ffdshow MPEG-4 Video Decoder rev1019 Download _ Common Tools

Ffdshow can be called the Almighty decoder, encoder. Initially ffdshow was just an MPEG video decoder, but now he can do much more than that. It can decode the video format already far beyond the MEPG4 range, including Indeo video,wmv, MPEG2 and so on. At the same time, it also provides a wealth of processing options, you can sharpen the screen, adjust the brightness of the screen and so on. More than just video, ffdshow now can also decode audio, AC3, MP3 and other audio formats can be supported. And you can plug in the Winamp DSP Plug-ins, To improve the auditory effect. It can be said that the ffdshow is already a very good tool for the multimedia playback of Windows platform.
