    When I attempt to play something in MPC the following message appears in the window at the bottom of the app:

    "Failed to create the filter graph object"

    Can't find anything on this in help or searching these forums.

    Using WinXP Pro with all patches

    mpc should come with some internal filters. Don't know why it didn't work in your case. Download ffdshow from afterdawn.

    Get a app called "avicodec" or "gspot" both programs will scan a video file and the it wiil tell you if the file is supported with your current codecs. If it is not supported it will give you links to get them.
