ffdshow v1.1.4222 [2012-01-03]

ffdshow is a software tool designed for rapid and high-quality decoding and encoding of media, particularly in the MPEG-4 ASP and AVC (H.264) formats, although it also supports a wide range of other video and audio formats. This free software, distributed under the GPL license, is compatible with Windows and functions as a filter for decoding in DirectShow and VFW. Following installation, ffdshow seamlessly integrates with compatible DirectShow or VFW media players such as Media Player Classic, Winamp, and Windows Media Player, eliminating the need for separate codecs for the various formats supported by the software. It is important to note that ffdshow does not include media player or container parsers.
