Just today a new phenomenon has started on my install.
I'm using Cyberlink codecs using Overlay Manager (the only way to get smooth playback for me) so I can't catch this with a screenshot, but when playing video and I hit pause or FF/REW, the image appears to have a grainy mask laid on top of it. This only accompanies the OSD and goes away the instant it's cleared.
To me, it looks like an image with transparency that has a mesh of pixels in it that AREN'T transparent. Switching to VMR makes it go away, but that's just a test not a solution, because VMR makes my video jittery & unwatchable.
This wasn't happening before, and I can't find what might have changed to cause it.
I'm running 97.13 with a Hauppauge PVR500MCE.
EDIT: From the Waste-of-Bandwidth Department.... I fixed it. My color depth had been changed to 16-bit. Changing it back to 32-bit fixed the glitch.
