The problem with MPV decoder can be solved by using latest Mpeg2DecFilter from
the MPC home cinema project page.

After unregistering the version shipped with MP and registering the new version
the connection to EVR succeeds (see graph in attached zip file)
and the black screen issue does not arise anymore.

Dumb question, how do you go about unregistering the MP version and then registering the new version from MPC Home cinema?

    Open a dos prompt,
    navigate to MediaPortal program files folder,
    unregister the old filter "regsvr32 /u Mpeg2DecFilter.ax"
    (rename the old filter in case you want use it later)
    paste the new filter to the same folder and
    register it "regsvr32 Mpeg2DecFilter.ax"

    THANKS, I was missing the "/u" in the command. My black screen is now fixed!!! Today is my first day running with MediaPortal (using the moving pictures plug in) and it looks great!

    thanks to everyone for taking the time to resolve this issue.
    my "stop-stop-back-mediabutton" alternative was getting old not to mention lauching my XBOX media center everytime.
    nice to have a true solution..

    Hello.
    I just want to ask if you plan to update Mpeg2DecFilter.ax continually?
    I am asking, becouse i have this filter in my SAF package.
    If MP team add newer vesion to every futher MP releases, i will remove Mpeg2DecFilter.ax from SAF.

    BTW: Do you plan to update "MpaDecFilter.ax" too? There are lot of fixes, FLAC support in new releases, etc... Working great!

    latest versions of Mpeg2DecFilter.ax and MpaDecFilter.ax are in svn now (from MPC project).
    we will keep an eye on them and update them if MPC releases new versions. :)

    That is good news !

    Add MPCVideoDec.ax too, and it will be perfect :) (after TsReader.ax + MPCVideoDec.ax issue will be fixed)
