changes and improvements have been made in version 0.78:

LAV Splitter

• New: Added identification of DTS:X in DTS HD-HRA streams
• New: Support for various stream flags in Matroska containers (Hearing Impaired, and more)
• Changed: Text-based subtitle selection now uses case-insensitive matches (ASCII characters only)
• Fixed: Many stream titles in MP4 files weren't being read properly

LAV Video

• New: Support for decoding SMC video
• Fixed: HLG video streams could have their HLG flag overridden in some circumstances

LAV Audio

• Fixed: TrueHD bitstreaming or Atmos tracks could cause output timestamps to be off, confusing some audio renderers
