I tried to install ffdshow but everytime it gets to installing the file "ffdshow.ax" it screws up and halts the installation, and i end up having to cancel the installation or the installation cancels itself expressing an error in the running process.
I dont think the installation rolls back the changes when the program is interrupted either, so some of my programs such as windows media player and AIM report errors specifying the error signature with the application name and specify the modname as "ffdshow.ax"
Is there a way to explain this?

Try downloading FFDShow again and then Try re-installing it....
I have Heard of problems like this caused from there being a Corrupted file in the FFDShow Installer and re-downloading the File usually Fixes this problem...
At least it is Worth a Try....

Let me guess FFDShow-20050727? Problem is that I compiled FFDShow.ax with MSVC7.1 but neglected to include msvcr71.dll. Can't believe that people have systems without that file though. Well actually if you search you will probably find 5+ copies, just none in your system folder.
Anyway, in FFDShow-20050803.exe FFDShow.ax was compiled with ICL9/MSVC6 so it should install fine. Otherwise just copy msvcr71.dll to your system folder or ffdshow's install dir and register FFDShow.ax or re-install.

Since WMP is a dshow based player, yes.
Depends I guess. FFDShow is much more powerfull, but if you just want subs? Also, not tested it myself but I believe that FFDShow requires less CPU for rendering subs than VobSub.

I just tried to install FFDShow-20051018.exe under Windows 98SE. The installer gets as far as asking me what components I want to install and when I click Next, it crashes with an illegal operation.
I also have FFDShow-20051009.exe and that one does exactly the same thing.
I was told that I need it for a video I downloaded recently, but I can't even get it to install!

Try 20051013. That was my last release so I know for a fact that it doesn't crash (under win2k/XP). Can't really think what would cause the others to crash though and I haven't seen any other reports, but I guess most people aren't running win98.
You could try mplayer or VLC instead.

Thanks, that version worked. I've tried the others a couple times and they crash at the point every time (after clicking Next on the component selection page).

I have MPC 6.4.8.4, that wouldn't play the file by itself. VLC NEVER works properly for me. I haven't tried the most recent version, but I tried the one before it and it wouldn't play anything properly.

Oops, sorry about that. I'm so used to people recommending MPC that I didn't read it as carefully as I should have.

Can i use FFDShow with Windows Media Player?

How do you set that up (i.e. instruct WMP to use ffdshow)?

Good tip! Didn't know MPlayer came in a non-Unix flavor;Trying it now...
[Update:} Cool! MPlayer can play DVB .tsp files!
Thanks!
