I have an Athlon-XP, and can play 1080p content without a hitch,
so here is my guide to making that happen on your computer.
This guide took me quite a while, so I hope you enjoy it, and if you
have any questions, discuss them here.

Guide to play High-Definition Content :: by [u]jblade[/u]
[u]Credits[/u] : From SCT mitch for being stubborn and illogic for making the guide look nice; and members from HDbits, including wiak, LtWeasel, and I used some bits and pieces of DBaT's guide on HDbits
First Install these Filters and Players:
[*] The best player for low recources and great playback: Media Player Classic
x264 encoded with .mkv or .mp4 container:
[*] For just CoreAVC 1.1 Pro (which decodes x264 and includes haali media splitter)
[*] DirectVobSub (VSFilter) , subtitles Link
[*] And for those .mp4 /.mkv files use Haali Media Splitter Site Link and the Direct Download Link
- When playing .mkv /.mp4 files you should see the following icon in your taskbar: http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/hdguide/haali.jpg
[*] AAC audio playback, lots of choices like FFDShow, Nero, CoreAAC
[*] For Everything else audio related,
AC3filter One of the best Audio decoders out there
To play .ts /.mpeg (Transport Stream and MPEG 2 Respectively)
There are 2 main options
[*] [u]1[/u]. nVidia Purevideo Decoder
* Note: To use this version of the nVidia Purevideo decoder, I find it runs best using Windows Media Player + the Decoder , you do not need a nVidia Video Card, I run it fine with my ATI X850XT. I do hear later versions of the decoder do no work with ATI video cards If you have a nVidia card, I encourage you to use the latest version. (You will know if purevideo is or not working if you see an icon in your taskbar when playing Transport Stream/ MPEG-2 content like the following image http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/hdguide/purevideo.jpg
)
[*] [u]2[/u]. You can also use PowerDVD 7. just make sure that if you install PowerDVD 7 that you disable the h.264 support it has, and continue to use CoreAVC, for h.264.
To disabe PowerDVD's useless h.264/AVC codec go to Start->Run and put:
Citat:
regsvr32 /u "[folder]\VideoFilter\CL264dec.ax"
Where [folder] is the PowerDVD folder for example:
Citat:
regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDVD\VideoFilter\CL264dec.ax"
For Playing .XviD - use Koepi's Latest "Experimental Build" and play it in Media Player Classic (MPC)
For Playing .x264 - which is most of the High Definition content on SCT
[*] [u]1[/u]. Install CoreAVC.
[*] [u]2[/u]. Make sure FFDShow's H.264 decoding is disable by doing the following:
- Play a .x264 video in MPC
Right click and go to filters. If you see FFDshow there like the following image, then click it:
[*] [u]3[/u]. Reopen the .x264 file and now when you go to filters it should like something like this
[*] [u]4[/u]. CoreAVC will now get used instead of FFDShow for H.264 decoding.

Follow those instructions for installing the CoreAVC codec (for h.264) I use Media Player Classic 6.4.9.0 to play the files.

How to play Apple's Quicktime Trailers in High Definition with CoreAVC
-This allows nearly anyone no matter how good/bad your hardware is to playback 1080p trailers at normal speeds.
[*] [u]1[/u]. Unistall Apple Quicktime.
[*] [u]2[/u]. Install Quicktime Alternative
[*] [u]3[/u]. Go to the Apple Trailers website
[*] [u]4[/u]. Choose a HD (High Definition) trailer of your choice, I chose Spider-Man 3
[*] [u]5[/u]. Left Click on the Resolution you wish to download, I normally choose 1080p, even though I have a 1280x1024 monitor because I like to think it will have a better image, although some people (mithc) say it will look worse due to aspect ratio changes. So choose whatever you want.
http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/hdguide/resolution.jp...
[*] [u]6[/u].Then choose Download and Play with Media Player Classic
http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/hdguide/quicktime1.jp...
[*] [u]7[/u]. The important part in the next step is to check the box that says "Rename to .hdmov" and then once the file is done downloading, open the file with media player classic, and under filters CoreAVC should be there..
(Note: any h.264 file that has the file extension of apples .mov can be renamed .hdmov and opened with MPC to use CoreAVC, Quicktime Alternative just makes it easier)
P.S.
You can try setting CoreAVC as the prefered codec, to do this
Go to Options -> External Filters -> Add Filter -> CoreAVC Video Decoder - then click prefer -> Apply -> OK
Should work after that you can also add your other codecs, like the ones I have listed. I suggest you keep it in a similiar order, with at least coreavc at the top
