HTPC related sites and resources seem to be dropping like flies at the moment. First[intlink id=“1918” type=“post”]Media Center Studio disappeared[/intlink], then [intlink id=“2141” type=“post”]TheHTPC.net developed problems[/intlink], and now the official site for Haali Media Splitter is down. Fortunately the media splitter can still be downloaded from lots of other sites, and we will keep a mirror here in case other sites drop it. There are also alternatives, including the MPC-HC standalone codecs and LAV. Links to these are available on our[intlink id=“741” type=“page”]downloads[/intlink] page. Lets hope that this is the last in the recent series of HTPC related losses.

2Full 7MC codec setup
I’ve previously posted several times about codec issues on 7mc, but I’ve now got a solution that is comprehensive, fairly simple and works consistently. With a few free codecs and utilities you can have full decoding support, DXVA, subtitles and fantastic flexibility working in 64bit (or 32bit) Media Center. The following instructions are specific to the x64 edition, but should work just as well on the 32bit edition.

0Problems with DS splitters playing a range of m2ts files
Ever since settings up a HTPC running Win7 Media Center I have had the occasional problem playing m2ts files. ffdshow supports all of the codecs used in m2ts files but still a few files play without without either audio or video, or the playback isn’t smooth despite more than ample hardware. I have experimented extensively with both haali matroska splitter and [intlink id=“58” type=“post”]gabests mpeg splitter[/intlink] but both have their flaws.

0Haali finally release official x64 splitter
Haali Media Splitter is now “officially” available for 64bit. To download simply go to the Haali site and download from the link at the top right. Both 32bit and 64bit splitter are included. Various fixes are mentioned altho I haven’t yet had opportunity to test them.
2Uninstall Haali Media Splitter x64
There is a beta (or maybe its Alpha) installer for Haali Media Splitter x64 out and about (for links to the installer see my previous post on [intlink id=“14” type=“post”]windows 7 x64 codecs[/intlink]). Sadly the uninstall seems to be broken, which can cause havoc when trying to diagnose codec issues. To remove Haali completely you need to unregister the following files manually using regsvr32 /u filename
(from a command prompt run as administrator)
