Last days I was struggling to get my videos, TV-Series and Movies working. Every time I tried to play a file, Mediaportal told me that he wasn't able to play it. I received a notification like this: In the logs I couldn't find anyting. It was telling me that it was an unknown format (from MKV to MP4 etc.). I was working with LAV...

Yes to both questions, basically (although I usually use LAV codecs these days). I have good reception (and I use Freeview HD, not satellite) so I can't comment on how well it copes with really bad signals, but I don't remember reading any comments that it has problems in that situation. Note that the GT530 and GT630 are basically...

MP1 MP2 Poor EVR rendering DE
dshowhelper (and MP generally, AFAIK) doesn't know/doesn't care about admin rights etc. (but it looks like 'desktop composition' behaves differently - or the settings are different - for the 'non root' user, for some reason). Maybe it virtualises the displays in some way ?

I really hate reading a thread and there being no conclusion. So after a week I've had some time to troubleshoot this issue. First thing I did was throw away the case. The layout of the case had the hd sitting half over the chipset fan. I decided to get a timber board and mount everything to that giving the components room to...

Thanks for your advice Owlsroost. Few weeks ago I've activated the MyTV-series plug-in. Added a few tv-series and it worked all fine. Your advice it could be a plug-in causing this problem, triggered me to first of all disable the MyTV-Series plug-in. Guess what... all tv recordings play fine again after disabling this plug-in.

A bit more information I've discovered... I've tried every codec combination I can think of, higher priority on the TV Service, indexing and AV are off but still it stutters on HD TV (yet BluRay rips are fine) I recorded a few minutes from BBC HD this morning, and then closed down MP.

Try using default audio renderer and different video decoder (or mode from LAV). Logs didn't have any clues what could be going wrong, but 99% of hard crashes are sourced outside the MP.

MP1 MP2 Boomerang+1 issue.. DE
Anyone know why LAV video codec is struggling with Boomerang+1 channel (UK DVB-S) It seems to be the only channel LAV has issues with! It is as though the sound is on fast forward, and also looks like many frames are being dropped. If I use MS codec, then the channel plays fine - I prefer to use LAV if possible though, for Intel...

MP1 MP2 LAV vs ffdshow DE
You can also try LAV set to DXVA (copy back) as this is supposed to allow connection to post processing. Will increase cpu usage as data is 'is copied back' from GPU memory to CPU memory. ATI being more cpu intensive so than NV in this respect.

Problem solved - muppet network setup. I had configured a static IP address on the client PC with my router as the DNS server rather than my actual server. As I'm running in a domain, the server then assumed that the client was outside the domain, and blocked some (but not all) ports.

MP1 MP2 MPC-HC losing focus DE
Might be easier to just fix your codec problems that are preventing playback within mediaportal. I suggest uninstall all codecs / codec packs then use SAF, SAF installer is quite good, in that it might remove some of the codecs that you may have missed.
