BS Player Crashing everytime on Quicktime HD trailers.

[gate1975mlm]

Hello I am using the latest build of BS player 2.11 build 940 and when ever I try to play the Quicktime HD trailers I get an error and BS player crashes.

Every other media player I tried does not crash when playing the Quicktime HD trailers. And I tried all of them.


I am also using FFDShow from K-Lite Codec Pack 2.75 Full Version.

I have seen this problem in the past with older versions of BS Player. But this problem keeps poping up every so often. :oops:

I really hope this can be fixed.


Below is the crash info!

Anybody here ? :evil:

Never used ffdshow, but just downloaded a .mov HD trailer, because of this post:

http://bsplayer.com/forum/viewtopic....408&highlight=

and it's working OK, using CoreAAC and COreAVC decoder.

Downloaded the first video file. BSPlayer v1.36 crashed as soon as I hit play. Video played properly after remuxing to a Matroska file. Maybe the MOV splitter is bad (mplayer2.exe crashed too)?

I used ffdshow 2006-05-22 + CoreAAC 1.0b9 2004-02-05.

I tried the first trailer too (here is a link to the file I downloaded), but with successful results (when using CoreAVC and FFDShow with Haali MediaSplitter).
Here they are:

Default DirectSound Device:
quartz.dll, Size: 1962496 bytes, Version 6.5.1.902

CoreAVC Video Decoder:
CoreAVCDecoder.ax, Size: 364032 bytes, Version 0.0.0.4

ffdshow Audio Decoder:
ffdshow.ax, Size: 2113536 bytes, Version 1.0.2.1999

Source (Haali Media Splitter):
splitter.ax, Size: 493568 bytes, Version 1.6.224.23

Oh, BSplayer was able to play it successfully with either .MOV and .HDMOV extensions (it seems that Windows Media Player is able to use ffdshow filters instead of QT ones only with .HDMOV files)

So what do I need to do to play the Quicktime HD videos with BSplayer?

You can try to install ffdshow + CoreAVC + Haali MediaSplitter
I installed them through K-Lite codec pack..but, if you want to use it, I suggest you to not install all of the codecs contained in that package, choose only the ones you really need :)

You are the Man!!!! Or Girl lol :lol:

That worked! All this time I have only been using FFDShow. But the CoreAVC + Haali MediaSplitter did the trick!

Thanks so much! :D :D

Yes, MAN, please :oops:

You're welcome!
I'm glad to have been able to provide you the solution to the problem :D

(even if probably also adicoto's solution would had worked )

Tizio :: I didn't have an MP4 splitter and used Quartz as one. Why do you need both Ffdshow and CoreAVC?

[Tizio]

Well, ffdshow is not really needed, but since he is already using it (I think for other movie formats) I tried to use it also for this test. As you can see in my previous post ffdshow is only used for the audio decoding part, it doesn't influence the video decoding

For those videos Haali Media Splitter and CoreAVC are enough :)

hey guys :D

Yes I am using FFDShow for Xvid and Divx movies. Would you recommend using anything better?

[Tizio]

I almost always used XviD for xvids and DivX for divxs (before I used ffdshow)

starting from this week I came back to use ffdshow, and I'm almost sure J7N will suggest you to use ffdshow :)

[J7N]

Yes, I would. ;) DivX and XviD are both different implementations of the same MPEG-4 ASP standard and can be decoded using a single decoder, which would be libavcodec. Libavcodec can also decode older incompatible Microsoft MPEG-4 and MPEG-4 AVC. I only recommend to keep the payware CoreAVC for (hi resolution) H.264 video and temporarily switch to this decoder when your processor appears a little too slow to successfully decode these videos using libavcodec.

And this is my case :P
