Can't start the player, weird update message

[Octopuss]

Apparently, it once checks something and writes in some file and then you can't run it even with cable plugged out. It's totally silly, maybe it even sits in registry somewhere...

And just for the record, the last stable version is 2.26... 2.27 is beta!

even mor funny, you can't even uncheck the update thing cause the window goes poof and...

edit2: managed to uncheck the thing and edited those 2 lines out.... and guess. Still getting the same message. Also it says there is no new version available - lol.


Switching to Media Player Classic after some 3+ years then. This sucks more than a porn star.
