[QUOTE="Tallone, post: 725586, member: 25514"] Don't use VLC to check what will play 'outside of MP' on your PC. VLC uses its own, built in, codecs that no other program can use, so yes it can play everything. Try opening the files in Windows Media Player, as this uses the same DirectShow filters as MP. If files aren't playing in WMP, you'll need to install some codecs.
