Hi there,

I'm currently looking for Video Format requirements for playback in QLC+.
I tried H.264 in 1080p without success, but basic DV AVI in Slow Def worked.

Is there a list of working formats ?

Thanks a lot.

Hi, audio and video playback are OS dependant.
Please state which OS you are using.

OK. I cannot qualify exactly the supported formats and codecs, but I would say Windows likes AVI and WMV.
You might try with them.

If you need more technical information you can have a look at this:

Apparently the multimedia backend is based on DirectShow, so I suppose you can decode what the Windows Media Player decodes.
