[QUOTE="tranquil, post: 408999, member: 82685"] see my last post, i found out (that's my best guess) that after restoring my files from an HDD using "Recover my files" some of the files were corrupted, thus weren't been able to play. i came to this conclusion after seeing 2 similar files (codecs the sames) 1 works and the other not. you probably ask then, why other players play it? (zoom/vlc/km) that's because some players are more tolerant for errors in the video. and MP (wmp) is NOT. my suggestion to the MP team was (if it's possible) to give out a different error msg if the file can't be read because of corruption not not codec problems.
