[QUOTE="L00pback, post: 787352, member: 115405"] Couldn't get it to work but found that if I use MCEBuddy to convert the files to .avi then MP would play them fine. Not the best solution, but its a solution. MCEBuddy (liking what it can do) is now going through a lot of programs converting away. My impressions of MP compared to Windows Media Center is that it can do a lot more, look a lot nicer and allows much more control over how things work but the price you pay is that it takes time to get setup just the way you like it and it can bite you with little "issues" like I had that a lot of other users don't. Thankfully the excellent forum can help resolve or work around these little quirks. Overall, very, very impressed with MP and wish I'd found it earlier. Big thanks to everyone that has made MP possible. Only thing left for me to do is to overcome my addiction to tweaking and playing with all the settings - I just can't help but modify things to try and get the best picture quality and functionality out of MP. :D I've not given up on resolving my dvr-ms issues and if I ever find a solution I'll post back here.
