Anyone else having trouble with the windows media player locking up when changing to large screen? It locks up about 98% of the time. The entire screen turns black and the media player locks up. I have to hit the home button and disable WMP using the memory soft button. Sometimes softreset is just faster!
I don't have this problem using the core player. However, The WMP quality is much higher when it does work?? Any Ideas. I make my movies using DVD studio. They are usually about 500mb in size. Thanks Paul

WM Player sucks!!!!!! This is a common WM problem.....USE TCPMP.

You may be right but is there any fix out there??? When WM Player works 1% of the time at large screen it's freaking awesome! But 1% = almost never!! I'm beginning to like the TCPMP more and more because it works 100% of the time. However, it has issues too. For example the Brothers Grimm played great using AVI format and choppy with WMP. but Aliens of the Deep played better using WMP format on the TCPMP than AVI. The AVI audio was very choppy even on CD quality with this Movie??? So there you have it 2 movies playing better in different formats with the same player TCPMP but with different affects. At least TCPMP can play both formats!! Any ideas how to get the WM player up to speed too?? Paul

try encoding to xvid, that should solve all your problems with choppy video.
