    Media Player plays movie on DVD but does not play movie that is on disk (HD).

    The Media Player (ver. 12) or Media Center Player plays movie that is on a DVD but does not play the movie on the hard disk.

    This is a problem on Win 8.1 pro and Win 10 home.

    It works on Win 7.

    The movie is not in a library - is this a requirement?

    How do I get the Media Player or Media Center to play a movie that is on the hard drive?

    If you're going to try a different Media Player, try Daum PotPlayer. It's much better than VLC.

    Hi there

    Don't convert FLAC to mp3 -- why convert a Lossless format to a Lossy format -- unless you can get 320 kb/s using Mp3's will disappoint when you play on any serious decent equipment -- if you are using those hideous cheap bud earphones - especially the white ones -- where the people around you hear more of the "music" than you do - then OK but on decent equipment forget the whole idea of FLAC to MP3 conversion.

    While I like VLC there are loads of capable players out there that will do flac --including the old "Venerable" Winamp --yes it still works on W10. !!!

    Cheers

    After I got a new player named 5KPlayer, I no longer use VLC. 5KPlayer can play FLAC and more video audio formats that I know.

    Good for you.
    Just one question, if I may :
    What video and audio formats you have found that won't work in VLC ?
