Overlay

I'm using InterVideo's WINDVD, and whenever I try to play
dvds program fail with overlay error. I have tried both
lowering resolution and deceasing colors to no avail. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Same problem for me. PowerDVD 5 does work though! I just installed the eval
version and was surprised.

Here's a message I just posted to dvd.software group:
