Is it possible to prevent ffdshow from being used by certain applications?
Yes. That is possible. If ffdshow is causing an incompatibility problem with an application or a game, then you should blacklist that application in ffdshow. First you need to find out the filename of the main executable of the application. For example Oblivion.exe. Now go to ffdshow Video decoder configuration and click on DirectShow Control. Enable the box in front of Don’t use ffdshow in: and click on the Edit button behind it. Add the filename of your application to the list and then click on OK. You can do the same in ffdshow Audio decoder configuration.
