[QUOTE="PacYac, post: 472949, member: 83439"] [b]Vista SP2 Mediaportal failure[/b] I have MediaPortal 1.02 installed which had been running fine on Vista SP1 viewing and recording from satellite DVB-S, all non-Hi-Def. I installed Vista SP2 a few days ago. This appeared to install without any issues. I am now having several problems as a direct result of the SP2 install: 1) I cannot play Live TV - MP hangs and I have to kill it. 2) I cannot play recorded TV. It simply hangs for quite a few seconds, flickers, does nothing, then normal control resumes. I can still schedule TV recordings with MP, but I have to watch them with some other software such as Windows Media Centre. 3) When playing DVDs (ISO images) or videos of any sort MPEG WMV MP4 etc I get no sound/audio. Music (Mp3 WMA) plays OK. All video/TV/DVDs use MPC-MPEG-2 Video Decoder (Gabest) All video/TV/DVDs sound use MPC - MPA Decoder filter to Digital SPDIF renderer. Apart from the above, all MediaPortal functions as normal! 4) After one or two failed attempts I managed to uninstall SP2 but the same Mediaportal problems remain. I can't say I am too impressed with Vista SP2. Mediaportal [U]is[/U] getting much better bit by bit. Any help appreciated. [/QUOTE]
