JimH : "What version of WMP?"
Well since I'm using WinXP, then I would say Windows Media Player XP
Oh dear, what have I got myself into
Let me try and clear some things up.....here goes...
Since I have a ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder card (forgot to say that it is a RADEON card), a normal user would use ATI's File Player...
But since I'm a (almost) happy owner of Media Jukebox, I have to be strange and try to use MJ as a video player
If you are playing back a MPEG2 file on a system with that card and software, the video will be played back using ATI's MPEG2 filter (which I might add it VERY good).
If you playback anyother file (mpeg1 and AVI), then you use the same filters as Windows Media Player...
This Is why I ONLY see a problem with MPEG2 files..
Still with me?
very bright persons says : "why can't you then, playback the MPEG2 file in WMP......?"
Well since I have installed a DVD and MP3 packed for WMP, yes silly me...I will try and uninstall it when I have the time....
So I guess WMP tryes to playback with it's own mpeg2 filter, and that just doesn't work right now....
But this is not a problem...
Since MediaJukebox IS using the ATI filter to playback MPEG2 files.....
Did I lose anybody there....
....as me if you need more info.....(sure so EVERYONE can fall asleep)
JimH : "Can you provide an example of a file that won't work?"
Do you have a ATI RADEON card at your place? otherwise I don't see the point.....
