Input

DV frames of DV25, DV50 and DV100 types
media types
   AM_MEDIA_TYPE::majortype: MEDIATYPE_Interleaved
   AM_MEDIA_TYPE::subtype:
     MEDIASUBTYPE_dvsd
     MEDIASUBTYPE_dv25
     MEDIASUBTYPE_dv50
     MEDIASUBTYPE_dvh1
   AM_MEDIA_TYPE::formattype: FORMAT_DvInfo

Outputs

   Video:
       Original DV frames of DV25, DV50 and DV100 types from input
       media types:
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::majortype: MEDIATYPE_Video
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::subtype:
               MEDIASUBTYPE_dvsd
               MEDIASUBTYPE_dv25
               MEDIASUBTYPE_dv50
               MEDIASUBTYPE_dvh1
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::formattype: FORMAT_VideoInfo

   Audio (from 1 to 8 pins, depends from input media type):
       PCM sound:
           for MEDIASUBTYPE_dvsd: 32KHz, 16 bits, stereo
           for another subtypes: 48KHz, 16 bits, stereo
       Sound can be splitted to separate mono channels (see DVSplitter.idl and checkbox on DVSplitter Property Page)
       media types:
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::majortype: MEDIATYPE_Audio
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::subtype: MEDIASUBTYPE_PCM
           AM_MEDIA_TYPE::formattype: FORMAT_WaveFormatEx

Features

• Supports 1, 2 or 4 stereo channels on separate audio pins (depends on input media type).
• Stereo sound can be splitted on separate mono channels (2, 4 or 8 channels).
• Input samples accumulated in internal container to create leading of audio stream.

Supported DV Standards

• SMPTE 314M: Data Structure for DV-Based Audio, Data and Compressed Video - 25 and 50 Mb/s
• SMPTE 370M: Data Structure for DV-Based Audio, Data and Compressed Video at 100 Mb/s 1080/60i, 1080/50i, 720/60p, 720/50p

Special fixes for Snell and Wilcox MXF Parser

720p bug: Snell and Wilcox MXF Parser set invalid time stamp for 720p mode. MediaLooks DV Splitter correct this times, but S&W parser hold stream with Reference Clock and don't allow play it with more fast speed. This fix resolve problem of capturing to file, but don't correct output to renders.

First sample bug in ver 1.21: at first Run() command after graph building graph is freeze. Reason of bug: S&W is freeze after first call of IMemAllocator::GetBuffer() if thread context don't switched in call of GetBuffer(). Bug fix: set small delay in first call of IMemAllocator::GetBuffer() (Sleep(1))
