[QUOTE="gajit, post: 543552, member: 100104"] Hi all, Well, I installed Mediaportal at around 2pm this afternoon, and here I am 9 hours later still trying to figure this out - and it's VERY frustrating. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to play .VOB files using MediaPortal. I have following countless threads and installed, codecs, packs, updates and appear to have tried all sorts of combinations - but still no joy. I have over 3600 titles on my HTPC, mostly ripped as .VOBs, with my TV series mainly ripped to H.264/MP4. The latter play fine. To summarize what I've done so far; Installed the SAF4.00beta20 pack (numerous times) Installed the latest version of DirectX for my O/S - which, incidentally does NOT install the fix for the "D3DX9 not found" issues with the Redist download - the full SDK install is required - at least, that was my experience. Installed Media Player Classic Home Cinema and copied the above dll (d3dx9) to the program directory. Installed the Trial version of PowerDVD9, and copied the CLvsd.ax file to C:\ (again, numerous times as it appears the uninstall for SAF removes it). I configured MP as per this post: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/codecs-external-players-55/saf-v4-00beta-standalone-filters-dxva-ready-mpeg2-h-264-vc-1-a-44614/[/url] If I select a VOB video, the computer basically hangs up. I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del to the task manager and end the task - which says either "Mediaportal - My Videos" or "Mediaportal - Fullscreen Video" MP4's play fine - with MPC. If I play the VOB through the windows file system, PowerDVD9 opens it and plays it no problem. I did try changing the default windows program to Media Player Classic, and although it plays, there is no sound - suspect this isn't symptomatic of the problem in MediaCentre. I'm pulling my hair out here, and although I love the interface and feel of mediaportal, it's very frustrating to not find any specific configuration FAQs or easily-found advice on this. I'm a software professional, so not a novice at all things computer, so it's even more frustrating that I can't get this to work. My 'puter specs: Xp Pro SP3 Intel T2500 2Ghz 2Gb RAM MediaPortal 1.0.2.0 If anyone could offer some help, it would be helpful. Thanks, Graham ps.
