Hello I downloaded the MPlayer CE app so I could run videos from my external hard drive that I use with USB Loader but every time I go to the hard drive it freezes while the USB Loader works fine. I partitioned it into two parts first is WBFS and second is NTFS both are set to primary. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The windows format should go first not seconds, Mplayer CE would not detect the WBFS and always assumed that the first partition is fat32/NTFS.

Try format the HDD again,to NTFS/FAT32 then make sure that Mplayer CE detects the HDD , then create seconds partition for WBFS.

if not just format both WBFS and move all games to 2nd partition then format the first partition to NTFS.

Thanks for the response I just backuped all my games and formatted the drive to NTFS now both partition are NTFS. Mplayer CE still freezes when I click to browse the external hard drive. My SD Card works fine but for some reason it still doesn't work.

I don't think MPlayerCE supports NTFS.
Geexbox might however.

Edit: Actually it looks like Geexbox might not support it either.
Try Fat

Well I formatted the first partition of my drive to exFat which was the only other option besides NTFS and now nothing happens when I click on USB, no freezes or anything just nothing. Ah maybe im missing something. Thanks for the help so far guys.

I don't think Mplayer CE supports exFAT?

Get a tools from HDD vendor that can format HDD to FAT32, or try acronis or partition magic.
