    Hi.
    Try to disable WMV completely in LAVF Settings. Splitter, Video and Audio Part. WMV is a native Windows format that plays best if you leave the system as it is...
    BTW Testing such files in VLC did not make much sense as VLC did not use Windows DS system to playback video files...Better to use Windows media Player or GraphStudio or something like that. VLC is good for seeing if the file is playable at all, but everything else you can not test with VLC...

    I'm getting exactly the same error on wmv files since i installed 1.3b. Tried fiddling with the LAV settings suggested but nothing helps. I can play the same files without problems with WMP and i'm pretty sure 1.2.3 worked fine too.

    Can anyone help out?

    I had similar problem playing WMV under 1.3, don't think it happened with 1.2.3 - I think it was unticking Source Splitter Selection in Video Codecs that fixed it for me, may be worth a try.

    Thanks for the response. No change. No MP2 in APPs (the Win 11 version of Programs) There was an empty MP2-Server folder under Team Media Portal in PF X86. The net 4 version, as I indicated, is the one I installed. Or tried to. For completeness, I deleted the (empty) folder & the Team Media Portal folder (otherwise empty), and...

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
