There is nothing at all wrong with VLC. It's a great ap. I justthought of DScaler because I was one of the developers of the earlyversion (then without the MPEG-2 decoder) some years ago when it used tobe called dTV.

It was my start at writing deinterlacing filters and the like. VLCshould be fine too but I had not yet seen your reply about VLC when Ifirst posted.

never found this easy with dshow filters.)

I don't think you need to actually "install" VLC; I believe you can just
copy the file to your desktop, and run it from there without any formal

install.

So, installation is even easier than I stated.  At least, the only change I
can see between just using the app as is or using the installer is how the
desktop icon looks.

I know people who bundle VLC in with commercial products.

Once you have the filter registered then app's like Zoom Player or evenWindows Media can play the media.
