[QUOTE="RichyF, post: 150041, member: 50710"] Hi Guys I have been playing with my new MP system over the last few days and am very impressed with it. Its my first touch of any such system so am still getting used to the concepts etc. I am not as yet using any TV functionality, just using it as a player. I have a few questions if thats ok: I have so far been playing xvid movies fine and everything has been cool, however one or two of my latest files are mkv files (h264). These play fine via vlc but i was wondering if i can get them to just play via the mp interface as they are sat next to the other movies in the "My Movies" section. I have enabled the vlc plugin but when i click "configure" on it nothing happens. Have i done something wrong? My Music, I have copied a boat load of my mp3 files over the the machine, it all plays very well but i was wondering if i can have visualizations from winamp or mediacenter on it? Is it also possible to add radio stations that are available in winamp to the "My Radio" section? Or some of the online bbc ones for example. I would like to be able to "RIP" my dvd's to the hdd when i put them in to play, is this possible (In a similar way to itunes does with music?). Also is it possble to burn MP3 / Xvids to dvd / cd from the MP interface? Sorry if im asking common questions ive had a look through the forums and not really been able to find the answers myself (although they seem very basic). I plan to have a main machine downstairs and use a tv card to connect to my pace telewest box (really old one). Then have a small machine upstairs (or an xbox). So far im extremely impressed :) GJ Guys [/QUOTE]
