The Gom player is more or less a requirement for players/fans of StarCraft 2 if they wish to watch the GSL/GSTL live. Supposedly VLC can do it with a little trickery but it's a major hassle.

google a piece of software called "whocrashed" and run that, it should tell you what is causing the problem. It might be related to GOM, but not caused by it.

i`ll check that,thx . well , as i said before , never had any bsod , only while using gom player , so it has to be something with it

now i installed some older graphic drivers , to see if bsod keeps coming again

i deleted k-lite today after i installed older graphic drivers , and since then i watched two movies , and had no issues , no bsod . so it might be graphic drivers or klite

@remixedat , PalletTown - right now installed CCCP , i`ll se if there will be any more issues

@furyshinobi - its not about SC2 streams , altough i watch them from time to time . the thing is , gom is the only player playing all kind of videos , with different encoding , while with others i had playback issues with some files , and some of them wont read subtitles

thx for your suggestions everyone :)

      I bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
