Default BS.Player keeps freezing on Vista (30 Oct 2008)
Please help me, I'm going crazy. I'm using BS.Player 2.32 with K-lite Mega Codec Pack on Windows Vista. I can play any video file I want with BS.Player but when it ends the application just freezes. I'm sick of going to Task Manager to terminate the application anytime a video ends. Please tell me, is there anything wrong with codecs? The setup of 2.32 checked the codecs and I have them all. If I can't find any solution, I'm gonna have to go back to version 2.28.

I can also confirm a lot of freezes with the last build but on XP. It may be related to BSPlayer or to codecs. I am still tracking the cause.

Mine is Vista SP1. Rendering mode is "Internal renderer DirectDraw Surface". Is this compatible with Vista? What rendering mode should I switch to? (I don't wanna lose the Aero while I'm watching)

For Vista, best is EVR mode.

I do have the same problems with the freeze at the end of a movie. I'm on XP SP3 and use different codecs as buraq01. The problem is releated to the actual user account rights. In short: using admin rights = no freeze at all. Limited user = freezes always at the end of a .mkv movie. The movie must be of a certain size say >1GB = some HD TV shows will do. And you need to sit trough the whole thing. Just ctrl-j to the end will not produce the hang. This happens even if you install bsp into %appdata% (installation option) or give write permission to the 3 files bsp usually writes to.

Default Same problem
Same problem, but on XP SP3, so it is not related to Vista only. It freezes at the end of the film, when it ends and I have to use Task manager to close Bsplayer, which already appears at "Not responding". Is there any workaround?
And yes, I do have admin rights on the system. I alse have K-lite Mega Codecs Pack installed and the 2.32 build 975 version of BSPLayer.

EVR mode can be used under Windows Vista. For that, you must go to options -> preferences -> video and on the right side you have a TAB named video rendering. There you can select EVR.

I have the same issue. Xp Sp3 here, using internal renderer RGB mode.
To add a little more information, this bug appeared after upgrading from version 2.30 970.
If I downgrade to it again, the bug disappear, but any newer version will have it (I tested them all).

So.. no news about this?
(adding more information, the only codecs I installed are CCCP and the problem is still there with version 2.43 pro)

Edit: tried replacing Haali with Gabest splitter, but the bug is still there.

(The most annoying part of this bug this is that it also disables the screen saver when bsplayer freezes)

By the way, are the developers aware of this bug?
It would be nice to have some official reply.

i have been watching this thread for quite some time now. I am using version 2.52, build 1030 and i am getting the same error. Not all the time, but the majority of times. After having to forcely kill the app, the next time I run it, the subtitles font size changes. This only happens when using Internal Renderer DirectDraw surface. I am using that rendering method because I like how the text looks (HUD, subtitles) and the fact that I can move the subtitles in the black bar (i can't seem to figure out how the fuck do i move them in black bar with other rendering methods).

i already started using other apps on other machines because of this problem.

also, w7 ultimate, 32bits, xp codec pack

XP codec pack ??
Anyhow: If I'm informed correctly best "Rendering mode" for w7 is EVR.
(rightclick >) Options > Preferences > Video > [Video rendering]
Further: did you try "Use new subtitle parser/renderer " respectively "Enable drawing subtitles under image with EVR renderer"?
(rightclick >) Options > Preferences > Subtitles [Subtitle properties]

P.S.: Build 1031 is out already.

Well, thanks for the alternative. It works. But I still need a solution.
