Yep that worked, but better still I upped the memory on graphics chip from 32MB to 64MB that seems to have resolved the issue. Sorry this wasnt really a windowblinds issue, but thanks for your help
and again i stand corrected, it seems to be any video format that will not play not just avi format, sorry
I was incorrect earlier, even when excluding the application it still will not playback, only sound and a pink screen.
I tried and tested media player, vlc, winamp all had problems. It also only appears to be AVI video format(divx, xvid) I played an mpeg1 vcd and it played back without any problems.
Thanks Neil, yep excluding the application works perfectly and as you said, it does appear to be the per pixel skins and applications using overlays. I experimented with a few others with better results. I dont use any codec packs, mine all come from the original source. divx, xvid and any from microsoft work fine for me, otherwise you get problems when transcoding.
can anyone explain why video playback doesnt work with windowblinds, currently using the trial version and video playback will not work unless windowblinds is unloaded
Hi, Im currently using the trial version of windowblinds 5. There seems to be a bug in which it will not allow playback of films. I read somewhere on here that there is a conflict with divx, could someone clarify that this is true. I have tested this with a variety of video formats. Video playback is fine when windowvlinds is unloaded.

I cant believe some of the comments on this forum. i d/l the crack version and yes it regularly crashed my explorer and eventually wouldnt start. Tough sh*t, thats my problem as it is your own problem if you installed the crack version. Dont get me wrong im always up for a freebie, wether it be a crack version, open source, freeware, shareware, blah blah. Unfortunately this software isnt and I can appreciate why. After an uninstall and thorough clean of registry all is okay now and as soon
Thats brilliant, all i need to know, makes me chuckle, you should make a few more bucks now out of this, I think the majority of people would agree its worth spending some cash on this software. I can see the support is good is too. Will purchase asap. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/sd_com/smiles/Congrats.gif" border=0 ALIGN="ab

I recently installed a crack version of this and experienced explorer crashing on occassions plus few other problems. Could you clarify before I purchase this software, that this is a problem with just the warez version and not the full version. Thanks
