I know this phenomenon on some of our computers, mainly laptops, but also
some desktops. I can't offer a solution, but IMHO it's related to Media
player software and video card.

- Which media player software is installed on your machine? (Especially
WinDVD seems to cause problems.)
- Can the problem be solved if you turn down hardware acceleration?
- Does it occur with all video files or certain file formats?

Best regards,
Ute
