Upsidedown OGM and crash

[drthmik]

Ok
Here's my Problem
I have a bunch of OGM files I've been wanting to play so I DLed the BSplayer to play them
however
when I try to play them the picture is upside down and then after a few seconds my computer tells me that the program has performed an ilegal operation and will be shut down
can anyone help me out?

the comp is running win98
I installed the OGG the DivX and the Xvid Codecs already

Hmmm.... wasn't getting image upside down something that happened long time ago with old movies when using old codecs? Doh... I don't remember now.

Be sure to install the latest divx5, xvid by Koepi and oggds.
In XVid decoder preferenced you have a box called "flip video", try changing that.
Are you using ffdshow? (ffdshow should also have something called "flip video" or something)

What the...
Why I'm writing this...
Use search!!!

Thanks for the help
I got the newest Codecs and it fixed those two problems

BUT
now there's a new one
there is a green static that covers the screen turning the picture weird (as in strange colors)
I've tried searching for "green static" and all I get is a bunch of topics that have nothing to do with my problem

[Garet_Jax]

Do you have installed ffdshow? If you do, uninstall it.

Does it happen for all movies/some movies/one movie?
Does it covers whole screen or just a part of it?
Does it appears all the time in movie, or just for some time?
Does it move? O_O
(I KNOW that static = not moving, but who knows what this static may do...)

[drthmik]

I don't have ffdshow installed

It happens with every OGM file and AVI file I've played but not the MPG files I haven't tried any other file types

it covers the whole screen

it appears all of the time

yes it moves
It's like the staticy "snow" on tvs
except green

I've also noticed that the video doesn't keep up with the audio on the files that get the static

[Garet_Jax]

get this player:
http://www.radwan.pl/vplayer/ftp/vplayer_06e.zip
and run those movies with this player.
When you do that, do you still experience the problem?

If you don't then go to BSplayer preferences to "video" then "video rendering" section, and try selecting different modes (after selecting mode, close and open movie).

If you do then uninstall every codec you ever installed, and install only:
DivX
XviD
AC3 filter
Matroska Splitter
OGG filter
VSFilter
You can find details and links here:

When I go to Preferences there is a FFDshow option under the divx and xvid sections
however I cannot find it on my system and I can't change anything in the BSplayer preferences either
does that mean anything?

as for the codecs I've only ever installed Xvid, Divx and the OGG codecs and nothing else should I try installing the other three firts or reinstall those three too?

To preferences of what program?

Have you tried playing with other player?

[drthmik]

the Preferences of the BSplayer

and Yes the other player worked and there was no static
but the video still lagged behind the audio
and I couldn't get subtitles and the other audio track to play
but it looked fin otherwise

[Garet_Jax]

yes, yes, I didn't posted the link to VPlayer so you should use it, it was just for testing ^^

Maybe you should unistall BSPlayer and install it again (latest version)?

[drthmik]

I'm sorry to say the reinstallation didn't change anything
I still get green static for OGM and AVI files

[adicoto]

1. What version of DirectX do you have on your computer ?
2. When open a movie with static, if you go to options->filters what are the filters listed there ? I'll put a bet on FFDshow. :x

[drthmik]

Direct X 9

Defalt Directsound
EQ <----this is gray
DivX Decoder
Vorbis Decoder
Ogg Splitter

[Garet_Jax]

? Disable EQ in BSplayer (preferences --> equalizer). ?

When you click on DivX Decoder or Vorbis Decoder or Ogg Splitter in filters, what do you see? (screenshot)

[adicoto]

In DivX options is it the option "support generic MPEG4" enabled ?

[drthmik]

I tried disabling EQ it didn't change anything
Mpeg4 is enabled

Oh MAN
getting Screenshots off of that computer would be WAY too much work
so...
this is what's enabled

DivX

Post Prossesing
Partial Auto Post-Pros Adjust
Film effect is set in the middle

Quality
Smooth playback
Yuv extended mode
Generic Mpeg4

Vorbis Decoder

Properties
Integer 16bit

Ogg splitter

Properties
Show tray icon
always search to keyframe

[adicoto]

In DivX options disable support generic MPEG4. It is possible that the file to be encoded with XviD codec and to generate this problem.
EQ don't have anything to do with that, leave it enabled.

[drthmik]

Sweet!
That did it
Thanks for all the help!
I really Apriciate it

do you have any sugestions on how to get the video to keep up with the sound?

[adicoto]

Something about your hardware configuration, please.
CPU, RAM, Videocard should be good.
