This only happens to MKV files and only after I installed HAALI media splitter. Is there a setting I can try to make sure the file is released after playing? I use ffdshow audio + video, and next to that haali for MKV. Is there a conflict of some kind? it is annoying that the only way to delete that file is first play something else or quit mediacenter first.

I read through the specs and the only part that seems related to channel mapping is the ChannelPositions element. As it is grayed out, I assume it is not used and still unspecified. Are you interested in adding channel mapping for audio tracks to Matroska? I could work on a proposal, if there is enough interest.

Because Redcode is a wavelet codec, the files contain actually several lower resolution versions of the video which the codec each in turn uses to build the next higher resolution version. That means that if you have a 4K file, you can easily extract 2K, 1K or even .5K footage directly from it, without having to decode the full 4K data and then scale it down. For QuickTime-based and other programs that don't have native support for this feature, you can create QuickTime reference movies. These are small files that don't contain any actual video data but just pointers to the right places in the original video file. So, for example in Final Cut Pro, you can import the QuickTime reference files that only have pointers to the parts of the 4K file that contain the lower resolution version. This way you can work on speedy low resolution video without having to sample it down first. This is an extremely cool feature. It would be great if the Matroska container could provide information about these different resolution versions in a video file that uses a wavelet codec. Like exporting the video with only one of several different language audio tracks, one could choose to export only a low-res version of the video. For example to burn it on DVD or to copy it on a video iPod/iPhone. I realize that this may be difficult to implement, just a suggestion. But it would really set apart the Matroska container from the others once more. cheers Mauro -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger geh?rt?

One alternative that other media developers are exploring is to add a Dshow filter which takes in 'avc1' and converts it to 'h264' or wrap haali splitter in a filter which exposes both avc1 and h264.

After seeking, Haali source filter sends out a bunch of samples which have preroll=1(with negative timestamps, decoder ignores these timestamps) followed by samples with preroll=0. Decoder decodes all these samples and only sends the samples with preroll=0 to downstream renderer. When renderer receives these samples, timestamps on these samples are already behind the clock and this causes renderer to send late quality messages. Haali source can check that the timestamp of the sample that it is sending out should be greater than current streamtime. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms780225.aspx What we see, it that after a seek the timestamp of the first few samples (which have preroll=0) is behind current StreamTime. This causes decoder to drop frames. This happens with ffdshow and Cyberlink decoders as well. Legal Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
