Is it possible to isolate SonicStage decoder?
#4
No. I was wrong. I mean I was right :-D

.ax files turned out to be just DirectShow filters while real decoders
are somewhere in Common Files\Sony Shared\OpenMG.

When I uninstalled SonicStage the piece of crap actually totally remained in my system.
It appears uninstaller just unregistered files from system. So that's why regsvr32 trick
actually worked: the files were still there.

Then I tried removing stuff by portions and every time jpcsp tries to decode now, an
installer pops in, OpenMG Secure Module or something like that. Narrowed it down to
pfcom.dll but removing it just causes decoding to fail.
Tried reinstalling SonicStage to start over and the fucking crap
couldn't even install itself for the second time. And this is after uninstalling
it natively through Add/Remove.

After glancing on all this bloat SonicStage installs, I might add it is so full of bullshit,
I will rather wait for ffmpeg / libavcodec OSS decoder.
