TV Series getting NO PLAY OPTION

#1

Post by jwlxusa » Sat Jan 31, 2015 9:23 pm

I see all my TV series on the WMC screen and I can select any of them and see Season 1, 2, etc. However, when I select an episode and click Play I get a message box:

NO PLAY OPTION
The is not any play options for the episode

All my stuff is in TS video format. My movies play fine, never had a problem. I can play any TV episode outside of WMC using VLC Media Player so I'm pretty sure nothing is corrupted.

I do have My Movies installed and it's unclear if the message box is coming from My Movies or WMC. Because of the "The is not..." instead of "There is not..." I kind of suspected My Movies, but there's really no way to know.

Running WMC version 6.1.7601.17514 and My Movies 5.2. I can't say I've ever gotten the TV Series working properly. Also, I don't see any way to check if WMC is up to date; presumably Windows Update takes care of that?

Bottom line is I have no idea what this message means. And search as I might I can't find any help with it. I'd be happy to provide a PLAY OPTION if I knew where to do it (or what it was for that matter.) Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

What library are they in (Video, Recorded TV, etc.) and you said that other files in same format play OK (Movies?) - is that correct, and if you put the TV in the same "library", do they play?

Never used My Movies, so can't really be of more help
