That should only apply to MPEG-1 files, not MPEG-2 recordings from GBPVR.

Yes, that is possible.
Few questrions
-does it work if you open your video file in Graphstudio?
-does it work if you rename *.MPG to *.TS?

Thanks for the response. It doesn't work in Graphstudio with mpg. or ts. It does give me an error that part of the stream is not formatted. it looks like it is using ffwdshow which is not a codec I use. I am trying to uninstall it but I don't see it in add remove programs. I also search my HD and didn't find ffwdshow files.

Can you provide small video sample to test?

How can I pull a small sample from an already existing file?

Thanks

You are Awesome thanks for the help. Now is it ok if I upload the clip here or is there somewhere else I should put it.

Thanks again

Was there ever a resolution to this problem. I am experiencing it on 2 out of 3 computers. On one of my clients I can play back all gbpvr imported recordings perfectly. On the server and one other client I get a black screen with the OSD showing what should be playing. The Time Bar across the top just diplays a begining and ending of 00:00. I am currently on 1.5.28 with all patches installed.

I still haven't found a resolution to the problem. Have you done any editing on the failing files?

Just an FYI I have a 4th client that I just upgraded to NPVR and it plays the GBPVR imports fine. So that is 4 machines all XP SP3, 2 PCs that play it fine 2 that do not.
