    After watching a trailer I end up with a black screen with MP freezed or something. Only way to recover control is Alt+F4 to close and restart MP. This seems to happen every time. Stopping playback has the same effect :( .

    i have a simmilar issue with avi`s that were recorded with my Canon Ixus I.
    i am getting a black screen when the avi is finished.
    watching other videos works.

    i will have a look if i get the same problem with MyTrailers when i get home.

    UPDATE:
    Try and push the "LiveTV" Button on your remote. You should be able to get away of the blackscreen

    i have tested it today with the release and the cvs. i can watch trailers without getting a blackscreen.

    could you try to press "LiveTV" when you get the black screen?

    Maybe it is one of the media keys like the ones that multimedia keyboards have. Anyway as soon as I have some time I will restore a clean install and start from zero to see if 0.2RC2 works better.

    This should be fixed some time ago in current CVS.

    Kind regards,
