I bought the codecs and put them in my config.txt are restarted but that didn't help.

Thanks yall!


What codec is used? - use VLC to see what it was encoded with.

What is the output of sudo vcgencmd codec_enabled mpg2

If it say's disabled, then check your value is correct in /boot/config.txt

It should be something like 0x.........

codecs were disabled. I input them wrong
That was something i should have checked at the start. ahhh!

I'll be able to test video playback in a few min but that's probably it.

Thanks for you time IriDium.
