Well, rolled back to 2007-09-02, tried brushed metal, no video. it just flashes a black screen (you can see it trying to start) and the slider jumps hard right and stays there when i try an Mpeg file and dvd palyback just does nothing. If i click next when I try to run a dvd file (it's on my hard drive), it will play the next chapter of the dvd but willnot start at the index.
same behaviour in the newest rr also. Does it in void, and does it in brushed metal.
Reregistered the dll's and windows codecs, I also have tried ffdshow, no dice.
I'm baffled............
Maybe I'll have a look into rr.exe and see what's there, but to be honest, that's well above my skill level unless there's something obvious.
Thanks for the suggestions...............

WAHOO!
I finally got it working properly.
Audio, Video, DVD and all!
I did a clean install from the ground up on the carpc (formated hard disc, xp, drivers, latest rr and then void 3.0) and everything works after the usual config workup. The only thing that is still a little funny is it will only play a dvd from the drive and not when ripped to a folder on the hard drive. But I can sort that out later. And if I can't, I can live with it.
Not sure what fixed it overall, but good ol' windows fresh install is all I can figure. Maybe a messed up driver or corrupt dll file. Meh, whatever.
Still not workng on my laptop where I do the developement stuff, but who cares? It works on the carpc. That's all that matters..........
Now I can finally get on with installing the hardware into the car properly.
