XBMC4Xbox

Hello!

I've run into a problem with DVD playback.
Today I received a copy of "Lemony Snicket's A series of unfortunate events Full Screen Collection Region 1 DVD9".
Tried playing it on my v1.6 PAL Xbox and as soon as it started playing it was very pixelated . Like a heavily compressed divx file.
I've tried switching from hardware rendering to "highquality v2" and that didn't help at all.
I've tried switching from DVDPlayer to MPlayer but that just made xbmc freeze upon attempting to play the dvd.
How do you make it play normally, without pixelation?

Try DVDX2 for DVD playback.

Thanks, I have DVD Region X, and the movie plays perfectly fine there. But I want to make XBMC work properly.

What are your settings on the Video Settings / playback page ?

Turn off the fast mode

DVDPlayer fast mode for MPEG2/MPEG4/H264
Allow these codecs to do non spec compliant speedup tricks. May improve performance slightly, but could possibly incur quality loss.

You probably don't want full codec support on either. It's worth checking the documentation before enabling stuff

Thanks, I'll try.

EDIT:
That helped. Thanks a lot.
