RE: Vista Media Center playback error

Thanks for the reply, I have installed gspot and loaded a file that plays ok
into it, I get some errors at the bottom but I dont know what the problem is
its not very clear. How do the following messages help they dont mean much to
me :

Failed to connect output pin 0x04b23d44 ("Src Media") on FILENAME to input
pin (Stream) on filter 0x02e959ef (Divx Demux) connect direct failed Error
unknown


I have also tried downloading the Vista codec pack but still having same
issue.
