DIVX 8 codec/player

Hi all, In an effort to have a "lean" mediacenter box, I uninstalled all codecs and started from scratch with the DIVX 8 codec pack. The problem however, appears to be that MKV's made using MakeMKV 1.5.4 and greater do not play in mediacenter at all. At first I thought that this was an ins...

MKV and Windows 7 Media Center not working

Thank you for creating such an easy to use application. However, after several attempts, I am unable to play MKV's created using makemkv in Windows 7 Media Center. Initially I thought that the sound, using AC3 instead of AAC was the problem. So to recitfy the problem I decided to do the following: -...
