Hi guys,

All of a sudden I am getting an "Unable to play video file error: xxx codec" upon playing movies and sometimes series.
It is somewhat random (will always happen on a particular movie file) - it was happening on a series but then that inexplicably started working.

The error insinuates it is a dshow filter problem but its the same codes as everything else - the video one is just XVID with AC3 sound, and I'm using ffdshow to decode both.

The error trace from the log is below.
FYI the files launch fine in MPC-HC, using the same decoders.

The only thing that I can say has changed is I upgraded my FlexRAID software on my file server box (I am streaming off my network). But this hasn't changed how it is serving up files through the network (typical windows share, smb), as well as the fact that MPC-HC renders the graph fine.

Any ideas?
