Whenever I hit play on any video file from moving pictures Mediaportal locks up and I have to end the task to get back out of it. I have attached the log files, not sure if you need anything else. Thank You

    Since this seems to be caused by MovingPictures, you should report it to the MovingPictures developers.

    If it did the same in My Videos, then that would indicate a more general problem.

    Edit: I had a look at your logs, and it really does just hang. There is nothing to indicate that MP even tries to start playing the file.

    I tried again directly from videos and had the same thing happen. Attaching log files from the latest test.

    I don't see anything in the logs to indicate that you have started to play a video file. Try turning off thumbnail generation and see if this helps.

    Alternatively, try waiting longer for it to respond. Obviously I don't know how long you have waited so far.

    I waited multiple minutes for each test. It just seems to hang there and not do anything, but I am unable to even move the mouse and thus it is locked after I hit play. When I do CTL-ALT-DEL it says mediaportal is not responding.

    What codecs have you got for video playback, are they trying to play using dxva, format of files also makes a difference.

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    OK....perhaps impatient of me I know, but went for a full reinstall....and now up and running once more. Have no idea what was at the root of this problem....still wondering if it may've been due to a Win11 update earlier this week?

    maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?
