I'm having some trouble watching h264 videos with media portal, both with the internal movie player and while watching tv. The thing i find strange is that when i watch the movies in power dvd they play just fine only using 5-8% of the cpu. But when i try to do the same in media portal the screen goes black and mp hangs.
My guess is that i use the wrong decoders since there are so many to choose from. Which ones are you guys using? Are there some tricks to get them working properly?
These are the ones i've tried:
Cyberlink Video/SP BD-HD Decoder (PDVD7.x)
Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder (PDVD7)
ATI MPEG Video Decoder
Cyberlink H.264/AVC Decoder (PDVD7)
Any input would be very appreciated.
Thanks!
