I wonder if anybody here can help.
I have connected an external USB DVD-ROM to one of the USB ports of the Markus-800. I can play all DVDs but not any other type of files like Dvix, Xvid or mkv. The directory on the DVD is however read correctly. If I copy these Dvix/xvid files on an SD card or the internal HD they play flawlessly. Does anybody know why? The DVD-ROM works fine if connected to a PC

Please give us much information as possible.

So you can browse the files on the dvd? or what do you see? and if you can see the files what happens when you try play the files? nothing or error?
Tried with a cdr?
In what mode are you burning? multisession, discatonce and iso or udf mode etc?

The external USB DVD-ROM plays all types of DVDs (with ifo and vobs) when connected to the Markus-800. If I put a single session DVD/CD with dvix, xvid or any other video file, I can browse the files and the directory is shown correctly but when I select and try to play any of the files I get the error message "file type not supported". The same dvix/xvid files work pefectly on the Markus-800 if played from the internal HD or from an SD card connected to the USB port. The DVD burnt with divx files plays perfectly on all my Dvix players. I have the impression that a USB DVD-ROM connected to the USB port of the Markus-800 is not recognized as a mass storage device but as a DVD.
