Crash of VSFilter in Xvid4PSP chain

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Encoding from MPEG2 to h264
2. Using FFMS2 & internal LAV option for testing
3. Each encode seems to load DirectVobSub that is persistent and doesn't go away

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
5.1.305.0 Win7 64bit

Please provide any additional information below.

Any way to disable the subtitle loader?  I'm not using any subtitles at all.

Subs: No is checked in decoder tab.

Hmm I just found subtitles options in the Splitter options, where Default is 
"Default", so I set that to "Disabled", perhaps that will stop DirectVobSub 
from loading.

Certainly some nice new options!

Not sure why you have VSFilter loaded when Subs=No. LAV Splitter + LAV Video + 
Subs=No -> VSFilter should be never ever loaded. If only LAV Splitter can 
autoload VSFilter (like Haali Media Splitter does), but in my tests it doesn't 
happens.

Not happening on my laptop when I set the Splitter before doing any encoding.

Just to clarify, the default Splitter behaviour seems to be to load the subs.

By defaul LAV Splitter will create output pin for subtitle stream, but I never 
heard that this splitter can autoload VSFilter to connect to this pin. However, 
DirectShow can autoload some filters into Graph - by design. That's why I use 
ConnectDirect method when LAV Video Decoder is used, this way autoloading of 
other filters is mostly impossible (I think so). Can you tell me what settings 
do you have when VSFilter loaded: LAV Splitter - on? LAV Video Decoder - on\off?

FFMS2 & internal LAV option shouldn't be used for decoding mpeg2 videos.
But I do agree with you, the new xvid4psp autoloads vsfilter now everytime 
FFMS2 is used and that wasn't the case before.

Wait, wait, wait.. FFMS2 or DSS2? I thought we are talking about DSS2 and FFMS2 
was only a typo?!

But you can disable it by double clicking the green arrow in the taskbar and 
change it's setting to "Do not Load" or "Load when needed".

yeah sorry mate DSS2, FFMS2 makes no sense at all :)  I just wanted to test the 
LAV with both CUVID on my desktop and Quicksync on my laptop.  Quality looks 
good so far.

When it was loading I had the Splitter on Default and the Decoder on Off.

Thanks for verifying at least!

When Decoder=off some other filters can be autoloaded to the Graph without even 
asking. I thought that ConnectDirect, that used when Decoder=on, will get rid 
of such a filters. Unfortunatelly, if "Always load" (see screenshot above) is 
choosen in VSFilter settings - even ConnectDirect method seems doesn't help.. 
DirectShow - it's hell :)

Sorry to ask a dumb question but how can I unregister VSFilter completely?

Go to Start->Run and enter this:
regsvr32 /u vsfilter.dll

For 64-bit OS probably this will be more correct:
%systemroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32.exe /u vsfilter.dll

Or, if you know where vsfilter.dll is placed on your drive, you can rename this 
dll.

Thanks again for your help, couldn't unregister, got some sort of error, but 
managed to rename the file, and for now I am not getting VSFilter loaded or 
DirectVobSub tray icon when encoding.

I should say, before I unregistered this, this filter was set not to load in 
all 3 locations, but it still kept loading.

I use CCCP, in the setting you can uncheck "AutoLoad VSFilter" and that will 
stop loading for me
