the Media Player. Try converting the video file into a 

format known to be compatible with the Media Player.

If possible, create a new version of the video from the 

original. Playing the video file on a computer can help 

you determine if the file is corrupted.  This can help 

you confirm that the video file is in a format that the 

Media Player supports also. For a list of supported 

formats, see the Documentation tab of the Media 

Player’s driver in Composer Pro.

approximately 10 seconds of video to help alleviate 

these problems, but if network issues persist, then 

video playback issues may arise. If needed, work with 

a networking professional to ensure your network has 

sufficient available bandwidth for video playback.  

Ensure that the NAS where your video files are stored 

is functioning properly.

audio to work. When playing a video file that has DTS 

encoded audio the Media Player will not output any 

audio over the Left/Right RCA audio outputs.

If possible, create a new version of the video from 

the original.
