Videos not playing
-
I can watch the videos in VLC, but they still dont display in the sim.
-
I have installed this specific one: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/SVN%20builds%20by%20clsid/64-bit%20builds/ffdshow_rev4533_20140929_clsid_x64.exe/download
like Darkman suggested in windows 7 with SP1 x64 and the videos now seemed correctly (BMS 4.33).

@biller:
Just tried two 64bit decoder…But still …
I think there might be other reasons for why the videos failed to be played…Update :
Actually, there seems to be a problem even if you do install ffdshow manually - for some reason, only the ffdshow provided with 4.32 make videos play - and only in 32 bits.
So no permanent fix so far, apparently

I confirm that with installed this specific one: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/SVN%20builds%20by%20clsid/64-bit%20builds/ffdshow_rev4533_20140929_clsid_x64.exe/download
in windows 7 with SP1 x64, the intro movie as also the videos in 3 campaigns of Korea theater now seemed correctly in BMS 4.33, launched x64!

I’ve installed both 32bit and 64bit of ffdshow, intro video shows just fine.

Nikos.Works for me!

Hello fellow Pilots! I am still having problems, I have tried the above suggestions. I am using Windows 10, could that be the issue as I know Win 10 isn’t the preferred OS. The sim is running great otherwise, I haven’t tried to view in game movies, I am just guessing that if the intro dosen’t play the others won’t, correct? Thanks again.
EDIT: Yep, no movies in game. Will keep working on this. -
dont play in vista 64 either
ffdshow x64 installed, still no go. no biggy. -
Both ffdshow and x264vfw need to be installed.
Ffdshow x86, not necessary if you don’t plan to use 32 bits exe: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/SVN%20builds%20by%20clsid/generic%20builds/
ffdshow x64: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout/files/SVN%20builds%20by%20clsid/64-bit%20builds/
X264vfw: http://sourceforge.net/projects/x264vfw/files/x264vfw/ -

X264vfw: http://sourceforge.net/projects/x264vfw/files/x264vfw/Thank You Switch!! Adding X264vfw did the trick! I had already installed ffdshow x64. Please tell the moderators to “STICKY” this to the front page for us Windows 10 users. Thanks again.

added to the hotlist 4.33 specific section post.

Ok, given the confusion above I’ve closed this thread and stickied a new one with correct information and 2 options, the simple all in one “Mega” pack and the alternative install 2 or 3 codecs and decoder separately.

This should hopefully make it quicker and simpler for anyone new to this problem finding a solution.
Thank you to everyone who has helped, given feedback and confirmed what works.
