I recently transferred some video files (.wmv) to my home server.  When I play them back on my PC, using either Windows Media Player or Real Player, the image is upside down.  Any suggestions for what is causing it and possible remedy?

Wow, I have never heard of that. That doesn't make sense at all! Try copying those files back to your regular PC and see if it does it then. What other software are you running on WHS? PVConnect or anything?

I did install the PVConnect plug in when I first got the server. I have checked the video acceleration settings on the media player and pc, and both are set at full (that was one of the suggestions that I found while googling this problem). I'll try to copy the files back tonight and see if they play properly.

I did some more testing tonight and it seems that the issue only occurs when I play the files with Windows Media Player (I'm using Version 11). If I open the files with Real Player, the playback is fine. When I use Windows Media Player, the image is upside down.
