Just reformatted my HD (*sigh* :( again) and I'm going through installing Media Player Classic, ffdshow, DVD Shrink, and all that good stuff, and I got stubled on ffdshow on a few settings. (well, really just one).

First off, something totally unrelated to my ffdshow problem. :p How do I get to the "Nvidia Decoder Properties?" And how can I make the nvidia decoder work with Media Player Classic, while still using ffdshow to do it's stuff.

Because I figure the Nvidia Decoder can Deinterlace it, and the ffdshow can apply it's sharpening and other stuff.

Now, if you can't tell me the above, what would be the best mode of deinterlacing in ffdshow? (and also other settings you might suggest using in ffdshow)

Thanks. :)

heres a question: when i use FFdshow, i use it for postprocessing and sharpening (for video). the thing is...it seems to add a reddish tint to videos, or make it a little bit darker...because when you first start it, its lighter and more realistic, and all the sudden it gets a bit darker. ideas?

Wondering the same myself. I still don't get what this purevideo decoder is all about, what players it works with, does it work with ffdshow active, does it even make quality better and for what formats etc etc.

Maby I should post this in Video since it seems no one knows here and it does have something to do with video.
