help for newbie
 

sorry if it is very ovious this question... im new at this...
i have the bs player 0.8 and download an .avi movie a time ago and could watch it perfectly, but yesterday i wanted to see it and the image was lost... everything was black...
the sound, subtitles and everything is ok but everything i saw was black
hope somebody can help me, if i gave very little information please ask me for it because i am new with this
thankes a lot to everybody who helps here, you solve me lots of problems already

1st thing, have a look here:

(there are a few more options in the video preferences dialog box now so you can try even more thingies, but I haven't needed them till now)

quietseb, i change the overlay mode as you said and i can now see the movie, but there is a problem.... evrything is big and does not fit in my screen i can see a big nose or a big tree but i cant watch it normaly as before
sorry for disturbing... thank you please

some video cards have an overlay zoom feature.
maybe you should check that in your video card settings (display properties->settings->advanced etc)

quietseb, i trie changing the overlay zoom but it was worst so i got desperate and started changing everything and finally after changing the resolution from 800 x 640 to 640 x 400 everything was perfect as before...
i really dont know why it happened but im finally happy i can go and use it perfectly well
thank you very much for your help...
see you soon in a future problem...
