Hi Scott... Yes I have lots of ideas. While I have no idea what machine,
video card, OS, or DVD player software you are using. So I have to be
very generic here.
Video card driver might need to be updated
DirectX might need to be updated. (9.0c is the latest)
DVD Player application might not handle copy protected movies (PowerDVD
and WinDVD are okay)
It might be something else, but these are the first 3 things I would
check.
Cheers!
