Hi everyone,

I have problems playing files. It gives me the following error message (translated from dutch, I am sorry):

Playing playlist aborted
One or more files can not be played.
Please check log file for details.

The log file does not say anything to a noob like me....

Does anyone have any suggestions? The files i try to play are .MKV files.

Thanks in advance,

Vliet.

Enable debug logging from System settings, System, Debugging, and restart XBMC then wait a minute or two for all the startup tasks to finish. Now attempt to play a film, and when it fails close XBMC.

If you're using Linux or OSX see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Log_File for how to get at the log file. If you're using Windows open the debug log by pressing Windows-R and in the Run dialog type:

"%appdata%\xbmc\xbmc.log"

(including the quotes). Click OK and the log should open in Notepad.

Copy and paste the log into http://pastebin.com/ and post the link it gives you here.
