    I had issues with this too until trying the DivX codec. Shouldn't the monogram aac decoder cope with this? I just get mostly silence and a few seconds of audio garbage.

    Hi Caesium

    It is an more likely an issue with MP's AAC support. We need to make some improvements to add support for a wider range of codecs and get better compatibility with streams like those available from Freeview UK. You can track this issue -->here<--. Unfortunately it is "not planned yet" as the people that have the skills to do the improvements are always busy.

    I did look at this and AIUI the type of AAC being used (HE LATM v2) is not supported via monogram. As mm says the support for AAC in MP is not great but the mainconcept and divx codecs definitely work

    Thank you for confirming that U&W works for you. I ended up deleting U&W and rescanning for channels. That fixed the issue.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    I made some updates to the Wiki page describing the <import> and <include> tags, including adding a couple of new xml examples. For the first example, I highlighted the example text and eventually found the location in the menus where I could select the CODE macro to have the example text formatted as a code example. So far, so good...

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
