Actually, it turns out John is correct. I just installed the 7-day trial of the latest NeoScene to see if that would even make a difference. To my surprise, the newest NeoScene’s codec works perfectly in VPro9. I guess one could look on the bright side, as we can probably expect a new NEO-Player with the new decoder included. The dark side is that this fabled FREE decoder isn’t out yet. The temporary fix is to install the NeoScene trial, though, it seems.
