All DivX-Files played in b/w

[jkontny]

Hello there!
I've got the problem, that every DivX-file, I play in the windowed- or fullscreen-interface of BTV 3.4(899) appears in black and white.
Playing the same file on the same computer with the win-mediaplayer or WinDVD shows normal colors!
It doesn't matter wether the files are "showsqeezed" or for example DVDx-outputs.
But Live-TV or MPEG-Files are played with colors!
Can anybody help me?!?

Couple questions…

Does live tv work properly?
Does this happen if you recompress to a different file format?

I see you updated your post as I was typing mine…

I’m not sure but I think this is an issue related to the pal/ntsc settings. Try rerunning the setup wizard and making sure you select a country other than the united states.

I'll try it!
Thanx

I checked th country code: its 49 for germany and the format is PAL_D. LiveTV works and is colored!
Any other hints?!?

I fixed the problem by using not the "original" Graphics-driver that is recommended from Shuttle (I use a XPC Sb61G2, Intel 865G, onboard graphic), but the latest driver from the Intel website!
Now everything works!!
