Here how it goes.
I just recently built myself a new HTPC and I have inside the following:
AMD Athlon II X2 240e
Gigabyte GA-MA770 UD3
Sapphire Radeon HD5750 Vapor-X
Mushkin 2x2GB DDR2
HDD 250Gb
PSU Cooler Master 500W
Everything is running on Windows 7, all updates, DX updated, latest Catalayst drivers 10-03.
All is working well and system is stable. I have to mention that XBMC is working well, all videos are playing well like mkv, avi. Original DVDs inserted into the DVD-RW unit are also playing without a problem. There is only one very strange problem with DVD's that are ripped to disk.
When I press play on the DVD, it start to play normally and it goes through these introduction clips and there comes to the root menu of the movie without a problem. There I can select PLAY movie, PLAY individual scenes etc. Now if I press PLAY movie, the picture goes black, OSD is working, sound is playing, I can also go forward, but problem is that picture stays black.
What is very strange is this. Now I press stop the video then I exit XBMC and re-enter again and then I press play on that very same DVD rip and I select RESUME FROM THE POSITION that I stopped watching it and now everything is well video picture is normal and I can watch the movie.
It is also normal if I start to watch from individual selection of scenes it will start normally without black screen.
Otherwise the same DVD rips are playing without a problem in PowerDVD and also on my XboX XBMC.
I tried to uninstall XBMC and to do a fresh install of it and it did not helped me. What else can I do? Could someone please help me here with this very strange problem?
Your help is very much appreciated, tnx!
bye, d.
