I am trying to play an unencoded DVD rip in ISO format using dvdplayer. This is a file I've played 100 times or more with no issues. If I just play the ISO normally the CPU shoots to 100% and it's unplayable. When I enable "Full Codec Support for DVDPlayer" then it looks blocky and generally crappy. The problem does not happen when I use mplayer.
I updated to 3.5 beta 2 when this problem started occurring. I then upgraded to SVN 32683 and had the same problem. I'm wondering if it's the update to FFMPEG that is causing the problem.
Relevant pastebins:

Playing the video with Full Codec Support: http://pastebin.com/v5FJxg97
Help appreciated.

Re: Problem Playing ISO with SVN 32683
I need example files or else I can't help. (And please use the bugtracker
)

Re: Problem Playing ISO with SVN 32683
I have uploaded zimdba.zip to the ftp server. It contains an mpeg-2 stream that won't play and a debug log.
I didn't want to use the bugtracker because I didn't want to create a duplicate if this already exists.

Re: Problem Playing ISO with SVN 32683
this is fixed in svn. in the meantime, just enable "full codec support" as you mentioned (I didn't see any blockyness on my system though with that setting)
Re: Problem Playing ISO with SVN 32683
I installed the latest SVN build. The file DID play, but there was still a lot of pixellation or blockiness in the video. I ended up watching the video with mplayer again. I have a ton of mpeg-2 videos I'll see if I can find if it happens on all videos or just this set.BuZz wrote:this is fixed in svn. in the meantime, just enable "full codec support" as you mentioned (I didn't see any blockyness on my system though with that setting)
