    I just had this issue myself - DivX codecs caused this..

    try gspot or graphedit to see which codecs are used for the files where you can't skip.

    Either change the merits or de-install/de-register the codec which is used..

    I think they are playing but i cant see them black screen. Tried all sorty sof codecs. Using Purevideo audio and videocodec. I thinks iyts the same problem as before to but worse, Its workign just cant see nothing :)



    I have Divx 6.3 installed so i might dump that and see if it helps.

    Thanks.

    You need a de-CSS capable "commercial" codec to watch DVD.

    Did you install a trial earlier (e.g. purevideo)?

    Are you using a SVN after mediaportal-svn-05-24-2006--13-30. My arrow keys stopped working to with later ones, so I went back to the above SVN.

    Also just noticed I cant change aspect's with the "S" button, it's happend before might just need a reboot to fix it.

    I'll try the latest SVN soon and do a bug template if it's still there.

    Do you think you are affected by this?
    26/04/2006 [09:23:59] mPod Config MoviePlayer chooses Mpeg2Dec as default now (if installed), same as DVD & TV did already
    26/04/2006 [12:03:42] mPod General when writing to HKLM registry on startup without sufficient rights the problem gets logged instead of hard crash
