Publisher review for Win7DSFilterTweaker (formerly Preferred Filter Tweaker) 5.6:

Review by: Codec Guide
Windows 7 uses its own codecs for decoding several audio and video formats. Using third party DirectShow filters instead of the native filters is not possible without making difficult changes to the Windows Registry.



Win7DSFilterTweaker was designed to be a small tool that allows you to configure your preferred DirectShow filters with just a few mouse clicks. It is quick, easy, and changes can always be undone. If you for example prefer to use ffdshow or CoreAVC for decoding H.264 video then you can do so by using this tool.



This tool is particularly useful for the Microsoft players, namely Windows Media Player and Media Center. Certain advanced third party players, such as Media Player Classic, are already capable of using third party filters without using this tool.



This tool can set the preferred filter for the following video formats:

H.264

MPEG-4 (Xvid/DivX/MP4V)

MPEG-2

MPEG-1

VC-1 and WMVA

WMV1/2/3

DV

MJPEG

AAC

MP3

MP2

MP1
