Default "unable to play media file"
when I first installed BSplayer (v2.36 build 990) it played downloaded FLV files perfectly. But having installed other programs it now refuses to play them saying the codec is missing or the file is damaged. I've installed ffdshow and set the FLV files to play using libavcodec but nothing works. I know the files are okay because they play in other FLV players but I can't get BSplayer to play them and to keep playing them. Please help!

Re-installing latest BS.Player (over the existing installation) doesn't help either?

When posting always mention your computer's OS and the version and build number(!) of BS.Player as used by you,
as well as - if applicable and especially when encountering problems - the type(s) of the file(s) mentioned in your post.

Hi, jaybravo

Did you manage to solve your problem?
I am having a similar problem with files with extension DTS. I reformated my computer's HDD and from that moment on, the fresh install of BSPlayer gives me the "Unable to play media file" dialog. Before the formatting those files were played OK
Any tip you may have may help me too.

PS:DTS-WAV files are played just fine, only the DTS only files have this problem
