    With Mpeg-2 files it is Good to use a software DVD Player like PowerDVD or WinDVD because they will install the Correct mpeg-2/AC3 decoders for your system.....

    ummm...none of this worked. could it be because i installed the ace codec 6.03 pack some time back. even some of my quicktime files don't seem to work correctly. neither do any .ts hi-def files. though avi's and divx etc work fine
