Hello all. I did a search and came up with a few similar topics but they were a few months old. I figured it'd be better to start up a new, more recent topic. (IMG:
style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Using XBMC 2006-10-03 T3CH1.) I've been having hit-or-miss problems playing .flv video in XBMC. Some work fine, some don't work at all. With mplayer as the default I noticed that some videos played fine. Others, when selected, simply did nothing (other than play the 'click' sound effect in XBMC).
2.) Through reading the forums I saw some suggested using the white button to select "Play with..." and then "DVDPlayer." In doing that I found that the menu screen froze but I could hear audio for about 35-40 seconds before complete freezing. Had to manually reboot machine.
3.) Decided to upgrade to most recent release version for testing.
Using XBMC 2006-10-15 T3CH4.) Witht he same video file the video still doesn't play with mplayer default. Trying DVDPlayer a black screen appeared. No video. Only audio. I could move around using the D-pad for about 20 seconds before the system froze again.
5.) In debug mode I got the following errors:
Early in the file:

That last line repeated over 300 times.
Any ideas what may be the issue here? I have the complete log file available if anyone is interested in checking it out. This is happening with multiple FLV files (while others play okay using mplayer).
Thanks in advance for any help!
