Same problem here! It's very frustrating!

I have klite codec pack installed. I have tried to reinstall media portal, but no success either... I can't understande why some files with the exactly same codecs info by Gspot play fine and other don't!

Can anyone help please?

    is koepi's xvid installed, even in ffdshows video setting i have xvid set as the codec for the above formats.

    If you want system wide support, then uninstall any codecs and install the Vista codec pack (ignore name), you may have to change under avi setting to use gabest splitter, this either means you have corrupt files or your MS splitter is foobar.

    Finally the solution (at least for me):

    That fixed the problem. I just manually installed VC_redist.x64.exe and reinstalled 1.32 64-bit. Thanks for that. A couple of things; the deployment tool for 1.32 doesn't remove the previous version when you're updating from 1.31 to 1.32 and "MediaPortal TV Server" gets installed even when you choose to install the client only. I...

    This may or may not be a pause, after all, this is a playlist, it can constantly change, I don’t very well understand the mechanism of working with playlists in online broadcasts. Well, here you need to look at what is happening in the Media Portal player. And find someone who understands how it works.

    Hi, First off: there are some issues with the latest Mediaportal (32bits vs 64bits), so that is one of the issues you're stumbling with. If you take the previous version (1.31) it should work as expected. For IPTV there is also a different option (with different pros and cons): Onlinevideos. I'm using that sometimes for my IPTV as...

    Thanks again for all the help. I deleted 'BDHandler.dll" from the process folder, and as expected, it no longer appears in the MePo configuration utility. I also downloaded the X86 BDReader plugin that you posted. Renamed the existing files in the MePo folder, and copied the updated files to the MePo folder. For the most part...
