Unable to play recorded TV (1 Viewer)

[miz_gbg]

Just faced another problem, when I click on any of my recorded TV programs, I get the message "Unable to play:xxxx.ts Audio coded:" (Nothing appears after Audio codec?).

Since I'm a newbie, where should I start looking?

Me Too! Newbie and same error!

First, thank you to all that have done such superb work on creating an alterative to VMC. I have been a Windows Media Center user for four years now. I have an 8 TB RAID 5 system that hosts all my media but VMC is simply not flexible enough to do everything I need. Moreover, MediaPortal ROCKS WITH COOLNESS!

So, back to my MediaPortal problem. Have installed MediaPortal 1.1 Alpha on top of Vista Ultimate 32bit Service Pack 2. I have a network directory loaded with 500+ VMC "RecordedTV" files which I wish to playback on MediaPortal. When I navigate to that folder my icons populate with half a picture and the other half blank white. Next, when I select a file for play I get the same Audio Codec error that the previous poster mentioned...following the error MediaPortal crashes.

Interestingly, if I take the very same file that crashed MediaPortal to a local store (i.e. Flash Drive), it plays great within MediaPortal. Strange behaviour??? Please help!

Thanks!

Oh, I forgot to mention that XBMC has no problem playing my 500+ VMC "RecordedTV" (DVR-MS) files from the network shares.

Thanks!
