[QUOTE="hobb, post: 216304, member: 24510"] The original problem as I understand is that nothing at all happens when you try to play a file from the playlist. In my case when I "click" on a movie in the file list nothing at all happens visually but I can tell that MP freezes for about a second since I cant navigate to another film for that short period of time. In my case this happens for most of my .mkv videos and (all?) .ogm videos. Some people suggests that it is related to ac3 sound stream. Others think it is related to embedded subtitles. I have to do some more testing but for now I personally would suspect the subtitles. It is obviously some property or combination of properties of the affected movies that causes problems since only a subset of the movies fail to play. Since I use the same PowerDVD cyberlink h.264 decoder for HDTV playback succesfully in MP I can rule the video decoder out. The important thing here is that the problem seem to start when people upgrade to MP 0.2.3.0 + recent snapshot and that it is not a codec / configuration problem since most people report that they can play the files in other players like MPC, GSpot etc using the same codec setup. The conclusion is that something has changed in MP that breaks an otherwise working codec configuration. I think the following thread relates to the same problem: [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my_video_wont_play_h264-t31931.html"]h.264 / mkv problem[/URL] [/QUOTE]
