Library Server not playing vob files.
I believe others have reported this in other threads.
Got a new setup in another room and want to be able to play movies in there now. Hopefully this will be an easy fix.
Both client and server machines are running same build 11.1.92.
Connected to Library Server.
Can play songs perfectly.
Can't play .vob files via the client.
They play fine on the server machine directly from the hard drive.
I notice that if I let the mouse hover over one of the movies on the client, it displays some info in the popup, including the file path. Here's what that says:
m01p://192.168.100.10:4900/f:\dvd\movietitle\video_ts\vts_01_1
.dvd;1
I'm pretty sure that should say
.vob at the end, not .dvd.
The movie will not play and a popup error message says:
MC encountered errors while trying to play the last several files.
Please make sure that the path in your media library points to the right location.Here's the PLAYBACK eventlog as seen from the client:0000000: General: Starting logging: Date: 1/3/2006 8:27:05 PM
