I've started noticing some problems when playing a rental DVD on my computer. I am using a somewhat older (3 years) cd/dvd drive (8x, TSST corp) on my new build, which has never given my any problems before. I've burned CDs and played many DVDs with no problem. I use Media Player to watch the DVDs. Recently, one DVD started giving me some trouble. The trailers and all play fine, but when I get 5 minutes into the feature the picture gets all pixelated and blurry. The sound continues with no problem. Could this be a hardware or software problem? I've checked and found I was running the most recent driver for my GPU and Optical drive. One solution would be to change the viewing software and use PowerDVD, but I want to have some confidence that will fix the problem before I throw down the money on it.
