I suggest you write two different INFs; one for each of your HardwareID. They will both point to your driver file, but they will have different strings. ...or you could also modify your current INF to fit all that in. Is this just too simple?

I have two identical filter factories for two hardware devices. So both filters have the same friendly name (do they?). How can I distinguish them? For example: two identical PCI cards controlled by the same AVStream driver (btw, I do pin-centric processing). Both appear as DirectShow filters of the same type.But I want to instantiate filter for exatly the chosen card. Actually the devices are not pci cards but child devices of a controller device, so I can also pass some information from driver to application to achieve desired result.
