Just a general question to everyone. What is the best codecs to select in MediaPortal after installing SAF 6.

The majority of my viewing is avi (Xvid), mkv, TV & Recorded TV.

Cheers,

Sam.

    If you have an nvidia graphics card, CoreAVC is a great h264 video decoder.. not free tho.
    Windows7 has a great mpeg2 video decoder(dvd, australian tv uses mpeg2 also) - comes with win7 and not before.
