DirectShow media splitter and powerful audio and video decoders that are designed to allow playback for a wide range of multimedia formats
LAV Filters - ffmpeg based DirectShow Splitter and Decoders
LAV Filters are a set of DirectShow filters based on the libavformat and libavcodec libraries
from the ffmpeg project, which will allow you to play virtually any format in a DirectShow player.
The Audio and Video Decoder will register with a relatively high merit, which should make
it the preferred decoder by default. Most players offer a way to choose the preferred
decoder however.

Hardware Decoding
If you have a good graphics chipset then you can use it
- People with Nvidia GPU need to select NVIDIA CUVID
- For Intel 2nd generation core processor and above, need to select Intel QuickSync
- For AMD gpu select DXVA2 (copy-back)
- If the selected hardware decoder is available then "Available" will be written next to it
- If the selected hardware decoder is not available then "Not Available" will be written next to it
