FFD Show dont work with Media Centre

I am a bit confused as 'ffdshow' works okay with Windows Media Player but not with Windows Media Centre.

I can play AVI files on WMP no problems, whats that all about!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or is it because I am running Vista 64bit :confused:

Yep!

Media Player is 32bit and Media Centre is 64bit. (don't ask me why)

Check out my thread because I had the same problem.

Are you sure that'll work for Vista x64? I thought it was the 32bit pack.

[edit]
Just spotted the bit about the 64bit addon.
