MVP not playing

I just found out that my MVP won't play the videos the server recorded.
Its been running fine for minths untouched. I check the PC the the SAGE MVP softaware is running on and it doen't play the video eiter. It lods the menus and goes to the screen where you see the timebar bar it just stays still, likes it paused or stopped (tried unpausing, still nothing)
Like I said, no one has touched it in ages. It just started doing this out of the blue. Maybe a windows update did something. Any clue? I also reset the server and the MVP computer and same S***.

I have gotten that myself a few times.... Power cycling the MVP helped. Not just the green button on the remote, pull the plug for a couple of seconds.

everyone is sleeping so I can't try that right now, but you think that would work even if the video won't play on the pc running the plugin??? Just curious how, and thanks for getting back

Well you were right AMG, I snuck upstairs and unplugged it and it worked. Thanks for reminding me to stick with the basics

I actually keep my MVP pluggin into the switched outlet on the back of my home theater receiver. That way the MVP gets a good reboot everytime I turn the receiver on/off.

Used to be a lot bigger problem than it is now (display would get stretched horizontally, and only way to fix was a hard reboot). That doesn't really happen anymore, but I never bothered to move the plug...
