SMPlayer with DivX h.264 decoder | ||||

| Hi everybody. This is my first post :oops:
I want to know if is there a way to use DivX h.264 decoder to play video with SMPlayer? That because using MPC (that uses DivX h.264 decoder) I can play smoothly a 1080p movie trailer, but with my SMPlayer (that uses ffh264) I can't. I prefer to use SMPlayer because I think is better to manage multiple audio tracks and multiple subtitles. Another question: in SMPlayer is there a way to know what filters are running as in MPC (right click in the video frame -> filter)? Thank for your help. | ||||

| I doubt that because smplayer uses mplayer that only uses builtin codecs. | ||||

What a pity! :cry: I think SMPlayer (frontend of MPlayer) is better than MPC. Thanks Baldrick. | ||||

| DivX H.264 Decoder it's DirectShow filter.
MPlayer does not use DirectShow. However... (MPlayer build from SMPlayer) can use (directly) some codecs libraries. For example: CoreAVCDecoder.ax, divx.dll, ... Unfortunately, not DivXDecH264.ax. | ||||

So the only way to get a smooth h.264 video in SMPlayer is to buy CoreAVC :-x I'll try with ffmpeg-mt to use both the cores of my CPU, if this doesn't work I'll consider the purchase. Anyway, why if I play the same "problematic" 1080p video using MPlayer using the simple command
I can see it smoothly? How is it possible to know which parameters SMPlayer passes to MPlayer? Thanks |
