Hmz ... it hasn't anything to do with NTFS partitioning. I don't use NTFS but I found the same problem with my PC too. Mirc should be able to play mp3 and wma, so I inserted some wma songs in my playlist. When I select an mp3 song it is played as expected and when I select a wma song I get "/splay unable to play file ...". But this wma song is played correctly with my Windows media player. So: the path is ok, the filename is ok, my Windows mediaplayer is ok. Could there be something wrong with CODEC? Unfortunately I don't know much about CODEC smirk
