Kerry, the video is 512 x 256 rendered from Mediacleaner with charger, defualt settings pretty much? 30 fps
maybe the size is the problem, the sample 320x240 mpeg with the demo plays fine?

It really doesn't have much to do with the Media player, I think. You just need an Mpeg driver compatible with DirectMedia. I used DirectMedia on a PIII 300 2-3 years ago, and it worked fine for both Mpeg 1 and Mpeg 2 video. It's hard to compare Mpeg and Sorenson--there are more relevant issues. What is the frame rate? What size is the video (smaller will generally play better than big). Do you have a lot of key frames? What other processes are running? I don't know what the "unknown error" might be--I'd need more information. You could check with the Tabuleiro tech support folks--they're real helpful.
