Blue Screen for Some Videos? [SOLVED]

[elgrayso]

SOLVED:
I installed the K Lite and it didnt work at first, but I realized that you need to turn on the DirectShow option in the Super Advanced Settings of Simple VR. It took me awhile to find it because its just a transparent triangle at the bottom of the normal settings window. Click that to get to the extra settings. Hope this helps someone


----------------------------

I read the video troubleshooting guide above, installed K Lite basic and inspected my files with MediaInfo. My best guess is it has something to do with the "Main@L6" format profile, because the ones that do seem to work have a lower number than this. But it could be coincidence..

Any ideas?

EDIT: I should mention that the videos do play on the default Windows 10 media player.
