mc31 video playback failure same as mc28

<< < (5/7) > >>

lepa:
It should download everytime it notices something is missing when it is trying to use some particular plugin. You could check if you for example have lav64 folder in that appdata folder. But if your PC is connected to web and MC can connect to it then probably that's not the issue.

aeneuman:
I looked in Roaming. I have MC25 28 and 31 folders. The MC25 and 31 folders have files from July 2023. MC 28 has files from November 2022.

Awesome Donkey:
Lepa's probably on the right track here, if a firewall or something else is blocking MC from downloading plugins (e.g. LAV filters, madVR, etc.) it can certainly cause this sort of issue.

I suppose there's also a chance that an Intel Haswell iGPU might not be good enough anymore for MC. I seem to recall somebody saying that Intel dropped some sort of support for Haswell (and potentially other iGPUs) with Windows 10 in their drivers. Maybe it was a level of OpenGL support? I do know that newer versions of MC use ANGLE while older ones used Direct3D, if memory serves correctly. The ANGLE-based backend will depend on OpenGL ES and will require an minimum OpenGL support level, can't recall if it's 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, etc. If the plugins are downloaded for MC31 and it still doesn't work, I suppose it could be that. Or it could be a corrupted plugin download, which then you can first backing up the folders to the desktop with MC fully closed, then reopen MC and try playing a video file again and see if MC downloads the plugins needed and then hopefully it plays fine.

Just throwing some stuff out there, hopefully it's something simple like a firewall blocking it or corrupted plugin download or something like that. Good luck though regardless.

jmone:
 :-*Yeah - check to see if you have files within these directories (MC downloads them as needed), eg you will not have the libbluray64 unless you try to play a bluray, or libplacebo64 unless you try to use JRVR.

aeneuman:
I have about six different dll files in the plugins folders. I also have a file from Intel named   l IntelQuickSyncDecoder.

I disabled this Intel file and tried the Media Editor again but the result was the same : error in opening the file.
