    I cant play a lot of videos even with Media Direct it says i am missing some decoder or something? I cant even the play the few TV recorded samples that came with the OS.

    Do I have to reinstall Media Direct? Or can i download the decoders sepereate?
    Also, does WMP11 uses saem codex as MD? (ie if i installed the codex for wmp11 will media center all of the sudden able to play divx files and such as well?)

    thx
