Re: ffdshow (codec) config question

The sliders aren't grayed out but if I try to adjust something like the brightness, I can use the slider but it doesn't affect anything and as soon as I release the mouse button, it just snaps back to the original setting. These movies all played fine with the codecs I had prior to installing 1Click DVD Movie so here's the question. How can I disable ffdshow and just use the codecs I had before that? There is a configuration settings screen I can get to in the All Programs menu for ffdshow, but I have no clue as to how to make it not be associated with my avi files. All the options are pretty cryptic. And if I do disassociate it with my files, will 1Click DVD movie still be able to use it if it needs it?
Help!

Have you try to right click on anywhere on the screen?
