[QUOTE="lloydsmart, post: 401924, member: 87046"] Hi. I'm finally working through some of my last remaining problems with Mediaportal, and I feel like I'm almost done, because everything actually does at least play now. My current problem is that Mediaportal (and indeed other directshow players like WMP and Graphedit) will insist on using the Microsoft DTV-DVD codec to decode video, even though I have MPC installed as part of the Shark007 Win7Codecs package, and have it set to a higher merit (00800000 as opposed to 005FFFFF for the Microsoft one). When I use graph edit, I get this: [IMG]http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/lloydsmart/graph1.png[/IMG] I can easily change it within Graphedit to this: [IMG]http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss63/lloydsmart/graph2.png[/IMG] and it plays perfectly, but of course that's not the default behaviour, so it doesn't happen in Mediaportal or any other program. I have set video playback to MPC in Mediaportal Configuration, too, so I don't know what's wrong. Is there any way to disable the Microsoft filters? Filemerit won't even let me edit their merits, is there any way to delete them completely from Windows 7? I'm on build 7068, x64 if that makes any difference.
