Hello all, I am a new user to the Media Portal community, and so far, I like the way it looks, but haven't been able to get it to work!
I ripped a couple of DVD's to my HDD, and then tried to play them in MP. I can navigate to the files just fine in the My Videos section, but when I try to play them, the screen goes black, and the ticker stays at 0:00. I ripped one DVD as a file (just IFO's) and one as a .vob with ifo's. Neither works. When I load them in Power DVD, however, they both play perfectly.
I tried loading Power DVD's decoders into MP's configuration, but it made no difference. I also tried to set Power DVD up as an external player, but it looked like it was still the internal MP player?
Here's my setup:
AMD 2800+
768 MB RAM
HDD 0 - 40 GB (System)
HDD 1 - 80 GB (Storage)
OPT 0 - DVD Reader
OPT 1 - CDRW
ATI Radeon 7000
Windows XP Home
