in the original ptv my mp4 and mkv files never played not sure if other ppl's played or not but that may be your issue

no, in the previous version of PTVL (up to today) it worked, which was really cool: yesterday was a variety day workout so instead of choosing a video on my own I let PTVL choose it for me!

but today, PTVL wont load at all (black screen) if any of the channels are defined as a non-strm directory.

if I set the channel as a playlist however, PTVL will load up anything. this of course is difficult to do when your source is not defined as either movies or tvshows as is the case with these fitness videos.
