I thought I had found the problem but in reality I did not find the
problem. As it turns out more than half of my DVDs crash FC4. There is
nothing wrong w/the DVDs them selves for they playback just fine in my
Xbox. Howerver it seems that some DVDs are crashing my FC4 system
while others seem to play back just fine.
I have even uninstalled the totem & helix player that come w/FC4 &
installed the totem-xine & xine which work fine for the DVDs the do
not crash my system.
