[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1066297, member: 82144"] Okay, so your CPU is not powerful enough to do video decoding - no problem. :) Preview automatically selects the codecs with the highest merit (priority). It doesn't use the MediaPortal configuration. So, preview is probably selecting incompatible or non-hardware-accelerated codecs. You can fix this by adjusting codec merits with Filmerit if you really want to: [url]http://paul.glagla.free.fr/filmerit_en.htm[/url] ...however personally I wouldn't bother.
