Here's how I use DXVA on my computer (AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+, 3 GB of RAM, Radeon HD 4770):
For decoding of h264 I also use MPCVideoDec.ax.
For splitting I use Haali's media splitter.
For all audio, except AC3/DTS I use ffdshow.
For AC3/DTS I use Intervideo's audio decoder, from Cole2k's pack (I only select Intervideo's video decoder for DVDs and Intervideo's audio decoder for AC3/DTS, other components of this pack I don't use).
In BS.Player I use the "Overlay mixer" for rendering mode.
BS.Player now has no problem opening h264 from .mov, .mp4, .m4v, .mkv and probably all of them, but those are the ones I tested.
I also tested how very good this setup is and I can play 60fps 1080p HD video with no problem at all and with no droped frames! That's amazing!
If you'd like to check if your setup can hanle the toughest HD videos out there, here are some of the toughest:
1080p@60fps Another 1080p@60fps Third 1080p@60fps 42Mbps 1080p - with this one your HDD will get loud
If I got someone interrested and would like to know what order I use, when I set up this setup:
1) Install ffdshow, disable h264 and AC3/DTS
2) Install MatroskaSplitter
3) Install Intervideo audio and video decoder from Cole2k's pack
4) Install vsfilter
5) Install MPCVideoDec.ax and register it regsvr32 MPCVideoDec.ax
I hope you can achieve playback with no frames droped with all of the above samples - then nothing can be to tough for you setup anymore.
