Does anyone else find it odd that even after installing all required codecs
enabling playback of various video formats in Media Player 11, that Media
Center still refuses to play back the same files and complains of missing
codecs?

Doesn't Media Center use the Media Player components for playback? Isn't
there any built in functionality in Media Center to download codecs as
required? I'm baffled and miffed.

Any help or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.
