I'm using WinDVD Platinum (build 4.5.11.0),

the DVD menu is not played well.


Anyone got the same problem like me ?


Thank you.

YES! It hangs on several occasions, and it's buggy when doing chapter jumping etc. I had WinDVD 4 Plus, and everything was extremely stable and fast. Now I'm struggling with multiple hangups to watch a movie. That sucks.. Might have to go back to WinDVD 4.. Sigh..

@Mercer,


Thank you for the confirmation,

I can confirm too that the WinDVD 4 (not platinum) is working very well on my machine.

The new version is full of bugs. Huge step backward. Better stick with WDVD4 plus.

Menus are working fine here, just be patient, I am sure like the other companies they are monitoring these forums.

....same problem here.

BTW is the same one I had before the upgrade of my Terratec drivers.

Bad news even if u want to roll back to old windvd 4.

I did, but uninstall of Windvd platinum seems to damage something and windvd 4 didn't work anymore either.

So I take advantage of XP restore utility and I came back to the previous situation.

I made a fresh new installation of windvd 4.0 and seems a go.

I made a new restore point..and I tried "for fun" to reinstall Platinum again.

Even if Intervideo claims that the two version can lay together on the same pc when u install platinum windvd 4 doesn't start anymore. I found out that disabling Hardware acceleration on platinum solved my problems of jerky video and blocking when change chapter( I think..change type of audio out from ds to dd or dts..) and since IMHO the PQ of platinum without HA is slighty better than windvd 4 with HA on, I stopped my tests here.

Well, after getting confirmation here that it wasn't only me that was having these problems I went ahead and reinstalled WinDVD 4, now thinks are back to it's normal stable (fairly) self..


I still get the problem with WinDVD not being able to autoswitch between 16:9 and 4:3 sources (e.g. when jumping from a 4:3 menu, to a 16:9 movie). It kindof stays in 4:3 mode.. Anyone else experience this?
