As the title states, I can't playback DVD movies on my DVD drive. It's a lite-on CDRW/DVD combo drive. The model is this one. Maybe someone can help me figure this out.
Here's the problem. I can run DVD movies, but after 5-15 minutes (it varies), the video will crawl to a halt, and then WMP (or PowerDVD) will crash. I basically have to restart the video and use scene selection half a dozen times to finish watching a movie.
Any thoughts? I'm fairly stumped at the moment. I'm starting to wonder if it's this Lite-on model in general, as two of my friends have the same exact setup as me, but with different DVD drives, and they watch movies flawlessly all the time. Are there any video codecs that I'm missing or that may need updating? I appreciate any help anyone can give.
