I have some problems playing mp4 videos files (nero). They play fine in WMP. I can see their in MP because i add .mp4 to video configuration but when i try to select one in MP nothing happen.
I have also some questions regarding WMV HD, i tried a file http://download.microsoft.com/downl...438-d0f60da6fb54/Coral_Reef_Adventure_720.exe
and it play fine in WMP but the same file is very choppy in MP.
Thanks

    HD files really sort out your graphics card weakness i'm afraid,
    Because MP is quite graphically challenging on its own, when you then add a HD file it tests your graphic card limitations.
    If you do a search on graphic cards that have hd support, you are looking mid-high range cards.
    That's why the basic specs of MP are a directx9 supported card as basics.
    And before anyone replies but ive got mine working on a lower or older card it will, but may not fully support MP or what it can do in the future.

    I understand that but if WMP can play fine in full screen why MP can't ? I also try mp4 HD files and they play fine either in WMP and MP.
