[QUOTE="Taipan, post: 33272, member: 11681"] I don’t believe that this problem has anything to do with MediaPortal, since the same problem occurs in Windows Media Player and in GraphEdit. But I am hoping that there is someone out there who can advise me… :) The problem is, that sometimes when I play a “wmv†video file, the image will have coloured dots or partial lines like this:- [img]http://cdupload.com/public/344/rally.jpg[/img] This is a particularly bad example, most times it is just the coloured dots that appear, and many “wmv†files will play just fine – no coloured dots or lines at all. I first noticed this with the My Trailers plugin, when watching a movie clip. Now, this is the weird thing – I have 2 other PCs running Windows XP Professional SP2 (same as my MediaPortal PC) and they do not display this behaviour at all!! :? So, I have been trying to figure out what is different about my MediaPortal PC that causes this problem, and the only things I can think of are:- 1. It’s an oddity with my ATI Radeon 9550 video card/drivers in the MediaPortal PC. I have installed the latest ATI drivers (5.13) and the problem is still the same. 2. The filter used to decode this image is corrupt or an old release. This is what it looks like in GraphEdit:- [img]http://cdupload.com/public/346/graphedit-1.jpg[/img] I am assuming that the culprit here is the DirectShow video filter “WMVideo Decoder DMO†– but I have no idea what the corresponding file is that contains that filter. The WMVideo Decoder DMO does not appear in the RadLight Filter Manager, but it appears to be a “DirectX Media Object†– hence the DMO in the name. Before I go through the hassle of swapping video cards around, I would like to eliminate the software side. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Can anyone throw some light on these DMO filters?
