[QUOTE="Srge2012, post: 880178, member: 126764"] Hi, I'm not sure whether this is the right place to post but I have just signed up and it seems that I cannot post anywhere else. I 'migrated' from Windows Media Center to MediaPortal a couple of weeks ago. At the same time I decided to store all my DVD collection in a brand new Seagate FREEAGENT GOFLEX DESK 3TB. So far so good. I installed MediaPortal and set it up to look for my movies in the new drive. I ripped the movies in their own folder under VIDEO_TS, so it looked something like: N:\Movies\12 Monkeys\VIDEO_TS. The problem I have is that when I try to play the movie from MediaPortal it freezes. However, if I play the movie using VideoLAN (still from the external Seagate drive), it works. The most bizarre thing is that if I copy the movie to my main hard drive or even another external drive then MediaPortal will play it with no problem. Does anyone have any idea on what is going on? All my drives are NTFS formatted and I'm using Windows 7 32bit. Any help will be much appreciated, Sergio [/QUOTE]
