## Known issues
27+
28+
* MediaPlayer is currently non-functional for VK/DX12 targets, resulting in "Song's" not playing. Sound effects still work as expected. This is being worked on in Code Time
29+
* Spaces on Windows are not supported in Project paths currently due to a limitation in the command line parser currently used. Having spaces anywhere in the path will cause content build errors. We are looking to replace the command-line parser to resolve this. Mac and Linux are unaffected.
30+
* In initial testing, DX12 seems to not run on certain machine configurations, unclear why at this time as it works 90% of the time. Additional test data/feedback is needed.
