I am getting an increasings more common problem occuring within video library.
I have several folders each with many avi files, mostly xvid and i am finding that when i select them from the menu there is a moment of disk activity and then nothing happens. I can move up and down the file list again.
I can choose a different file and the same thing happens. If i got to the pc where these files are (they are on a share) and just copy one of these files using explorer so there is somefile.avi and copy of somefile.avi then the copy will play fine. I deduce from this that the file is not corrupt, its just gbpvr doesnt want to play it at that time. Within gbpvr i cannot delete the original file - it is as if there is a lock on it somehow but i can delete it form the host pc.
Any ideas?
