However, this does expose the guts of a working DS filter - it could be easily modified to handle other underlying codecs. This is by design for patent liability reasons. Only the H264 codec from ffmpeg is exposed, and only the decoder is enabled. This filter wraps the libavcodec portion of the FFMpeg project. It only registers for the "H264" FourCC, and the drivers are installed with "normal" priority, so it should coexist with other codecs peacefully. HAX264 is a DirectShow Video Transform Filter for decoding H264(AVC) video. Hax264 - Open Source DirectShow Decoding for H264(AVC) Video
