I must have made blunder and installed something which broke my XBMC installation.
So i reinstalled XBMC and the visual c++ runtime. Made sure my DirectX was updated.

But the problem persists. Some movies it plays without problem, but with other movies it keeps "waiting" for about 90 seconds before it says that:

"One or more objects failed to play. Open log file for details" (translated)

Debug log:

Im running Windows 7 64-bit.

Anybody got any suggestions?

I'd guess the relevant log entries are:

Code:

There's a 30 second gap after "CDVDDemuxFFmpeg::Open - av_find_stream_info starting". If you were playing this file across the network I'd say it was a network error, but since the file is on the hard disk it looks more like corruption in the file. Does the file play in VLC?
