    Rekenaar will on your case: no system specs or details on how you are playing back the media files :p

    Seriously, if you expect help, please follow the basics. OK. now, that's out of the way. I will assume you have followed the install requirements ie. if you are using SPDif for AV receiver encoding, you have checked the AC3 & DTS boxes in the output section of ffdshow config.

    To confirm you don't have a codec issue do this:

    1) Open MP config>General & deselect start in fullscreen & OK out
    2) go to start>***>SAF4.00>tools>graphstudio
    3) start MP & load a media file you are having issues with
    4) in graphstudio, go to file>connect to remote graph. Highlight the only connection in the box & click connect

    This will bring up your video & audio codecs & renderers being used. Does anything look out of order.

    If you're not sure, do this:

    5) click new to clear codecs. Go to file>render media file. Browse to the same media file & click open

    Once codecs are loaded, can you play the file within graphstudio? If so, then the issue is usually localised inside MP. If not, then you have codec issues that need sorting.

    Start with this.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    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...

    Default Direct Sound Device was the problem. MPAR worked better than Dircect Sound, but is still a problem. Changed Audio Renderer to use the TV and it's working.
