I have an unusual problem that appears to affect dvd's only. It occurs if I'm viewing an actual dvd (with anydvd running on the system) or if I'm viewing a dvd that has been dumped to the hd using dvdfab. While watching a movie the movie will freeze at some random time and gbpvr needs to be manually killed to get out of it.
This behavior only seems to happen with dvd's, any other video formats I view on my system work fine and never crash.
I have set dvd's to play with a couple of different decoders to see if that was the issue and haven't really come to any conclusions on that. Combinations of purevideo or pdvd8 for the video decoders and ffdshow or mpa filter for the audio decoders give similar results, although it does seem like when using mpa as the audio decoder (passthrough) the crash occurs more quickly.
No other decoders should be in the way, as my directshow graphs show the simplest flow possible - the default microsoft navigator splits the signals to the video and audio filters I described above and those feed into the default video and directaudio outputs.
Anybody have any ideas on what might cause something like this?
