play back of mpg files

[Fredo]

Running Win7 –NPVR
Can’t play music videos via NPVR -mpg files
Avi files run fine
Have looked for a setting etc but there isn’t one that stands out.
Have i missed a codec etc

It could be lots of things, but by default Win7 doesn't include the mpeg-ps demux/splitter that some files need.

Just tested via win media player works fine!
is there some codec pak I'm missing?
NPVR for TV works fine

Usually MPEG-2 .mpg files would play fine. Are these MPEG2 or MPEG1 files?

[mvallevand]

I have installed NPVR on three separate Win 7 systems and I always needed to install a codec pack to play mpeg-ps files.

Installed K-Lite codec pak

Ok, neither GBPVR or NPVR support mpeg-1 However NPVR has a config.xml option to pass mpg files to Window and you show be okay.

Odd my GB played these files
Anyway how do I get NPVR to play these file via windows?
I just looked at all the settings is there somewhere specific?

[mvallevand]

You probably had a bad timeline, and no resume or skip in GBPVR

Play with these settings

<ForceMpgGraph>true</ForceMpgGraph>
<MpgUsingSplitter>false</MpgUsingSplitter>
