I am using a Asrock Ion HT-BD computer and have been having problems with 1080p playback.
I searched the forum and tried following the MPC-HC External Player Guide
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO_use_a...a_playback
I installed MPC-HC and created an advancedsetting.xml file and placed it in my userdata folder but I am having problems as it doesn't seem to find the file and therefore XBMC doesn't load the external player.
I have ran the debugger and here is an extract where I think the problem occurs:
I am resonably computer literate but this is really starting to do my head in.
Can anyone help me try to resolve my issue?
