Need to run on Win XP32

But... SECURITY!!!!   ;D

There are likely solutions out there to get 525i SDI working for you. What about just replacing the Jukebox's screen with a regular 4:3 LCD with VGA or HDMI, not feasible with some handiwork and duct-tape?

The problem with MC21 is that the URLs it knows to download the CODECs may no longer be correct - things keep changing on the internet.

You can try this:
- install MC25/26/27 32-bit on a Windows10 machine (Trial versions are OK)
- play a few files so that the necessary CODECs are downloaded and installed
- copy the folder %AppData%\J River\Media Center 27\Plugins to the Windows XP machine

Not sure if some Registry keys are also needed. You'll have to test.

Awesome Donkey:
While madVR might work that way, I'm fairly certain that the newer LAV Filters that ships in newer versions of Media Center don't support Windows XP, requiring Vista and newer so your idea may not work here.

zybex:
Right. You can manually get an older LAV release and extract it to the proper folder (same with MadVR):
https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases

Also, not sure which VC++ runtime might also need to be installed, if any. You may need to install VC++ Runtime 2010, 2013, 2015... doesn't hurt to install them all.

The OP said the XP machine isn't connected to the internet, that would explain why the files aren't being downloaded.

Well spotted, Richard.

Glimmie, you will have to make the necessary arrangements.
