Hi There,

I have been a Media Portal user for some time.

I have just purchased a new PC and have done a fresh install of Media Portal.

When I play a video file of any format *.avi *.mp2 *.mpeg *.vob the internal player does not play it.
When I nominate an external player all my video play within Media Portal.

I have attcahed the error log below. Has anyone had a similar issue?

Thanks in advance,

Hi there and welcome

A few suggestions to try:
Use Filmerit to see if there are codec problems on your PC.
Try SAF - it claims to "be able to play almost all standart videofiles+DVD's."

Please report back with your progress.

Thanks rekenaar - Ufortunatly this didn't turn anything up. I have also anstalled SAF without anyluck.
Would you have any other ideas?

Next option is to attach full logs and update your system details (see my signiture) and wait for someone to assist.

Hey Rekenaar,

Turns out I was using the onboard video card. I installed a good quality video card and away she went.
Now plays everything

Thanks!
