    I have an issue playing DVDs inside MediaCenter on my E1505. When I'm watching a movie, and I pause, or fast forward, or anything that brings up the bar at the bottom of the movie, when I unpause, etc. it leaves a small line at the bottom of my movie. This line irritates me to no end, and the only way to get rid of it is to get out of the movie, and into MediaCenter, then back into the movie again. Does anyone have any idea why this would happen, or how to fix it?

    I have no idea what it is. Can you take a screenshot and post it. ALso try updating all your video drivers and see if that works.

    Well, I didn't figure it out, but I did decide to get DVDs to play through PowerDVD without MediaCenter anyway.
