[solved] PowerDVD 10 can't play MKV files
[Post New]
Thanks to CS I had issues with Roxio Creator 2011 and PDVD 10 on my new HTPC

Completely wiping creator and PDVD then reinstalled PDVD and all is great.

I am even able to stream and watch a 38GB MKV with no issues.

Interestingly I have Nero 10 installed and Roxio 2011. Is there a compatibility issue ?

Yes there is with Roxio and MKV!

Roxio Creator 2011 had it's own codec that were installed on my Windows systems, as Michael had mention.

Unlike VLC and XBMC self contained codec, Creator was messing with PDVD 10 codec.

You will have a fun time uninstalling Creator completely with CCleaner and manual delete but I managed and there is info and tools on there site how-to's.

I also uninstalled PDVD completely and reinstalled to to be clean and all is well finally.

I just installed Creator on my other PC with PDVD 8 but PDVD 8 doesn't play mkv so no issue. I only wanted it for file conversion and capture.

Good Luck!

Update 2429 fixes the issue. Good job.

Your saying update "2429" will let Roxio-2011 coincide with PDVD-10?

Right now, I can play MKV files with PDVD 10 on my system with Roxio 2011 installed, yes.
