I have a Nokia Lumia 2520 that runs Windows RT, and when I try to play a video(either locally or streamed over my network) I get a "Decode Error" for some of the files. When I play these same files on a Windows 8(x86) based machine the files play just fine. So I was wondering are there any codec limitations for the Windows RT version of PowerDVD Mobile? If not, how do I get this Decode error to stop... If the Windows RT version of PowerDVD Mobile doesn't support this type of file, why isn't this mentioned in any of the documentation.
Other than this error, I really enjoy this piece of software.. worth the price of my Live subscription!
BTW the file is an MKV file.
Thanks
Stephen..

Sorry, I found the version that works with RT. Ignore my deleted post.

The version you have should play "Enjoy videos in popular MKV, MPEG-2 and M2TS (MPEG-2) formats"

Hi,
Looks if your file is XVID codec, which is not supported in RT

Ah ok... is there a site that lists what each version supports, and doesn't support?

I'm surprised why xvid is not on the list. Please don't get me wrong but is there a reason why this is not?
