Hi have recently switched to ds player had to install a codec pack to play certain files however when I try to play H265 files with ds player enabled just a black screen but if I use kodi player the files play fine
am I missing a certain setting the files also play on wmp as well

Nowadays you really should avoid codec packs, they are kind of useless and potentially mess up your system. madVR, Sanear, LAVfilters, xySubs/vsFilter. You rarely need anything else.

How have you setup Filters in Settings/Player/DSPlayer? If you select "Internal", your codec pack installation should not have messed up stuff.

thanks for the quick reply I am using internal filters but couldn't get it to h265 so I re encoded the file to h264 all is good now
