When I use wmp or media center, the video is shown slightly earlier than the sound. Probably around half a second. Its nothing wrong with the files, they play perfectly in vlc. This goes for all .avi files, whether its backed up movies, or tv shows. You might say that this is not really a...

Hi, I'm getting no sound/audio when playing either .mpg or .mp4 files in either Windows Media Center or Media Player. Image plays no problem and .AVI files play fine for both sound and image. Was fine in Vista, but this is a most annoying problem since clean install of Windows 7. Help/fix...

Hi there, I've been using the RC's for a few months now, loving it. But since installing RC2 I've run into a wall. I cannot watch live tv on my premium channels(in Canada, Movie Central most notably). Media Center plays for a few seconds, and then freezes, and displays a message that copying...
