    Hi there,

    After building and installing SVN 27686 I had problem playing any video file.
    Error is:
    VideoPlayer9: Exception while creating DShow graph Unable to load DLL 'dshowhelper.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) at MediaPortal.Player.VMR9Util.EvrInit(IVMR9PresentCallback callback, UInt32 dwD3DDevice, IBaseFilter vmr9Filter, UInt32 monitor)

    Logs are attached.

    I found a very similar issue in the forum (that was suppose to be fixed in SVN):
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-1-2-0-alpha-536/dshowhelper-evr-renderer-windows-7-x64-nvidia-broken-svn-26907-a-91109/
    I've tried Owlsroost's test dshowhelper.dll from post #8 and it worked for me. (working logs attached too)

    Thanks,:D

    One more thing:
    Before installing this build, I've tested it inside VMWare on the same PC, and same OS and it worked just fine. (Hardware obviously is not the same within the VM). So maybe it's related to hardware (nvidia?)

    Thanks Mark, that was it. Forgot to install it...
    Also explains why my VM worked, since this is my MediaPortal "builder" :)
