Ok, heres the problem. Im trying to get hardware accelerated decoding of 1080p h.264 .mkv files (rips of my own Bluray and HD-DVDs) within vista media center. The files will play nicely in WMP with 5% CPU usage with no problems, so theres nothing wrong with the files as far as I can see. If I try to play them in media center (through My Movies plugin or in the Video Library) I get a black screen and 5 seconds of AC3 audio, then it cuts out. Nothing.
Ive done a lot of googling and the only suggestion I have found is to adjust the merits of the H.264 codecs installed using Radlight filter manager until Cyberlink H.264 codec is used by default in Graphedit. The problem is that Cyberlink has always come top in the merit order, as it is being used by WMP. Graphedit confirms this. Ive disabled the FFDshow H.264 decoder and dont think Ive got any others installed. So, does anyone know how to force VMC to use a particular H.264 codec, specifically Cyberlink?
Thanks in advance for any help.
