I guess not. I am forced to use a Radeon 7000 because the built in video (82865G) doesn't support 1280x720. I realize that MediaPortal does some weird DX thing to display video and that I am supposed to have a newer video card for it to display everything. That is fine, I want to use VLC to display the video as it plays everything with out a fit. However, before I can get VLC to play anything or even to get MediaPortal to try to play anything, I have to view my files. I have my Movies and TV shows sorted by folders that are shared across the network. So Z:\Showname\Season X\Episode.avi (or) W:\Movie Name\Movie.avi (or) W:\Movie\Movie.pls (for Movie1.avi, movie2.avi, etc) . I added the shared network folders to 'my movies' and when I try to browse the folders, nothing shows up? So, how do I get these files to show up in the first place? And then from there, anything special to get VLC to work to play back the videos? [/QUOTE]
