Hello,
I'm learning more and more each day but I'm still a little confused... Can someone recommend a light playback solution for Windows 7 HP 32 bit ? And NO codec packs.
From what i understood Windows 7 uses now a different playback solution -- the new Media Foundation and not DirectShow anymore.
My ideas using WMP 12 for MKV Playback, Subtitles, etc:
1. Haali Media Splitter but Haali Media Splitter is a DirectShow filter and not Windows Media Foundation filter.
2. DirectVobSub (VSFilter)
3. FFdshow tryouts ??? (not sure if nedeed)
OR :
1. DivX MKV - a Windows Media Foundation filter (so must be 100 % compatible with Windows 7)
If you use the Haali splitter than you must use a DirectShow H.264 decoder which isn't optimal on Windows 7. However, with the DivX MKV filter you will be able to use the Windows 7 built-in Media Foundation H.264 decoder which is faster and newer (DXVA v2.0, etc). Other possibility is to use the Haali Media Splitter together with the '' Preferred Filter Tweaker for Windows 7 '' aka Win7DSFilterTweaker but I don't want any Registry changes.
Any recommendations ?
