[QUOTE="Nyx77, post: 248478, member: 67698"] I figured out how to solve my problem. If I disable VC-1 decoding within ffdshow, the file plays fine. MP then uses the 'WMVideo Decoder DMO' instead of ffdshow. So it's clear it is an mediaportal problem, because if I let ffdshow decode VC-1 files, it shows just fine in bsplayer. The WMVideo Decoder DMO codec is not as good as ffdshow, because when you seek within the file the file looses audio for a few seconds and the video plays to fast. This gets back to normal pretty soon after the seekaction. I'd prefer to use ffdshow. Another peculiar thing is that Mediaportal does play other VC-1 files (or better; video files encoded with the VC-1 codec). For instance the file 'The.Air.I.Breathe.2007.Bluray.VC1.1080P.5.1.WMV-NOVO.wmv' plays just fine (with ffdshow as decoder). The conclusion of this complex story is that m2ts files with VC-1 codec do not play in mediaportal if you use ffdshow to decode them. I use MP 0.2.3.0 without any nightlybuilds, because the last ones were a true disaster, half of my files didn't even start (directshowfilter problems of some sort) [/QUOTE]
