dsplayer had an amazing handling of wmv because we were able to use the microsoft asf parser. Unfortunately the dvdplayer demuxer is used for this branch so getting them to work will be a pain in the ass as usual. But i recently found the problem in dvdplayer for seeking in wmv files. The problem as been fixed in xbmc trunk for almost 1 month if i remember.
The only way we would get a perfect streaming would be to write an internal demuxer for the dvdplayer with the microsoft asf parser. But actually their a problem with the microsoft license about that library that make it illegal to use in a open source project so even if i write it i won't be able to add it.

i've seen some interesting changes in DSCodec branch. i'd love to play with a new build (if you guys can build one, i'll appreciate it)

@tiben20: how is your branch, up-to-date with trunk, or you plan to synchronize it from time to time? i ask that because there are some interesting changes in trunk also. Thanks!

When i got some time to do it i will update the code. I'm not a beast with git so it's a bit longer for me to do it. I would be able to work much more on the branch if i wasn't working 6 days on 7. Even today was my day off and i got a call because they needed me. So this week i worked 6.5 days on 7

Can we expect to get maybe AC3 and DTS Bitstreaming working in one of the next releases?
Even if it doenst handle the HD Codecs this would be great.
Thx anyway!

Good news Tiben Smile

Does this mean we should see a build soon that'll combine the tweaks you performed to CPU usage; with restored bitsteam DD/DTS, and perhaps some work on the subtitle functionality (ok perhaps a pipe dream) so I can switch over from DSPlayer Big Grin

I have ATI HD5550.
I used the latest version of the sources from https: / / github.com/tiben20/xbmc

If in the settings XBMC turn off DXVA - when playing MPEG-2 - black screen Sad

(tried with different system decoders), and show that uses DirectShow. Turn DXVA in setting XBMC - the picture is, but it says that it uses a decoder ff-mpeg2video
