Power DVD 7 Deluxe

[Carl]

Hello all, I have the most recent ATI drivers for my X1900XT Crossfire
system. When I try to select the High Performance mode in PDVD, it always
crashes when trying to play a dvd. I also have AVIVO options enabled in the
PDVD menu. Could anyone offer help as to how i can get power dvd 7 running
with all the hardware processing enabled?

Try reading this article Carl. You need to enable AVIVO per this.

Have you tried Cat 7.1?

Evidently, it fixes an issue with WMV acceleration when using Crossfire.
Don't know if the two are related but it's worth a shot.

Disable "Read it Clearly." This forces software processing even if the "Use
hardware acceleration" checkbox is ticked. It's also very very unstable.
