I have this problem that my Windows Media Player (9.0)
stops after 11-12 seconds on some files. Always the same movies.
Just the video, the sound continues ok. I'ts always mpg-files.
But other mpg-files or video-files works ok.
I have XP and newest update of WMP 9.0.
Have tried all sizes of screen (full, small) but the picture freezes
after 12 seconds.
Any sugestions what the problem can be?

}Same here, I never got an answer. Mine started after I deleted the
}shmedia.dll reg key.

I had the same problem on my XP system and found it was the Divx codec.
Seems certain older codecs will play fine for a few seconds then the screen
will freeze with the audio still working. This happened when the video was
in a newer Divx codec than I had installed on my computer. Try updating the
Divx codec to the latest version (www.divx.com) and see if it fixes your
problem.

Later,
Dave
