Hi all,

I have some troubles with RR on my car PC when trying to play video. The screen remains black and the timings are all 00. I get the following errors (debug) :

On my desktop PC it is working fine.
The Carpc has a nlited Xp SP2 version. I don't have wmp on it (thought it was not necessary while using mplayerc and divx codecs). If I launch mplayerc on the carpc the video is working

Any ideas

Thx

This typically is a file issue -- try loading different files/video onto the video player. Or try a video fixer application.

I came across an MPG file with this problem and I was able to FIX it using two tools in sequence:

1-FIXMPG1.EXE <FILENAME>

Which creates separate video (MPV) and audio files (MP2)

2-MPLEX1.EXE <FILENAME>.MPV <FILENAME>.MP2

The result was almost 2Mb bigger than the original file (of 38Mb)! But it looked like it was more in sync than the original file as well.

Here are the tools:
