Regarding PowerDVD Ultra 3730 under vista sp1. ATI 3870 graphics card with Catalyst 8.3 (same with 8.2).

I can play DVDs fine under media player, but not under powerdvd ultra. Its almost like powerdvd gives me a frame by frame view (extremly choppy).

Ive tried turning off and on HW acceleration, changing deinterlace settings and so on, it didnt help at all.

Anyone got a clue?

thx in advance.

Try changing your audio settings. I know this seems unlikely but I have experienced the same problem when I set to "Use SPDIF", and when I set to e.g. "2 Speaker", it plays smoothly

Setting it to speakers and using analog cabling solves the problem.

But why the heck will spdif cause a stuttering picture? It worked fine in earlier versions (but since 3730 it stopped working). Other applications work fine with spdif.
