Hello
Can anybody give me a hint why GEM does stop my machine during playing an .avi? the same file is played with pidip without any problems.
you mean "stop" like "full freeze, have to plug the power-cord"?
have a look at the used video decoding libraries; probably one of them is making troubles; afaik pdp (and/or pidip) use only libquicktime (but might be totatlly wrong here...) whereas Gem also uses libavifile and libmpeg3... if one of these libs makes troubles _before_ Gem tries libquicktime then you might get the problems you are experiencing.
