 implements natively are grouped in one section.
 
+The "guid" you retrieve from graphedit or the registry will have to be changed.
+e.g. "30355649-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71" will change to the example below.

+If you label a codec as "buggy" please detail the problem in a comment field.

+Also, when adding a win32 codec, please try all the colorspaces, not only
+the one which works first. It's a performance and/or quality issue.
+Most codecs use yuv internally, and support at least one yuv format too.
+
+If the codec is vfw format, try vfwex first, and fallback to vfw only if it
+doesn't work. (vfwex is a newer version of the vfw api used in modern codecs).
