Video problems (1 Viewer)

I have installed Mediaportal on my laptop and really like it. Building an HTPC and installed Windows XP and done all the updates.
Installed XBMC for windows, and like the way it looks but it would not show some of my avi files. Installed Mediaportal on the HTPC and it does the same thing. I think it is version 1.0.2. Everything works on the laptop v1.0.0.

Any idea why some videos would play on one computer and not the other?

If other information is need please let me know.

Thanks,

What codecs are you using with MP?

If you check out that thread you should be able to get most any popular format to play.

Thanks for the replies. I really don't know what codecs I have on the HTPC. Did not put anything special on just installed divx, power dvd, and wmp11. I will look at the thread and see what I am missing. Thanks again
