Ok installed 1.0 the other day, and get it working fine with ISO files then, maybe, a day or two later you release 1.0.1 so i update to that and now i find i can not play the ISO files.

MP can see them but when i double click/press OK nothing happens.
Codecs and things i have no idea about and less idea about where they should be put (unless they find there way there when downloading).

If you can give me some guidelines as i am stumped as to why I cant get it working when i could with 1.0

Oh i did do a uninstal as i got so hacked off and then reinstalled 1.01 fresh.

thanks in advance.

i media portal coniguration advanced mode, make sure you have added the .iso extension in the videos tab. upon re-installing, you might have lost this setting.

it is there or i would not be able to see the ISO file? like i said the problem is when i click on them/select press play (as before) nothing happens!

 

[Boiler]

check anyway. i had the problem once that the iso extension was missing. i could still see the iso-files in moving pictures for example, but i couldn't play them or add new iso's.

also make sure that the settings for daemon tools are correct. use the same virtual drive as daemon tools does

 

[nicklouse]

it is added.

Very confused now. the Deamon that was linked on the "home" page is no longer available as a free download.

If i understand it correctly, even if using VLC media player as the preferred player, a deamon is needed?

this is doing my head in. Why did i "upgrade" to 1.0.1!

 

[Boiler]

use of one those versions:

Daemon Tools - DOWNLOAD at OLD VERSION.COM

Bolier, cheers for the link. I now have it working ish after having got rid of some crap attached to the deamon download. one or two tweeks just need sorting and i may have a working set up.
