[QUOTE="Xetick, post: 51738, member: 20382"] Using something like Mediaplayer classic wouldn't solve the problem. It still uses codecs that are complicated to understand and can mess up you computer. The reason I suggest mplayer is that all you need is your mplayer directory on any computer and you have what you need to play all formats. No registry tweeking, no strange ordering issues of what to use for specific formats. Mplayer hasn't won all linux awards for nothing. It would be nice to put all that knowledge and hard work to good use in mediaportal also. Just to put mediportal further ahead of all the others when it comes to usability and ease of use. You can probably use mplayer just fine as an external exe file. That would be the prefered way because then we could easily use any newer version of mplayer when they came out. Also the mediaportal developers wouldn't need to bother with it as much. Joakim [/QUOTE]
