Won't Play Videos [Solved]

(1/3) > >>

nwboater:
All our media is stored in the 'Shares' of a WHS machine. We have two client PCS. All have MC 14.0.161.  For some reason when we try to play ripped DVD movies that show up in the 'Videos' folder we always get the message:  "MC encountered errors while trying to play the last several files. Please make sure the path in your media library points to the right location".

This is the path shown when I hover over the movie cover for Betrayed: D:\videos\dvdmovies\betrayed\video_ts\video_ts.dvd:1

When I try to play the movie from 'Drives & Devices' it works fine. Note the difference in the path: \\Mellserver\videos\..... (the rest is same as above). For some reason they all play fine from here, ie, playing from Drives and Devices.

The odd thing is that 'Audio' and 'Images' play fine and they use the same file convention as for 'Videos'.

We have been playing our movies fine from a different player, but really want to start doing it from MC.

BTW Theater View is wonderful. Beautiful graphic design job!

Sure hope someone can help.

Thanks,
Rod

Could you try MC15?  We've done some work in this area.

Jim, Thanks for the very prompt response.

I have bought 15 but was holding off upgrading until your new 15.0.33 is out. Having to do it on all 3 machines is a bit of a job, but if it will cure the problem I sure will.

Do you have any idea when .33 will be available?

Thanks again.
Rod

JimH:
Next week, but why not try a couple of machines now?  Just download and install it.  There's no need to uninstall.

Are you using Library Server?  If so, you need to add some paths to it for DVD sharing to work.
