Unfortunately, no. Windows x64 does not contain a 64bit version of media player, so I assume that the codecs are still 32bit. (Which is weird, since video and database is always mentioned as the main strength of 64bit processing :-)). > I don't like creating a 32bit chroot environment. I think it should be possible to include the 32bit codecs in a 64bit process using some "linking glue". Hotwever, I have no idea whether anyone is working on that. I would be nice, though :-) Thomas
