Source Loading Options

Apply modified Source
options to similar
Sources

Enable this option to use modified source options on subsequent
source files. With this option enabled, subsequent sources of
similar types will be loaded with the same source parameters as
the previous source of the same file type. This is useful for Watch
folders because it allows source files to be adjusted automatically
without the need for the user to interact with the software.
For example, let’s say you have an AVI file that does not have
square pixels and you set it so the pixel aspect ratio isn’t square (i.e.
DV NTSC). If Apply modified Source options to similar Sources
is enabled, the next AVI source file you load will retain the same
settings used before, and will loads the file with the pixel aspect
ratio set to DV NTSC, instead of the default setting.

Force internal
DirectShow MPEG
Decoder

Enable this option to use internal DirectShow MPEG Decoder to
load source file.
