If your using the standard Media Player I found it very frustrating. Try and install the enhanced movie centre plugin from the plugins section, it really makes the experience of playing back recordings far smoother. In addition it organises your recordings in a more sensible way, so you get more of a series link view that was present on the sky boxes rather than an unfriendly file system view.

You need to download the version at the bottom of the page, the one at the top was not named correctly

Many file types are listed and played with appropriate hardware: Video:. "ts" [,. "avi" "divx". ". f4v", ". flv", ". img", ". iso", ". m2ts". "m4v", ". mkv", ". mov", ". mp4", ". mpeg" ,,, "vob".] "mpg". "mts."

When trying to play an iso file it complains that I do not have a dvd player installed. :(

I also find problems fast forwarding recordings unless I set to 64x, it doesn't go any faster than 1x. Anyone else seen that?

What would be good is to set a FF speed and then when you press the right arrow it would go at that speed but when you remove the button it goes back to play mode. Just got used to that on PlayTV.

Which is easily done via applications --> Green --> Extensions --> DVDPlayer (don't forget to restart when done).
From now on all ISO-files and TS-folders can be played from the default movielist.

Already got the DVDplayer installed - EMC still complains.

Hehe, don't use EMC. After all: what does it add? Just use the playlist for all playback.

Better loooking cleaner interface
Better media compatability
More media types can be played
Doesn't crash like the standard media player
TV mini window so you can still see TV whilst searching media


Does anyone know where the settings files are stored for EMC on the box? e.g /usr/share

thanks

Ahhh, you should't use the mediaplayer at all: just use the movielist, it has all the needed functionality, even preview!
And the "little window" is also in there (depending onb th skin used, try Magic-HD).

The MediaPlayer is just a GUI, and hasn't been updated for years. EMC is also just a GUI, not adding enhanced playback.
