[QUOTE="MLH01, post: 423714, member: 89532"] OK as promised, the following are my codec settings. Note that I tried 2 different settings, both with success in video, TV and DVD playback - all SD as I only have an old CRT TV. Setting 1 (for video, TV and DVD): Audio codec = MPC - MPA Video codec = MPC - MPEG2 (Gabest) Setting 2 (for video, TV and DVD): Audio codec = ffdshow Video codec = ffdshow I think the bottom line with codecs is to use the same codecs for audio and video where possible, and to avoid installing too many different codec packs that may cause graph generation issues. If you have used filmerit and it shows no issues, then you should be fine. One thing to watch out for though is that the ATI Catalyst drivers (including the latest 9.5) seem to have issues with the Cyberlink PowerDVD8 codecs for HD (Blu-ray) content. The 9.5 version has resolved progressive VC1 video content issues though. See the [URL=http://www2.ati.com/relnotes/Catalyst_95_release_notes.pdf]ATI Catalyst 9.5 release notes[/URL] for more information. Other driver version release notes can be viewed on their site. Just change the 95 in the link to the version you want to look at, leaving out the dot in the version number. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
