I'm gonna try it as soon as I get home from works.

If it works correctly, I will fix the skin voor Aeon Wide for this plugin

The plugin is not done yet. You may want to hold out on that for now.

I had a look at your logfiles and cut out the relevant parts:

It seems that in XP the ffdshow filters take care of the videostream and not QT lite. Maybe you can try to deinstall/deactivate ffdshow in your XP system and see if video playback still works.
Furthermore you can use graphedit on your Vista system to check if Vista is able to build a working graph for the mov files. With graphedit you can also check if your Vista system is able to playback mov files with the current graph.

Those Vista logs with the pins not connected error are the same as mine, but I'm running XP SP3 with all latest XP updates on both my PCs. My HTPC has K-lite codec pack, QT alternative installed and no other software apart from MP of course (very clean install). Graphedit is unable to play .mov streams on my PCs. When I play a local .mov graphedit uses ffdshow MP4 for video and Nero QT for audio (I think this is QT Alternative for audio). File played ok in graphedit. I disabled ffdshow codec and then graphedit used AVI decompressor for the video and Nero QT for audio. File played ok in graphedit. When I disabled AVI decompressor it could not find a suitable video codec despite Nero QT Video codec being listed under my codecs (again QT alternative I think). So I don't think QT lite video codec is being used at all?

Please note that when I play .mov streams or local .mov files in Media Player Classic it works fine on both PCs. This is definitely something to do with how MP is handling things. I think Media Player Classic is using ffdshow codecs, successfully.

Hmmmm.....

Same thing for me only that my issue is with Vista XP Sp3 is working(i'm using vista codec pack).Same as you graph edit it's not able to pick the right filters but when i create a custom graph is working.I've did some test on my XP Sp3 and after i changed the merit of FFDshow to lower priority movie trailers no longer worked(MP is picking cyberlink instead of FFDshow but all i get is a black screen).I will do some more test before i give up

@ those who have streaming problem:

Can you play local .mov files within MP selected from My Video?

 

[digitalfm]

Good point, no I can't. I just get a black screen. Although the same file plays fine in Windows.

For some testing I also installed MP on my homeoffice system with XP SP2. On this system I have the same problem as sleepycol and Pretoriano. On the HTPC everything still works fine.

On the XP system Local mov files work without a problem, Movie Trailers just shows a black screen.

I used graphedit to compare the graphs of my htpc and the homeoffice system. Under XP graphedit builds a graph with ffdshow filters and although graphedit is able to play the mov file, Movie Trailes isn't. On my HTPC graphedit isn't able to build a graph because of some missing filters, but Movie Trailers works without problems.

armandp
In the mediaportal logfile I saw a function of Movie Trailers called g_Player.PlayVideoStream, the internal videplayer of MP uses g_Player.Play which seems to use a build-in graph.
Is it possible to implement a graph in Movie Trailers? This should fix most of the playback problems, I guess.

Please note that when I play .mov streams or local .mov files in Media Player Classic it works fine on both PCs. This is definitely something to do with how MP is handling things. I think Media Player Classic is using ffdshow codecs, successfully.

Hmmmm.....

MPC uses its own graphs, I think if armandp is able to implement a graph for mov files into his Movie Trailers plugin, the playback problems should be gone.

 

[armandp]

Also have we tried with the checkbox "Automatic Decoder Settings" enabled (under the Movie codec configuration) ? I know that isn't a solution but it will help me push in the right direction

@ those who have streaming problem:

Just to confirm again ;0) - yes, local .mov files will play ok in MP. Also, local AND streaming .mov files play in media player classic (MPC). Although thats because MPC uses its own graphs according to JayDox (see below)

Yeah, I tried that too and it doesn't seem to affect anything regarding this issue :0(

I think you are on to something with the ".play" function. Also, with the idea to create a graph using My Trailers. Might be worth a try? :0)

 

[armandp]

PlayStream resolves to Play eventually so imho this won't make a difference. It first tries to build a graph using the known configuration as supplied by the Movie Player codec configuration if it can't find a match it will fallback to a "simulated" graph based on the directshow merits (this logic is describes with comments in the source of the VMR7/9 player classes). If i want to use my own graph i'm afraid i have to build my own player (based on vmr9 and overriding the parts where the graph gets build) - this would be very challenging, for me, because as i told earlier this is one of the first times i played around with directshow. I wil take on the challenge tw but I want to also invest some time in improving the overall. plugin

Just to confirm again ;0) - yes, local .mov files will play ok in MP. Also, local AND streaming .mov files play in media player classic (MPC). Although thats because MPC uses its own graphs according to JayDox (see below)

Hmm.. so if local .mov files play in MP that would mean i can implement a Download & Play option for you in the plugin at least (was already working on this btw). Ok this would not be streaming but it would allow you to view the trailers Maybe it evens helps me to understand the differences in how it handles a streaming .mov.
