I'm experiencing the following problem with PDVD9: when playing BluRays (ISOs from hard disk), the video sometimes gets "stuck": a couple of frames are repeated in an endless loop (they seem to play backwards and forwards). The audio continues normally. It only seems to occur near chapter marks (e.g. when the chapter number changes), but not when I skip to the chapter. E.g. when I play the disc normally, the freeze occurs when the timeline reaches chapter x. I then need to stop the playback and restart it. When I now skip to chapter x (where it occurred), it will play fine. However, if I rewind a bit (by moving the timeline marker just a bit before the chapter mark), it will again freeze at the same chapter position.
It didn't happen with previous versions of PDVD and it doesn't happen with all ISOs (but with many!). I use Vista SP1 32bit, ATI 4670, Catalyst 9.2. I've also tried Windows 7 x64, Catalyst 9.3 and the problem is the same. An ATI 3450 does not show the problem, but I need the 4670 for 7.1 HDMI sound.
I've now tried an ATI 4350 and it shows the exact same problem! Obviously, all 4xxx cards are affected! Nobody else experiences this problem? That's hard to believe, because it happens on 2 different computers here, with 2 different OSes, 2 different cards. Should not be a software incompatibility issue either, because I tried various driver versions on clean systems.
Regards!
