[QUOTE="bluesk1d, post: 472726, member: 95618"] Hey gang. I am new to MediaPortal but I am loving it! My thanks to all the contributors! I am coming from a NMT Popcor Hour A-110 so the level of eye candy and functionality of MP is totally blowing my mind. The only positive thing about the NMT is that it flawlessly plays back any container/format you can imagine in 1080p without any fuss. My question is in regards to the other (less common) Blu-Ray/HDDVD standard video codec, VC-1. Before I had my NMT, I ripped my HDDVDs and BDs and encoded them into VC-1/WMA Pro 5.1 in an asf (.wmv) container since that is your only choice for HD with 5.1 on the Xbox 360. I see the options to select your choice of h.264 decoders but where do you tell MP what decoder to use for VC-1? If there is no such option, what decoder does it use by default? These files are hit or miss and choppy at best in MP. Since I am entirely too lazy to re-rip and encode all of these movies in h.264, I would like to get this figured out!
