Info button dosen't work on DivX files with a DVD Like menu

Just tested it with the Movie from the DivX Author site, there should be normally a timeline for the current chapter, or the whole movie.

PIN protected files show in preview

Hey all,

I saw this issue reported a while back with an early server version; it appears to have reappeared in the latest release. The preview images for videos are showing images from videos that are in PIN protected folders. I am not logged into the protected folders when this happens.

"Eigenes" should be changed to "Eigener"

German Translation: Über / "Anerkänntnise"

You should change this to something like "Credits" oder "Danksagung".
"Credits" is fine for germans too but Anerkääntnise is hyperwrong.

Long Files _Name: auto Scrolling

Gentlemen I think It would be fine if:

once the filename is long instead of showing just the beginning with ... at the end .. to make it scrolling once you have highlighted the file for .. let's say 1.5 or 2 seconds.

What yaa think? sometimes I have to click OK to see the real filename and back again

Crash in ntdll.dll when scanning wmv files

I have a directory of about 20 wmv files, and about 75% of the time when I scan the directory, the Divx Server crashes. Most of the time, it produces an error in App: DivxConnected.exe, ModName: ntdll.dll, but sometimes it will just crash and close the application with no error message at all. This is with the 1.0.0 Build: 29 software.

I have played around with adding/subtracting/dividing the filelist, and this problem is not caused by any specific file. For instance, if I move 1/2 of the files to a second directory, and then add/scan both directories, this bug does not occur.

I can easily reproduce this if you need more information, or If needed, I can zip up and share these files.

Some xvid videos show corruption

I reported this on the Connected Beta page awhile back, and the problem still occurs with the most recent firmware/server software:

I was playing through some videos, and found a couple of xvid encoded shows that display some nasty macroblock-graphical glitches anytime the scene pans. 99% sure this is some type of decoding issue with the Connected server/player, as the videos play back perfectly fine in Media Player or VLC.

I have uploaded an example movie to rapidshare in two parts, rar encoded. You can easily see the problem once the opening credits finish (about 2 minutes in). I have also attached a photo showing the problem. Let me know if there are any problems downloading or reproducing this issue. It seems to be limited to a small number of files, but the ones that are affected are unwatchable. I seem to recall there have been some modifications to the xvid encoder to compress animation files more effectively, I wonder if this is what is causing the problem?

Divx Connected Firmware Update UI Page - Extra junk character after "Divx Connected"

When the "Update Firmware" page appears, the title line "Divx Connected" has an extra square junk character next to it. See screenshot.

UPDATE: Yes, this is fixed with the 1.0.0-build-46 server and newest firmware.

Installing in Vmware Workstation - DivxConnected.exe has encountered a problem - Error in dcmaanger.dll

When I install the 1.20.0 server in a WindowsXP Virtual Machine (Workstation 6.x) I get an error in divxconnected.exe ModName dcmanager.dll. I can clear the error, it seems to finish the installation with no problems, and I am able to start the Divx Server as normal. This problem did not occur with 1.10.0 or earlier software. Screenshot of error attached.

UPDATE: This is fixed as of the 1.0.0-build-46 server software installer.
