I have been running JRiver for many years (and versions) for watching movies, playing music etc.
However, in the last few days when I try to play a ripped DVD I get the sound but the screen is blank. If I play a ripped Bluray, it appears fine. So I though it could be an upscaling issue and have tried changing those settings but to no avail.
I have restored the settings from a known good backup and still it does not work. I have completely removed JRiver and its settings and reinstalled version 25.0.115 both 64 bit and 32, again neither work.
If I play the movie using VLC on the same machine, everything is fine. If I do to another machine with JRiver, that too is fine!
I have also tried MC26 but still have the same issue. Perhaps it could be a Windows Update issue....I will try resetting PC.
I am perplexed...does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Ian
Update: Did a fresh install of Windows 10, then installed JRiver MC25 and nothing else. Still would not play DVD based films). I am suspecting something in Windows has changed due to a recent update that is stopping any version of JRiver from working since I have tried MC 26 as well. I have other machines on on the same version of Windows/Updates and same MC25 version but different hardware and they work okay. VLC does work however so this appears to be a JRiver Media Center issue.
