Default Video, visualizations

Hi,

I have used MP a long time ago, recently tried it again and I have to say I'm really surprised at how much it has improved (amazed actually). So now I'm considering using it, but I have some questions:

1- is it possible to have two 'my videos'? here is my problem, I have one folder with movies and another with general video content (sports, tv series, etc). when I last used MP you had to put both on the same my videos section, which is not really convenient, because I want to see just movies on one place and everything else categorized by folders on 'my other videos' section (one folder with tv series, subfolders with the series name, subfolder with seasons. one folder for sport videos, subfolder for the specific sport, etc). is this possible?

2- I use the folder navigation for my music, if I place one folder with videos (where my music is), can the music player play them? if I have one playlist with music and videos, does the music player show visualizations for the music and the video when it reached the avi file?

3- is it possible to go full screen with the visualization? this is probably a silly question but I didnt find out how...

4- and last, is it possible to pass the ac3 sound on divx movies so that my logitech z680 speakers play everything in stereo (music, non ac3 encoded movies) and ac3 sound on some movies I have encoded with it?

I think thats all...thanks in advance to anyone who can answer any (or all ;-) of these questions.

Hi there, it is a pretty amazing pice of software, in answer in part to number 2, i watch music videos which i have saved alongside music files. You need to add the movie file extension to music file extensions in the MP setup program. As for the my videos it's fairly straight forward to just add different folders under the movies folders section of the setup program.

Cheers
