[QUOTE="schmoppa, post: 174289, member: 55261"] OK. I went ahead and disabled the DX9 Exlusive mode, which prevented the issue I described (again, not a crash). However, now I am seeing tearing. Here's what's transpired (not sure if this is relevant). I wanted to play matroska (mkv) files, but this capability didn't seem to be native in MP. I installed Haali MatroskaSplitter and ffdshow. I was then able to play mkv files, which is when I noticed the tearing. I did some searching in the forums and it seems like turning off DX9 Exclusive mode has caused tearing for others. so... unfortunately, this DVR I built is for my parents, and while I find it pretty easy to quit out of the screen overlay issue I originally described, I don't know that I could get my parents to figure that out. Is there any other way to avoid the tearing OR the screen overlay issue? [/QUOTE]
