Mediaportal always worked fine. I had to reinstall windows XP then all the drivers and the codecs (k-lite codec pack), as before.
Windows Media Player and Media Player Classics can read .avi, .mov, .mpg etc. movies as well as DVD. Mediaportal cannot anymore. When I try to any video with MP, it shows "Unable to play xxx"
So to try to solve the problem I:
- update video card drivers (ATI)
- downgraded MP version (1.0)
- changed type of codec in MP configuration (both standard MPV/MPA and ffdshow)
but nothing changed.
I don't want to use external player (that anyway works) but I want to use MP internal player.

Where can I further investigate this problem? I tried everything but no success. Anyone good can help me?
Thanks!!

Do you know which driver of your Video Card worked correctly before this reinstall?

 

[Alcy]

It was the driver installed by Windows XP installation CD. I also upgrade to the most recent version, but no fortune...

None can help? This problem is amazing. Reinstalled everythings: WinXP, drivers, codecs but Mediaportal doesn't read movies even if Windows Media Player can. How is it possible?

Might be worth a look, not sure whether any changes that have been made to MP over the last 6 months may also stop your graphics from working correctly, 9250 is not a DX9 graphics card, always has been hit or miss whether these work or not

I finally found myself!
It was just to set on configuration "Video renderer" the "EVR" instead of "VMR9". I dont know what is that, but now MP can play both videos and DVDs...
Anyone knows why?
Thanks Miranda and Paranoid Delusion who tried to help me.
