[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1073675, member: 18896"] You need to update your skins to support the proper rating dialog, try Titan Extended otherwise it updates itself. Check if you are using LAV v0.61.1 (the latest version). They fixed a lot of stuff, for example 0.59 would crash MediaPortal to desktop on an AMD videocard under certain conditions, which is all fixed now. Also check your MediaInfo version on the 32-bit DLL that is bundled with MediaPortal, as this is also a 3rd party tool that is updated on a regular basis. For a more direct solution at your freeze problem, try to disable thumbnail generation in MediaPortal, because it causes concurrent access to the same file if you play it for the first time, that will cause the playback side to fight for access to the same codec, causing delays/stutter/jerks which finish the moment the other process is done. MediaPortal 1.7 fixes even more on this by ensuring MediaInfo is only done once before playback to obtain the info required to adjust dynamic refresh rates and such, so you could try the Pre-release if it botheres you a lot and still happens after you disable thumbnail generation. For any deeper help you will have to provide debug verbosity enabled log files that contain a recreation of the problem, so they can reveal what exactly is going wrong for you. [/QUOTE]
