FFDShow and Purevideo

[ScoobyDoo]

Ive currently got FFDShow installed to do all my video playback and it works great.
Ive just got hold of a few HD clips (.ts) format which require Nvidias Purevideo.

If I install purevideo will it take over FFDShow or just use Purevideo for the HD content as I still want to use FFDShow for all other media files and dont want to use the purevideo codec.

You should be able to use both but you will have to make sure ffdshow isn't set to decode some of the stuff purevideo does, purevideo would be the better codec to use in most cases so only use ffdshow for any post processing after it if need be.

I tried this one for .ts files of some clips i got http://www.dvbportal.de/projects/hdtvpump/index.html, does the job.

Couldnt get hdtvdump to work, installed ok but still wouldnt play hd clips.

Ive installed Purevideo and it plays .ts (hd clips) fine, whilst leaving FFDshow to sort out all the other codecs.
