Really? and it doesn't just quit back to the menu after you've past that point, 30 seconds later?
If I start playback at the beginning of the file, or further in, it will still quit back to menu...and some times it doesn't happen at all, but plays fine (sometimes this will be after a few restarts of XBMC).

I have the same problem, a 720p mkv file only plays for 30 secs, the file is local on the computer, and i have the issue with SD files over samba.
weird thing is if I try to load the same 720p mkv over the network I can play it correctly.

I'm also getting this problem, though it's rare.
I can mention that I've had it happen on the same file once when I started watching it and then again when I resumed it from the position I stopped it at. Both times it happened after approximately 30 seconds of play.
After the second time I had to start the file from the start again and skip to just before it stopped. It played through that section fine, so it wouldn't seem to be related to any sort of encoding issue.
If I get a chance I'll try to get some logs next time it happens.
PS I found a possibly related thread with the same issue in XBMC for XBox, so this may be a common problem, not just Windows specific.

Same thing happens to me as well in file mode, doesn't happen often but it does happen. I just re-play the file again and FF through the stop point and it works. So although annoying, it happens rarely and isn't too big of a deal for me yet.

I'm getting the same issue with beta 2.
I'm running the new ffmpeg libs (from the sticky)
Only happens (so far) when in library mode.
Very rare in PM3 HD skin
Happens more often with complex skins e.g. medistream (0.95) and aeon (alpha 14).
Predominantly happens with 720/1080 .mkv files but does occsionally happen with .avi (divv and xvid).
On some occasions (pretty much always with .avi files) simply restarting results in continued playback but with .mkv this has never worked - stops in the same place again.
Does not happen with DVD playback, either from disc or from HDD (copied floder structure).
All files played from server share (have tried increasing cache size as per thread and no differnce)
System: Gigabyte 780G board (onboard graphics), 2GB RAM, Vista SP1 fully patched, ATI Catalyst 8.10
Hope this helps. I will continue experimenting and see whats in the logs.

I've set loglevel to 1 and just had a repeat of the problem.
Video playback of a standard divx in library mode using MediaStream skin. Stopped at 60 seconds (replayed the video to roughly where I remember it dropping out so may not be exact to the seond) playback. I have the default buffers set and am on a LAN connection playing files off a mapped network drive (since I can't get SMB working at all from Vista to Vista).
The last few lines of the log are available here:

Hope this helps.
Given a few people are experiencing this I thought I'd open a ticket on it. I hope I haven't jumped the gun there:

Sorry I didn't think to make a copy of the log. I will next time it happens, though I will remove it scanning my entire library.
