Okay list this will probably be difficult to diagnose as I do not have all
of the specs on the clients machine. but this is the basic problem. We
have compressed a 9 minute movie into a 320x240 mpeg-1. I am using the
Direct-Media Xtra from Tabuliero on the pc side. All the video has to do is
autoplay from his dell laptop's cd-rom drive so he can show it in his PR
meetings ( no buttons, interactivity, flash, animation, 3-d or anything else
of the sort). Just the video on black. According to him what is happening
is that a black Bar flashes and jumps around in the bottom half of the video
playback area, this happens through at least 2.5 minutes of the
presentation. He also notes that it is most severe in portions of the video
with a light background. I searched through Direct-L and Lingo-l's archives
and did not come across this specific problem. What I did find was that
some dell's apparently have difficulty with DirectShow if the
"graphics/hardware/acceleration" is enabled. Could this be the source of
the problem? I know that the video plays without incident on several of the
desktops here not to mention our Compaq Presario laptop with 32 mb of ram.
Any help or thoughts greatly appreciated.
