I recently decided to switch my native video player on my general PC and editing rigs to VLC. The majority of the raw content is shot on P2 in mxf format. In the past both machines would play the mxf files in just about any player as long as the panasonic codec is installed. VLC seems to be the only player that will not display a mxf file. The video takes a split second to load, but the video never plays. It will typically just flash a few frames on the screen and thats it.
I have Googled this problem and searched this forum to no avail. Although I see others have this problem, I have found no solution thus far.
Can anyone help me out? Below is my log file.
