I have problems with hardware acceleration of my nVidia video card.
I can't see the video in the preview window with mplayer.

How can I set MediaCoder to launch mplayer without DirectX hardware acceleration?

Thnak you

Not sure if this option is present in MediaCoder iPod version, but try File --> Settings....

MediaCoder Preferences
Overall --> Playback --> Video Output Device

Can't say for sure if this will fix the problem.

I already tryed to click on File->Settings. But on both standard and iPod versions, this menu does nothing (it seems a dummy menu item).

Do you have Firefox 2 or 3 web browser installed on your computer?

FireFox 3. Why?

Forgot the why.
I searched the forum and I clicked the Safe Mode and now the settings works.
It doesn't open a dialog box but a full FireFox window.

Sorry it works only for full MediaCoder.
The iPod version doesn't find FireFox. I tryed to type in the path, to find it with the button, to browse to executable, but nothing. For the iPod version FireFox isn't installed on my system (but it is the default browser).
I have XP SP3 with FireFox 3.
