But, the ones I ran in 64 bit mode versions did not have the problems. specs. (latest) Windows 7-7201 x64 Media Player Classic - Homecinema x64 (works fine playing many codec platforms, including DVD's) Media Player Classic - Homecinema x32 (Hangs up the OS) WMP v12 x32 (Hangs up the OS) WMP v12 x64 (works fine playing many codec platforms, including DVD's) I'm running Windows 7 (6.1.7100) 64bit. I used the 32 bit Media Player Classic, but for me it wasn't the actual program, it is a codec or several codecs, that have been causing the problems. DivX being the main suspect. |

One of my friends informed me a few hours ago that 'DviX wasn't working after installing an update'. I didn't have time to ask about any specifics, but I know he's running 7100x32. I didn't install any updates between the time it worked and started to freeze. The only thing i can think of, is that DivX 7 did an automatic update. (Although i always uncheck the option to do automatic updates, on most software) I have since re-installed Windows 7 (6.1.7100) 64 bit and Both WMP and K-Lite are working fine. So i think DivX is the problem as well. |

I re-installed Windows 7, and both WMP and K-Lite are working, i kno you don't see the need for any 3rd party media players, but i just like the old school look of media player and its simplicity. One of the main reasons for me using K-Lite with Media Player Classic, is the use of subtitles. WMP does not use .srt files natively, i kno they are 3rd party apps i can use so this can be achieved, but that would just be using another 3rd party application. I think the problem was DivX pro 7, which i don't really care for anyways, so i haven't installed it and everything works fine now.  Thanx for all ur help, much appreciated. |
