The error description/number I get is Code: `Can't load picture from file: D:\ScalaArt\CastNET\images\MpegLibrary\Community\Charmin-Colgate.mpg. Internal error message:'[]' -536870399` Edited by user Monday, December 24, 2007 3:54:46 PM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

Unlike the width/height/bitrate, the frames are encoded. So if we are able to read the MPG details, it does not mean that there is an appropriate codec available...

Any other suggestions? I can put one of my files in a location for you to download if that would help.

That's why it is not guarantied that it can be accepted by Media Processor if Windows Media Player can. But nonetheless, if you give us an example of such file, it would help. Please submit case with info where I can download it from. Edited by user Friday, May 23, 2008 3:01:59 PM(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified
