Can't play certain DVD. Others work fine.

Postby EvanVolm » 26 Feb 2010 05:33

I can't seem to play a certain DVD. I recently got back the ability to watch DVD's on my computer, and tried it out last night. Se7en plays fine, as well as The Shining. However, The 2-disc edition of The Shining that came out in 2007 just won't play.

Just seems odd that I can play other DVD's, but not this one. It won't work in GOM, VLC or Media Player Classic either. Any suggestions?

edit: Apparently the second disc works just fine. :roll:

Can you browse disc content via Windows Explorer?

Yes, there are 2 folders: 'JACKET_P' and 'VIDEO_TS'

I had the same problem with 1.0.5. Downgrading to 1.0.3 solved it for me.
