Hey all,
So my MC ate itself. To the point where I had to reinstall the OS.

Running Windows 7 x64 RC1.
XBMC build 20222

Divx and DVDs play fine.
x264, not so much - I can hear the sound, but no picture - it stays on the menu. After about 20 seconds the sound starts skipping and looping. XBMC doesnt lock up, I can hit Stop and stop it.

Installed Haali splitter and they play fine in WMP.

Log is here: http://pastebin.com/f3348f008

Damned gremlin is going nuts in my house. (POTS lost dial tone, DVR HD ate itself, both mine and the wifes cells started dropping calls and locking up, and then my main mc puked all over itself. grrrr)

tried copying MSVCP71.DLL and MSVCR71.DLL to system32, no joy

Do you have upscaling on? If so turn it off.

from your post, i tried turning upscaling on and tinkering with the rendering method - none had any effect.
just upgraded to revision 20275, no effect.
