Convert with x264, play with media player classic and VLC

[presler]

Hi, I convert video in Windows using x264 codec, and when I play it in media player classic show me nothing (only audio), but in VLC I can see full correct video (with audio).
Why is it so? If you know.

media player classic not supporting that x264 video codec or it has problems with the resolution?
Test: re-encode small sample 5 seconds with a resize 768x576(pal) or 720x480 (ntsc) to size that does work  on media player classic.

Forgot to tell, that it happens only with mkv muxer.
Media player play only audio, it doesn't see video stream.
With resizing the same situation. Use r8255.

windows classic player don't like .mkv with x264 in it?

It is problem with Haali Media Splitter 1.11.288.0 as I understand (GraphStudioNext doesn't built graph for video), it doesn't recognize video stream or with something else.
