Unable to play videos (1 Viewer)

[porky996t]

Hi,

I upgraded to 1.1.0 RC1 and set up everything this morning. TV works great etc, and transferred over all the old databases from previous MP install and all went fine. I have just come to play a video and now get the dialog box saying:-

"Unable to play: (whatever).avi

Video codec: Xvid
Audio codec:AC3"


This dialog box pops up no matter which codec I try, and with every film I try. This was working fine in previous install and is part of MP that I have never, ever had a problem with. I know the config screen is slightly different on RC1, but is there something basic I'm failing to see ??

I'm using the Moving Pictures plugin, which appears to be working correctly.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Ray,

I d/loaded the revised .dll and pasted it into the install directory and it works fine now without having to change anything.
