FFDShow suggestions? - video playback problems

[Digiface]

Is there any suggestions what FFDShow version i should use? I have been using rev. 610 (20061201) for a while now, but i have sometimes problems with video (xvid/divx) playback.

Often playback (atleast once) goes either like fast forward for a couple of seconds or then picture freezes (jumpy playback) for a short time, while sound continues normally.

Though i'm not sure if it's a FFDShow issue. I'm thinking to install ffdshow-20051129, because it's said to be a good version. Is that so? Or should i just install latest beta?

Any other ideas what can cause those video playback issues?

Hi,
I've had good luck with the latest clsid "stable' builds. A 1.6ghz Duron processor is probably borderline for decoding, especially if you are using any post-production filters. Even realtime volume-normalizing which is enabled by default could rob you of enough resources to playback video.

Hi GMaq.

I don't use any post-processing, volume-normalizing or resizing. With xvid/divx videos my player CPU usage moves between around 15-25%.

Could you give a link to those clsid "stable" builds?

Follow the automatic links applied to the word ' ffdshow ' in these posts, and click on the 'Download' link. That'll take you to the Sourceforge page where the builds are located.

Should i download that "ffdshow tryouts official beta3 - generic build (stable)"?

Get the newest clsid icl10 SSE. See if it drops your CPU usage a little. I think your processor has SSE instuction set.
Combine ffdshow with MPC if your not already.

Ok, i just installed it. CPU is still the same, but i have to see, if that playback issue is still present.
