MediaPortal unresponsive in My Music (1 Viewer)

I have around 1700 songs stored on my harddrive, folder structure in the My Music directory is Artist>Album>Song (basically I just copied my iTunes library from my main PC over to the HTPC). When I select My Music in Media Portal, MP becomes unresponsive so I can't play any music or exit back to the main menu. I end up having to Alt+F4 and restarting MP and everything is fine (unless I go back to My Music). I have attached logs in the hope that someone can shed light on this problem.

see this thread https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/general-support-51/ati-690g-x1250-problems-29894/

The cause is by the 690G chipset and the FLIPY instruction to create reflections.

To quickly confirm you have the same problem, when the screen freezes do a couple of key strokes like esc and then do ALT&ENTER (this will alternate between full screen and windowed mode). You should then see that you keystrokes before we done. It will lock up again when viewing a page that has reflections implemented. This fault only occurs on XP and not VISTA.

There are some modified skins in the abovementioned thread that remove the reflections.

Thanks for that, I used the modified xml files for 2 of the skins I have and the problem seems to have disappeared. Funny but I don't really notice anything missing from the skins though...

it is mainly to do with the reflections of the coverart in my videos/my music. the cd/DVD surroundings already have that emedded into the jpg, but the flipy function adds a reflection of the individaul coverarts. It is just a cosmetic thing
