[QUOTE="JargenJ, post: 177314, member: 54452"] I think that DVD playback problems are coming from some issues with Directx 9 and ATI graphics cards. I have ATI Radeon 9250 and I also had same problems with laptop with ATI Radeon mobility card in it. I have the latest ATI drivers installed (they are from 3.5.2006, version 6.14.0010.6614). The DrirectX is of version 9.0C (4.09.0000.0904). There are not many DirectX options to try in the MediaPortal, but I think that DirectX version used was changed in 0.2.3RC1. Older MP used older DirectX and had no problems. When DVD is played, I see the initial language menu and warning for copy protection (I guess these are just jpg-images), but when movie starts, I get only audio. I have experienced few time problems watching DVB-T TV-programs when TV image gets stuck, but audio is ok. Perhaps same problem as with DVD playback?? So, question to other people having DVD playback problems: Do you have ATI graphics card? ---------------- I went nad installed Ati Radeon Omega drivers 3.8.252 in order to resolve this playback problem. Perhaps it fixed some or not, however I noticed that if I get this problem (blank screen but audio), I can get around it by stopping and then continuing the play. So pressing stop and then going back to play DVD and select yes to continue. Then the video works fine. Whatever the problem is here, it seems like somthing that could be fixed. [/QUOTE]
