[QUOTE="Solitar, post: 1156894, member: 96035"] Thanks Lehmden, good answer there. I know obviously one option is "if it aint broke, dont try and fix it" - and I've always been over the moon with my current setup (as you can guess, been running it a while from the fact it's the old 1.2.3.0 Regarding the built in video decoding capabilities, I'd installed a codec pack from way back when it was suggested to use the MPC-HD video renderer since there were some glitches at the time that 1.2.3.0 was released with ATi gfx cards and this was a workaround to fix that. If I dont install any codecs to a clean build PC, will it still handle mp4, mkv, avi, vob etc (the usual pick n mix of codecs)? One feature I've really been after for the longest time, and unsure it that's available in MP2 is the ability to play an audio playlist/album whatever, but then run a separate video at the same time - sounds weird, but I have a few very long videos of things like a real fireplace, or fish swimming in the ocean - very relaxing [/QUOTE]
