Eh it might be because you are playing a dvd from a region thats not allowed on your DVD drive. Any idea if your dvd is region free?

Is it just this one "movie"? What filetype or is it a DVD?
Try g-spot to identify the codec?

finally got it sorted, dicked around with the settings to see if anything would work, "overlay video output" & "window decorations" were ticked so turned them off, and picture is back, thank god. cheers for yer input people.
