1) name of DVD / downloadlink 2) resolution of DVD 3) software used (DVPlayer) 4) settings used
This makes it compareable to other systems. As for me, I can still not even play one DVD in full HD on my X1000. But yes, this might be due to havin comercial DVD`s etc.
I don^t have three DVD players inside my X1000. I play it from harddisk. The files are from the original DVD^s but without any copy protection. I have removed them with A..DVD ;)

I think there must be something wrong with your X1000, as it is more than powerful enough to play it (it's only on something like a Sam440 where that might be a problem).
It could be your DVD drive isn't entirely complaint with specifications, and that is causing probles for DVPlayer. I suggest buying a LiteOn DVD drive to replace it, if you can.
53.1 had some tricks enabled which are now disabled by default since it might cause issues on certain cases.
You can try to enable them with:
shell> setenv AVCODEC_TRICKS 1
Note however, this may or may not is the reason, there were new API functions on the last core which to make them backward compatible with our lib we had to implement some wrapper on top of it.
@ChrisH I copied VOB files etc. to Harddrive, and yes it works with new avcodec.library. However, I am getting sort of "Interlace" stripes when the person moves fast (X1000 first contact).
DVPlayer doesn't have de-interlacing AFAIK, but I don't notice the problem when a little away from the monitor. (Plus de-interlacing is very hard to get right - at least I had big problems on *Windows* getting a result that didn't look low-res!)
@diegocr (or whoever knows the answer) Will this library add support for any new audio/video codecs to DVPlayer, or does that require DVPlayer to be updated? (I realise it won't magically start supporting new container file formats like MKV.) Any examples of common ones (that I might have heard of) which now work in DVPlayer?
What other benefits should the library provide? Presumably DVD playback won't be any more or less compatible? Just maybe speed improvements? And no need to install external codecs?
He's asking for codecs, and indeed DvP does *not* needs to be updated for more of them to be supported/playable.
If we talk about containers, that's another history though. If you have a 90s MPEG-1 stream embed into a MKV file DvP will not be able to play it and therefore it'll need to be updated, but just to support new containers such as MP4 or MKV.
I need to setup a site where to place updates and all other files - if you can't wait, send me an email and i'll prepare something useable to send you back.
