    Disable the channel if it annoys you.

    We used to get crashes of MP with this condition, would rather have something saying no signal, than just nothing showing, in fact the Dev's are trying to give more exact information why something is not responding\working for end users to be more informed of why things have gone wrong, this may help fix things both locally if configuration of htpc is incorrect, but also show exactly why MP failed to work correctly to end user, who then may be able to figure out why their config of htpc\server\MP is failing.

    Regards

If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    Thank you for confirming that U&W works for you. I ended up deleting U&W and rescanning for channels. That fixed the issue.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK
