Title: Failed to download LAV splitter filter
Post by: jrdiandrea on October 02, 2015, 09:44:08 am

I have 3 machines running mc21011. ... on Server and 2 client machines. After updating to 11 the server will play videos fine but the 2 clients won't. I get error Failed to download LAV splitter filter. What can I do to fix this?

Also, the server plays live TV but the clients will not.

Thanks

I had my tech look at my router. He turned anti virus off and immediately Live TV and my video files play properly.

This strange because MC21 acting as the server worked fine after the update. My other 2 machines acting as clients on the same netwrok, did not. Don't understand why the 2 clkient machines apparently weren't able to download the LAV filter but the server machine did.

I have a SonicWall (http://www.sonicwall.com) router.....when the AV was turned off the 2 client machines apparently were able to download the necessary files that were missing. But the weird thing is that the machine acting as a server to the 2 clients had no problem at all with live TV or playing video.
