Thread: Saving And Loading Preset Settings

All the settings you've made can be saved through ffdshow for use at a later time, for example, on another computer. Start the ffdshow Video decoder configuration. Make sure you have all your settings done, then click on Image settings. Click on Save to file ... to save the preset. Select a location and give a name to the preset. To load a preset, click on Read from file ... To create a completely new preset from a saved preset, go to New> From file and select the file. To enable a preset, double¬click on it.

ffdshow can also auto-load a preset depending on which format or codec you're using (or any other parameter). In the same Image Settings view, check the box that says Automatic preset loading. First click the preset you want to use, then click Preset autoload conditions. Here, select the parameters you want to check before enabling the preset. For example, if we want all XviD images to make use of a preset, check the On FOURCC match box, click the button next to it, and select XVID from the list. Click OK.
