No video (1 Viewer)

Hello,

First off, I'm sorry for not using the standard reporting form as Media Portal Test Tool crashes on me upon startup with the following .NET slant:

Anyway, Media Portal works pretty damn well on my machine, it plays mp3's, shows images, weather reports, sudoku and whatever, but I can't make it display ANY video - be it DVD, or .avi on the hard disk. I have no TV cards in the system as of now.
There's no error message when trying to play video - the remote / mouse /keyboard click on the video icon is just ignored.

At a video play attempt, following message goes to the logfile:

My system is a VIA EPIA CN10000G box with all the latest drivers, DirectX and .NET runtimes. I have tested MP 0.2.2 and nightly builds - with the same results.

Please let me know if you need more details - I'd appreciate your help.

Hi,
Can you attach full MediaPortal.log to your post when this error occurs?
Could be something related to soundcard.
Do you have all updates from windows update?
