Hi all.
I bought an Acer Revo (1GB, 160GB model) yesterday. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and then installed the latest XBMC for Linux.
For the most part it's now installed and working fine. However some videos simply refuse to play. I know there is nothing wrong with the files themselves as they play (albeit slowly) through vlc on the same box.
I haven't tried all my videos, but 2 examples are of my Battlestar mkv's and my Azumanga mkv's. Both show subtitles and have sound, but no video is displayed.
I have other high definition contect (BBC Planet Earth, mkv) which plays 100% perfectly.
I've tried numerous different video settings, always with the same result.
Any ideas? What other information do I need to give here?
