I suppose it only took me a few minutes to realize that Media Portal is far superior to WMCE.

The only problem that I cant figure out is that the h.264 / .mkv playback displays the wrong color. Instead of a pinkish color, all the skin tones are blue. Im basically in Smurf Theater Mode.

Im using Haali Media Splitter as the codec, not sure what to do.

AMD64 X2 - 1GIG Ram - ASUS M2NPV-VM - NVIDIA GeForce 6150 via DVI.

    Any Solution for this?

    Have the same problem (only .mkv files) Did you find a solution for this?

    Using internal player, files play fine in MP10, so it's only when using MP I get this. Now using latest SVN, but have had it since I installed 0.2.3.0 RC1

    got the same problem. Hardware is a MSI K9NGM2 GeForce 6150 via DVI. I can play .ts files without problem - i can play timeshift files without problem. But live TV shows wrong color.
    Any idea?
    Im using latest SVN for MP and TVserver.

    I had the same problem. Video played with blue skin (also the 6150 gpu), and actually the following attempt to play any mkv failed. I think it was a problem with the video driver. After I updated my nvidia video driver mkv played properly.

    I cant play mkv´s at all.
    In the video-option it says that .mkv is supportet, but under the mkv-codec its blank. I cant choose any.
    Hvad mkv-codec do I have to use? and where do I install it?

    .mkv is a container and may contain various video and audio files. Often its HD rips with x-264 video and ac3 sound tho.

    ffdshow should be able to decode that. checkout the tryouts version.
