h25 and media share
I just had direct tv installed last month and I am fooling around with media share.
I can get pics and music to play but not video. I did install tversity hoping that would fix the problem but it hasn't. the video files are wmv, mpg, mp4 and avi
any help is appreciated.
thanks

do you see any error messages on the status screen of TVersity? Is it attempting to transcode the video files? ( you can see the transcoding happening on the status screen when playing music and videos.
Personally I installed the CCCP codec pack and I can play videos no problem. You might want to try it out instead of the codecs that come with TVersity.

You may be missing the codec pack. Here is one that another user posted recently. I've tested it out and it works fine with TVersity. Download and install the CCCP pack to your computer.

The CCCP codec pack is intended to work with TVersity. Note that the current version of TVersity does not work properly, I use version 1_7_4_1. If you have a new version, I would uninstall it, install the older version and then load the CCCP.

thanks, I have it working on the main tv (sorry don't know receiver model but has dvr). I am still playing around as some of avi files are not working while others are.
that is funny that an older version works better than the latest update
