Topic: Apple Prores .MOV file won't work with SVP

Hello!

I have a movie file, extension MOV, format: Apple ProRes. It play's in MPC-HC with sound only, seems to be that Haali Media Splitter kicks in, but ffdshow not (thus SVP won't smooth this video). I tried to rename the file to .AVI or .MKV no luck. VLC player 2.0.1 plays this file just fine (2.0 doesn't).
Do You have any clue, how could I get this file work with SVP 3.1.1?

File details (F10 in MPC-HC):

Thanks!

It works in MPC-HC with LAV decoder which is based on ffdshow  hmm
So may be some option isn't enabled in ffdshow by default.

Re: Apple Prores .MOV file won't work with SVP

Chainik, could You please tell me, which options to be modified in FFDSHOW settings, after default SVP 3.1.1 installation?
I did not modify any FFDSHOW settings, only SVP profiles.

Re: Apple Prores .MOV file won't work with SVP

I've no idea. But LAV + "ffdshow raw" works great.

dsgnethu
where I could download this file?
Did you try lav splitter and video decoder with this .mov?

Re: Apple Prores .MOV file won't work with SVP

Thanks! Blocking Matroska, preferring LAV Splitter solved the mistery. This topic can be closed:)

This video is really amazing with SVP in this quality, anyways, it cannot correct stuttering in some parts, which is a mistake made by the director and/or who cut the film.
