DVR-MS Files

[ALAN1]

Just to add, looking at my log playing back a DVR-MS file (Infact the same recorded programme!)....

It looks like your PC dosent know how to playback DVR-MS files (thats my non technical description!)

My files play in both MCE and Media Player fine, just not in GBPVR

When you run Mux Checker, what does it say you have installed? Does it show the MS Mux (mine doesnt)?

[ALAN1]

Running mux checker shows the cyberlink mux installed.

One difference, I am running GBPVR (and the MVP) from a different PC to the MCE Machine, and accessing the files via the network.

I havent tried installing GBPVR on the MCE machine, perhaps there is something in MCE that is causing the problem?

Does playback of a non dvr-ms file work in GBPVR? Have you tried changing the playback settings in the configuration betweenm VMR and Overlay?

The fact that the NVidia icon shows in the taskbar shows its almost working.

The Differences in the log files also show that your PC isnt doing quite the same with the graph filters.

Have you tried rendering the dvr-ms file in graph edit to see which filters it is trying to use?

Fixed! Graph edit showed nothing abnormal, but I uninstalled NVDVD 3.0 and rolled back to NVDVD 2.55, now GBPVR plays DVR-MS fine!
