    Sure... you can elect to use any external player instead of the built-in 'gplayer' although I think it may be an across the board option meaning not for just one type of media. Use the MP-config and see for yourself. Or you could simply play PowerDVD on the occasion you want to show-off your VCD and use MP for everything else!

    You can extract the mpg files with VCDGear. Then you have no problems playing this files within MP.

    Every video editing program like virtualdub, projectx should be able to save a picture from the mpg file. What happend when you play this mpg file in video section?

    I don't think so, because MP has no way of knowing at which timestamp the external player stopped playback. Best way to achieve this would be to use an auto-resume feature in your external player itself. (MPC-HC can do that, I don't know about VLC)

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    I noticed there's an updated Visual C++ Runtime (14.50.35710), maybe try to reinstall the runtimes? That's what fixed the issue when I tried 1.38.1

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK
