[QUOTE="Digsy, post: 1306232, member: 163222"] Hi all, I've recently retired my MP2 setup for my main HTPC and gone back to separates, but I wanted to retain the ability to play my media on my bedroom setup, which used to be client #2. After finding that I could not upgrade from a client only install, I decided to completely remove MP2 and all of its sub components (Dokan, LAV filters, .net etc) and do a completely fresh install of V2.5 (I was running 2.2.3 before - old yes, but it was stable). The 2.5 install went well but It failed to import more than a handful of my media library despite being left running for 24 hours. I had by now decided that I didn't like the new user interface anyway, so I uninstalled and re installed 2.2.3 to go back to what I knew and liked. This didn't exactly go smoothly as I got repeated "insufficient privileges to start service" errors (remember I had installed MP2 on this machine before and apart from the uninstall I had not changed anything). In the end I uninstalled again and removed the database files. The next install [I]seemed[/I] to go well so I started re-importing my library. All went fine until I tried playing a ripped DVD (vob format). No sound. I had sound for playing audio files and also the vob files would play in VLC, so this must be an issue specific to the way the video player is handling audio. It was then that I noticed that the LAV filters had not re-installed. Odd, as I thought this was part or the MP2 install. I went to the LAV website and installed the latest version but still no luck. I do recall that previously on this machine I had many different audio and video codecs to choose from. Now I only seem to have the Microsoft one. For information my bedroom HTPC only has stereo sound via the 3.5mm speaker jack. Anyone got any ideas what has gone wrong here? [/QUOTE]
