DVD playback issue. (3 Viewers)

Hi guys,

In the configuration app, please go to Filter Control and uncheck "Exclusive Mode". Please report if this changes the behavior

Hi,

(I went and uninstalled the ATI omega drivers and went back to official ATI dirvers 6.11 for my card. No change in behaviour.)

(I also updated the TV engine and tv-plugin to current version tvengine3-09-04-2007--01-22h--Rev15745)

The exclusive mode is unchecked in the DirectShow filter control -> Video mixing renderer 9 settings.

About the DVD codec and there is checkmark on the "turn off DxVA". The codecs do not list Sonic or Nvidia Pure.

In the available list there is:
- MPV Decoder Filter (selected one)
- Dscaler Mpeg2 Video decoder
- Cyberlink Video/SP decoder
- Intervideo nonCSS video decoder for hauppauge
- Cyberlink MPEG muxer
- PDR MPEG muxer
- Hauppauge winTV MPEG2 muxer
- Cyberlink MPEG muxer


Same behaviour. I include log-file again.

In the log file there is: DVDPlayer9: Enabling DX9 exclusive mode

And later when re-playing the DVD there seems to be: DVDPlayer9: Disabling DX9 exclusive mode

By the way now everytime I stop MP, it crashes, very strange...

I uninstalled ffdshow and disabled DX9 exclusive mode.

The DvD problem is still there, No change.

Just tried your suggestions with build 15745 and same problem.

Could you guys change the zoom mode to different values and see if you get a picture that way. This should make the picture pretty small. Thanks

After a couple of months of tinkering, I seem to have got round the problem by adding the mediaportal .exe to the list of programs that DVD region-free is associated with. I'm not sure why this works, as the problem seemed to be present for every region DVD I threw at it, but anyway, it's all working now. And working damn well!

THat's a good point actually, playing back a video_ts folder off of a hdd has no problem whatsoever, but off of a disc is a no go, almost as if the region protection is causing the problem.

I also have the problem with the screen going black when I play DVDs from HDD. I have ATI X1250 integrated graphics.

MP becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it.

I almost thought I'd fixed this by downgrading my ATI drivers as the first DVD I put in played just fine, tried another and the black screen again.

Hmmm, I'm not so sure anymore this has to do with the graphics card/drivers.

I installed an Nvidia 6600GT and ForceWare 162.18 to test the video/DVD playback and got ecxatly the same issue. Nothing in the logfile now either that indicate what the problem may be.

Anyone with some clever ideas?
