Sorry but it is ffdshow post-processing I was talking about. Not FFDshow as decoder. You are so wrong in suggesting someone would use ffdshow as decoder in windows where LAVFilter is available.
The setup I meant was using EVR as renderer where MadVR is unavailable (In this case XBMC DSplayer for past years), LAV Filters as decoder, FFDShow do the post-processing (Shaders,Resize, NR,Sharpen etc.) would yield a very good result and not that much different someone like you suggest. Also I'm using MPC-HC LAV filters & FFDshow with MadVR + Xysubfilter now on my PC, so I knew my stuff. Using best software available is only half of achieving best playback experience.
Also FFDShow profiles is something you probably wouldn't want to live without.
Search by google, you would find lot of discussion using these setup.
This is a very good start point.
