In comparison to vladds procedure, the Arcsoft package posted in the eac2ac3 thread requires much fewer number of files.

And ran the register.bat from a command prompt, which reported success.

All you need to do is place it in the same folder as the codecs and then you can register and use them in any DirectShow player, you dont need an installation of either TMT2 or TMT3, just the codecs.

Disclaimer: it does not use or modify any ArcSoft code.).

But I guess its easier than avsforum.com - How to use TMT 3 decoders in third party apps because that its also not supported by ArcSoft even if you should be able to do that with your legit product.

Arcsoft Video Decoder Registration Data Does

Ive created a set of batch files following that guide, to semi-automate things for someone that wanted the codecs minus the bloat, and by keeping user registration data does not require any cracking.

Step by step: Install TMT2; Run gettmt2.bat; Uninstall TMT2; Run remove.bat; Install TMT3; Run gettmt3.bat; Uninstall TMT3; Rerun remove.bat; Run puttmt2.bat; Run puttmt3.bat This cant beat the crack presented here on easiness, tough, but it is hell better than using custom (dumb and unsafe) automations that you have no control over - lets name DVBs HD PACK.

I cant image one would have to go through all this trouble if you have a copy of the FULL tmt3 package There must be a way: just install TMT3, backup the codec folder backup the checkactivate.dll.

Uninstall TMT3, restart, restore the codec folder and the checkactivate.dll.

This should be enough right.

It was intended only for users that had a registered version of TMT2 in the past and now have switched to TMT3 to find a missing functionality.

Both methods breaks the User Licence Agreement, but the later is doing it less, common sense wise ArcSoft TMT2 officially supports using the codecs with DirectShow, while TMT3 no longer allows that by removing the activation runtime from the package - its an added mechanism used to restrict or control the functionality of the Software described in the User License Agreement.

The crack presented by shard circumvents that, so you can use only that file.

I only posted after reading the Disclaimer that made it look as if it was not a crack.

I guess I was jealous because whenever I stumble upon something I open a command prompt first instead of opening a programming ide.

So, I should not recommend the crack but I will After a second look, its safe and its working.

Arcsoft Video Decoder Cracked Version Of

While on the subject of crack, would you know if the Arcsoft DTS Decoder package used in eac3to conversion tool is also running a cracked version of the checkactivate.dll Many thanks and best regards.

ASAudioHD.ax checkactivate.dll DtsDec.dll dtsdecoderdll.dll MagCore.dll MagPCMac.dll MagUIEngine.dll MagUIInter.dll 2.

Run regsvr32.exe ASAudioHD.ax from a command line in your eac3to folder.

I want it only because of the video decoder wich is suppose to be better then MPC-HC video decoder.

And no, it does not use a cracked version, it uses files from TMT3 and a very old checkactivate.dll, but that does not make it much better even if the files wereare available in the trial ArcSoft packages.

And the ArcSoft Video Decoder IS better than MPC-HC (ffmpeg) at least for interlaced files and for VC-1 decoding.

But can be worse at other things like high ref frames in H264 or some HD-DVDs.

Two questions: 1.

You consider the version of checkactivate.dll posted by shard a crack because it removes dependencies on the 4 Mag.dll files.

Is this understanding correct 2.
