I had edited the newdecod.grf files to use the good LAV filters, but when I went back to check them, found that they had mostly reverted back to my old settings.

Hi Colin the error I had was with the 64bit version the 32bit works ok but I seem to have the opposite to you

Tutioune or minitioune load the beginning of the graph ( usrc and demultiplexer filters) and ask windows for finishing the graph using the codec installed on your computer.
Windows look at the codec filters installed on your PC and get the one that has the best "merit"

so no choice is done by minitioune, it is windows that choose.
on some computer it will get the Microsoft DTV-DVD video decoder, on another computer LAV Video decoder , both decoders being installed on each computer. It just depends on how are set the "merit" of your codec filter.

If you want that your graph will use the LAV filters, you must set the preference to them.
under XP it was easy to do it using filmerit http://paul.glagla.free.fr/filmerit_en.htm
to do that the best way under win7, Win8 and Win10, it is the use of "Win7DSFilter Tweaker" https://www.codecguide.com/windows7_pre ... weaker.htm

Many thanks Jean-Pierre,

I had given the LAV filters a higher merit using GraphStudioNext but windows still used the Microsoft filters.
Win7DSFilter Tweaker_6.2 has allowed me to now select the LAV filters.
