Success! Sort of...
I installed WinXP SP3, .net3.5, PDVD8 and MP 1.0 RC4 (and dependencies like WMP11), and could play unencrypted .m2ts in PDVD and WMP perfectly.
Added .m2ts to extension types and could launch from MP! Was getting a message though prior to running, and pressing ok closes it and the movie seems to play fine with audio and video in sync (with no need to skip the first frame). The window is labelled "Mkx" and the error is: "A decoder for the new track could not be found".
The 'track type' section of the box is empty though. I see other posts about a similar error (other file types, or with the 'track type' suggesting subtitles), but have not yet found anyone who's solved the issue (without converting the file to another format).
Is this the same error you were getting in your original post?
I uninstalled Haali and no more error - but no ability to play .m2ts... I find this really strange, as the player settings in MP are all set to use PDVD codecs (but not as an external player) so surely the existence of Haali is totally irrelevant?
