SmoothVideo Project → Using SVP → Waiting for ffdshow video... issue
I think I tried everything.
I unintalled codecs and then installed SVM package.
In ffdsow (raw) I have ffdhow_remote_message enabled and the grab tab is visible (don't know what for).
Tried different players, filters, renderers.
I have applied avisynth script and it does interpolation but with extreme CPU usage because doesn't use GPU.
SVP manager say all the time - Waiting for ffdshow video... but nothing happens.
Any solution?
We done some work on the bugs.
I think it is good idea to try new SVP 3.0.1.
This version is comming soon.
In XP I did not have this problem but I switched to Windows 7 and could not having SVP working with ffdshow raw using a different decoder (Cyberlink with HAM in my case).
Seems that in Windows 7 you have to add the ffdshow raw decoder in external filters in MPC-HC too aside from the decoder otherwise it doesn't work. Strange that in XP no need to do that, I just added Cyberlink 10 but didn't added ffdshow raw and it was working fine 
but no HAM of course 
P.S. off-topic
Is there a chance of adding HD 4xxx support in the future? Even partial? 
Probably not since no full OCL support but doesn't harm to ask
Thank you for great work,
Cheers

No if AMD will not do anything to add OpenCL 1.0 features to the OpenCL 1.0-compatible videocards like they said the 48xx series is.

SVP was working at my Windows 7 without any customization. But after PotPlayer installation something changed.
And now I have to add the ffdshow raw decoder in external filters in MPC-HC to make SVP working.
I have not tried to fix it before. May be later.
first of all, thank you for making this software free to download!
i currently have the issue where the icon in my system tray displays the message, "wating for ffdshow video..." and i am running windows 7 64 bit.
i have made the appropriate changes to ffdshow based on what i saw in the FAQ, but i'm still getting an error message.
i see that there is a fix to add dd the ffdshow raw decoder in external filters in MPC-HC, but i don't know what this means or how to do it. could anyone explain this further to me or offer a different suggestion? thank you!!

Hi developers:
Catching occasion I'd like to add sth to topic. New SVP came up and I make recently another trial with no success.
When video is playing and SVP says it waits for ffdshow, it also is frozen and when I right click on it nothing happen. Earlier I thought it is supposed to be frozen to ensure no changes during playback but now I know it is a bad sign. Moreover when I play video with some very old Widezu's scripts and SVP is launched it seems like SVP override avisynth script but doesn't apply its own script, only freeze and waits for ffdshow.
To summarize it knows that ffdshow is running but it stuck in some moment when talking with ffdshow.
Any hints what could be wrong (for me and few other people I found with this problem)?
Hmm. I'm still receiving a "Waiting for ffdshow video" message.
Here are some screenshots that show the settings I'm using.
If anyone has any suggestions for me, I'd love to hear them! Thank You!

2 more screenshots.
Note: I'm using SVP to get the "Soap Opera Effect" on the videos I watch so the settings I pick were to try and get that.

Why you using deinterlacing tab? Disable it. And make sure ffdshow is really running - check if there is ffdshow icon in tray or right click on video and check what filters are used.

Thank you for responding! I uncheked deinterlacing.
Now everything is responding, but the Media Player Classic Home crashes when the SVP smooth playback starts.

Can you show details of this error?

I need more information about frozen bug. It is first bug report about it. Try to reinstall SVP and install ffdShow from SVP distributive.
@MAG79
I've just been writing to you bug details when I come up with some idea. It strange because I though I've already checked this idea.... - anyway, I've made two another windows accounts to be sure: one with my real name and one with some stupid short name. It occurs that the problem was with my real name because in %Userprofile% path was polish letter "ł" from Unicode shit or something.
Details for Bug elimination (account with ł):
- SVP is saving and loading its setting successfully
- SVP icon is getting freeze when video is playing and unfreeze when video stops (freeze - I mean I right click on it and nothing happens)
- although icon is frozen SVP does something to active avisynth scripts in ffdshow (for example degrain), because when SVP runs those scripts don't work as they were cleaned
@tman
It is important what filters are you actually using (right click on video -> filters) . You can also try another player (I like KMplayer). But you have to be careful because all those modern players has internal filters which have to be disabled in order to make ffdshow and SVP working.
@MAG79 the error message is:

Is it a x64 build of MPC-HC? 
SVP is working with x32 players only (and with x32 builds of ffdshow).
dzid_
Thanks.
So the problem is in i18n only. It's not the first time and I think it'll fixed in the next bug-fix release.
Chainik
i just downloaded the x32 version and it works perfectly! thank you for all your help. your program is great!
I can't wait for 3.0.4 bug-fix release!! I can test it if any betas.
dzid_
Thanks. We will contact you when the issue will be fixed.
It's the same problem when windows user name contains "ё" char. 
Fedr
Thank you for bug report. We will fix it next release.
Same problem with DVBViewer. FFdshow Video renderer selected and no video image (DVBViewer freezes). SVP shows Waiting for ffdshow video.
Configured FFdshow with 2 tips in FAQ (Grab and remote API).
With MPC-HC no problem.
Win7 x64
AMD Athlon II X4 640
ATI 5670
tecram
Try this:
I found that if we disable fast channel switching in DVBViewer then no error occurred and there is no need to resize video by ffdshow.
(Settings -> TV+Radio -> Fast Channel Switching).
Same issue.
Unfortunately, I'm not a DVBViewer user.
What happen when run DVBViewer with ffdShow but without SVP launched?
