Some codecs are missing in the video dialog list

[Dreamer]

Some codecs are missing suddenly - in v1.4g, but also in other 1.4x versions and in v1.3c.

Missing video codecs: ffdshow
Missing video codecs: ffdshow, cyberlink (old), intervideo

All these codecs are listed in the guids.ini file.

I don't know if it's a bug, or just some strange problem here, so please check it and tell me if you can see those codecs in the list. Thanks.

Can you check if the filters are still registered and their *.ax or *.dll files still exist.

use a program like DirectShow Filter Manager

You can find the codec file paths through DD video options dialog (appears in the description box when you change the selected codec)

I have reinstalled FFDShow and now it works again. It was probably a webcam soft, I have tested one (not mine) and uninstalled the software - so probably also some codecs have been uninstalled. I'll reinstall also the other codecs.
