Aaron, I am using Totem movie player 3.30.2. I use the same software regardless of video or DVD. The box has been running fine for about a year. I have to work tomorrow, but I will make it a point to try running a live cd and see what happens. Thanks, Evan<br>

</div>My first guess is that the hardware system is not generating<br>
a reference clock signal expected by the media software.<br>
<br>
What is your media player?<br>
<br>
Same software for video and DVD playback?<br>
<br>
Is this something that just came up on a previously working<br>
box or is this the first time you've been trying to play video<br>
on this install?<br>
<br>
A quick test to narrow down to a software or hardware<br>
issue would be to boot to a Live CD of a different distro<br>
and try to play video with it. See if a different distro /<br>
media player software exhibits the same problem.<br>
<br>
HTH!<br>
peace<br>

</div>But I have a lot of computer media experience, so it<br>
should all work out! :-)<br>
