[QUOTE="martyyn, post: 610933, member: 16047"] Has anyone had any success with RC2 ? I broke the golden rule of 'if it aint broke dont fix it' recently going from a working 1.0.2 install to RC2. The reason for the change was I got some VC-1 HD content which I couldnt get to play with my 1.0.2 install (Im using CoreAVC, just because I always have) and initial reading of the SAF4.0 codec pack thread gave me the impression it would sort it out for me. Unfortunately Ive had nothing but trouble and Im now in codec hell not being able to get back to a system capable of just playing all the basic (tv and movies I mean). I got caught up in the initial 'upgrade' issues, so used the 'clean uninstall' option which told me it would remove everything but Im not convinced. After spending several hours trying to get it working, and many more reading thread after thread Ive gone back to a 1.0.2 install (again after a clean uninstall) to find all my settings are still there ! Ive tried various methods of removing codecs but as with the MP un-install Im not convinced Ive removed all of them each time. Anyway, before I give in completely and buy W7 to use 7MC, can someone at least say they have it all going with no problems to convince me it is possible. So thats all our tv content and movies in all sorts of formats etc. Im thinking of trying again with a new drive having a fresh install of XP SP3 on it and starting from scratch. From what Ive read I should be able to get everything going with the following....RC2, the latest StreamedMP skin, Moving Pictures and TV Series plugins, PDVD9 from HDPACK2.3 and SAF5.0, so if someone can confirm that at least I would be grateful :) Cheers [/QUOTE]
