[SOLVED] Media Player Classic won't work any more!

(1/4) > >>

Hi all,

I use the old mplayerc on both my old W7 desktop and my W8.1 laptop, to reduce cpu/mem usage etc as they both struggle at times, and recently (this week) it has stopped working on my W7. Thinking it was a problem with my PC (I've had lots, see my other thread on WU etc!) I tried the one on my W8.1 and found this to be exactly the same!  :omg: I've tried re-downloading it from one or two different sources and it seems to be the same whichever one I use.

I've tried playing with the settings following similar threads on this topic and it doesn't seem to work, unless I've missed something.. Does anyone have any ideas on how to cure this or is it now obsolete? The error I am getting is AudioSwitcher:Out and Cannot render the file...

Thanks

When you Google audioswitcher out and cannot render the file quite a few links are found which, as you know the program, you will know what they are talking about.

Hi,
 Go to Option menu in the Edit tab at the tab of mpc.  Then select internal filters, then at the top pl uncheck the audio switcher. Try

Ha, thanks guys. I did try some of the google threads I found but they either weren't applicable or weren't resolving the issue, which is why I posted here to try and short circuit the investigation in case anyone had a similar experience and knew a possible solution.

Ok well the plot thickens - my W8.1 laptop is now ok, and I've done nothing to it! Strange, I never altered anything in the first place to stop it working (as far as I know) but now it's fine again so no worries there. The W7 is a different matter however. I tried your setting jraju, and the error went but has now been replaced by a different error - MPEG-1 Audio Decoder: Out. It will play videos however, including the accompanying sound, but won't play any type of music-only file, mp3, wma, wav etc.

I've gone through All the settings looking at both machines at the same time and they're identical, so it's not the settings at fault, yet something is preventing the W7 one working - the files all play on WMP and Media Monkey though...  :rolleyes:

Hi, May be it is not enabled.
                Go to the internal filters and enable the same or enable all the codecs found there. Try.
