I have installd ffdshow and have sucessfully ripped a movie, i started to import the movie to Windows Movie Maker. But then it says some problem have ouccured and WMM shuts down. And this didnt just happen to this movie. I took a downloaded AMV, and imported it to WMM, but the same happend. But when i uninstalled it, everything whent allright with no problems.

Whits makes thing very iritating, since i dont what to reinstall ffdshow when i am ripping and then uninstall it wheb im gona edit the movie.

I've had this problem exactly, and it's irritating as hell. Eventually I decided that the only solution was to not use ffdshow. If there *is* a real solution, I'd like to hear it. Other than the fact that ffdshow crashed everything, it worked rather well.

I started using XviD instead, myself. But now I find out that it has a whole bundle of it's own problems. I don't recommend it.

What kind of problems?

I'd advise disabling FFDShow's support for the codecs you already have installed. That should resolve such issues, or at least most of them...

Are there any other good decoders?
