Thanks for that, hopefully someone with 4gb+ files can check too. If 4gb+
fails can someone please capture a movie starting with ethereal, and I can
check the packets sent to the mvp. Thanks.

This is strange, I have 600+ mpg clips and all render perfectly. Is
everyone
on the latest .net framework? Has anyone with problems in this area got
wmp10 installed (rather than wmp9)?

This is on the to do list, but to get around the rendering issue some users
have I'll implement it today as part of beta v3.8i.

I rechecked my TFT tv and although it has a pink tinge on a lot of stuff I
noticed the xplrionet logo on the main page is actually white.

If anyone has any thoughts as to the cause, or can spend time changing the
rgb font colours in xplrionet.xml to see if they can work out the cause,
I'd
appreciate it.

I'm going to try swapping around the mvp's I have to see if the problem
stays with the tv, or moves with the mvp.

Many thanks
Tony
