F7 changes the aspect ratio.

You're problems are most likely caused by whatever divx/xvid decoder you've installed on your computer. Which one are you using?

ffdshow

GREAT App!!! I Love it....

Try a different decoder. NIC's xvid decoder or the official divx decoder do a good job.

GREAT App!!! I Love it....

Cheers.

I noticed in another post you're using a 800mhz celeron. This may have something to do with it as well. I wouldnt be using ffdshow with that CPU.

Yeah I've tried official divx, NIC's xvid, official xvid, and ffdshow..All look the same ..crappy choppy...They play perfect in VLC or WMP......

If they all look the say, I'm guessing the same decoder is being used each time. Take a look in gbpvr.exe-native.log. You'll see a section like this:

09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	Graph contains the following filters:
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - Default DirectSound Device
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - Video Renderer
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - MPEG Layer-3 Decoder
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - DivX Decoder Filter
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - AVI Splitter
09:45:30.421	VERBOSE	 - c:\MyVideos\divx\AD-Citroen_C4_Transformer.avi

Can you post the section from your log?

So try it with a few other xvid/divx decoder, make sure the the decoder is changing in the logs. If you dont fine one that works, then you're out of luck.

Also worth trying to switch from VMR to Overlay, since thats what Windows Media Player uses.

pressing f7 to change aspect sends computer into a loop...audio goes..but like the On screen guide type thing keeps going and coming back
