1474207 2020-12-29 08:06:00 Haven't used Win10's Media Player.

Inserted a CVD but couldn't get Win10's Media player to play.

It also couldn't play a MP4 music file.

What's happening here? I need to use a third party program like VLC to play?

1474208 2020-12-29 09:17:00 Some files wont play in Windows Media Player anymore (due to legal / licencing reasons) or incorrectly created files, due to not having the proper codec pack for it (had some MP4's not work)

Use either VLC or MPC-HC. MPC-HC plays just about anything And you can alter output far more than VLC.

I just use VLC for everything, works for me. Well except Blu ray, I have a paid app for that from DVDFab but I hardly ever use it any more.

1474211 2020-12-30 05:37:00 I was under the impression that MP-HC wasn't supported anymore, but obviously it is still gary67 (56)
1474212 2020-12-30 07:16:00 I was under the impression that MP-HC wasn't supported anymore, but obviously it is still The original isn't but this is another version that some others have continued with.

As per the wording on the page:


Note: The original MPC-HC was abandoned by developers in 2017 but this version carries on the legacy.
