Hi,

I've got the OEMPLATINUM version of the encoder at 1.02-185; when using the OEM update for 1.02-196 the codec appears to become unusable.

If I run MP and watch either TV/DVD that should be using PureVideo and then have a look using GraphEdit it shows the Nvidia Audio and Video Decoders are not being used - the intervideo and mpeg2dec ones are used instead.

The NVIDIA ones are shown at the bottom of the graph but aren't connected to anything.

I don't think this is an MP problem, but has anybody else had any problems updating their OEM version with the update kit?

Do they work in other applications (or if you try and connect them manually in graphedit)?
