Subject: MARGI - Was: [LIB] Lib list server belly up?

From: "Alan Middleton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

If I try either an ISO mounted with DaemonTools ripped from a region 2 dvd, or opening a vob file direct from the hard disk the libretto just displays a black window and doesn't do much else (hard disk light is permanently on).<

I'm running a libretto 110 with 32Mb of ram<<<<<<<!!!!

32MB of RAM??? You don't have the 32MB expansion card to bring the 110 up to 64MB RAM? I'd say that'd probably be the problem. I got the Margi working in both W2K and W98SE with only installing the drivers that either you, Avi, or someone else pointed out some time back now. The hardest part of the process was finding the card I buried in my storage unit after I gave up on it ages ago.

I do have to say though... the darned thing is >not< the most stable thing running on the 110. It's like playing roulette each time I play a video. Sometimes it'll play for and hour or more. At other times it'll lock up 2-3 times in an hour. I haven't really been keeping tabs on the odds though. I must say though, it is pretty cool to be playing MPEG-2 video on the 110.

and I've slipstreamed the install to remove IE and include service pack 4 - http://home.hccnet.nl/pr.nienhuis/Windows.html#Win2K and carried out the tweaks highlighted on the page. Margi DVD to Go player has insisted I run at 1024 x 768 to even get a play window up.<

It may just be the libretto hasn't got the processing power / memory for this, but I recalled Matt saying he'd opened vob's direct from the hard disk so hoped there was some insight here.<

Kind Regards,

Alan.
