that's a warning error telling you that you in fact have not put the files from the .zip into the plugins32/64 folder
the ffdlls folder has not been put in place so the dlls are missing and can not be loaded - there are no 'optional extras' included in the zip that you can decide to ignore

OK, this seems a condemn... can you please check if I've done all properly?

This is the plugins32 folder...

... with the plugin FFInput and the subfolder I've created, ffdlls. And this is the ffdlls folder...

... with the four .dll included. Where am I wrong? Now the error message has gone, but missing codec is always there.

The files are in the right place now
The missing codec message means you didn't choose the ffmpeg plugin when opening the video, as it's from a different plugin

->select your required plugin by the 'files of type' dropdown when opening a video
Virtualdub's 'file information' dialog gives information about an opened video, and also shows you what plugin is being used to open it

FccHandlers Quicktime plugin for mp4 and mov's is the better one - the links on that page don't work, but there's a two mirror's lower down the page and in my sig

Personally I'd just go with FFMeg plugin as it can load a lot of formats and it doesn't require external encoders either

I'm on the mirror page of FccHandler's stuff...

... you said it's better FFMeg plugin for MP4, which one would it be among those?

fcchandler quicktime plugin is right there in the image, 3rd one on the list
ffmpeg plugin isn't by fcchandler so it won't be on that page, it's in my sig

Hi,
I am experiencing problems decoding AVC (and ASP sometimes).

It seems that each requested frame is returned later when different frame is requested. So first time when I open the movie nothing is returned (garbage frame), then I jump somewhere and first frame is returned (or maybe still delayed) and so on.
This problem I have with QuickTime.vdplugin + x264vfw, QuickTime.vdplugin + ffdshow libavcodec, remuxed mp4 to avi + x264vfw.
The same behavior with some setups involving xvid ASP files too.
This problem makes it impossible even to do simple transcode to other codec/format in VD.

Any suggestions whose problem it is? VD, vfw interface, codec itself?
Anyway FFInputDriver does not have it so I will try to use it for now.

That's a b-frame problem
Newer codecs can need frames from the future (in the video) to decode the frame you're on now, so the output is delayed by how many b-frames ahead it needs
VFW doesn't let virtualdub read ahead through the file to get 1 frame out (it's a one frame in, one frame out model)
DirectShow does let the codecs do that, so you don't get the same problem with media players, the directshow plugin etc
FFMpeg plugin does it internally, so you don't get the delay there either
