Hi - Its been a while since ive used media portal as I havent had a remote for the new Asrock - now i do - so i downloaded the latest media portal and installed it then rebooted and opened MP up and go to videos and select a video and with no exception every video can't play. They all work with GOM or MPC or VLC perfectly.
The error says it cant play XVID, AVC, DX50 depending on the file opened.
In MP settings > video i have 2 options - Microsoft DTV and MPC codecs. Neither work.
Obviously this is a codec issue so after some searching i found shark codec pack, CCCP and SAF. I downloaded them all but only installed shark - that failed to allow MP to play either.
Then I thought - to many codecs and uninstalled them and using codec sniper tried to remove broken codecs. Also I used Codec Tweak Tool and removed as many codecs that were broken as i could find.
I now have no codecs left apart from the direct x and gabest ones(from GOM???).
So I dont know what to do next.
Nothing will play and I dont want to make changes incase it makes it worse.
GOM, MPC, VLC still work though.
Cheers
