recently having issues using gom player causing bsod 2 or 3 times during the movie . never had any bsod , only while watching movies using gom . cant find any possible solution to fix it , maybe someone had that issue and managed to resolve it

also , restarting after bsod causes loss of usb controller drivers , and i have to reinstall them again everytime , its really annoying

using hp probook 4710s with windows 7 ultimate x64

cheers

vlc player wouldent do the job then? the only reason i see people useing this "gom player" is to play dodgy encded movies that will

only play with that player.

id recomend you uninstall it and restore to a previous point, you have made a restore point right?

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 :)

    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By WaltC · Posted

      The problem of course is simply that government does not always know best. My point is that agency is taken away from the EU consumer in these cases. I'm sorry, but I do not believe that governments (politicians) are inherently good, and "looking out for me." Primarily they look to themselves and their own personal desires first, foremost, and always. When the EU or the DOJ fines these companies, claiming to "represent the welfare of the consumer," how much of these billion-dollar judgments are handed to the consumers they claim to represent? Not even a dollar, as I've seen. Yet the EUC lawyers who are paid to sit around and dream up these suits make huge commissions on the fines the EUC adjudicates, which is an ironclad fact I hope everyone is aware of. It's also rank corruption, of course, but that's another topic. Last, when the EU inflicts these judgments, or the DOJ, take your pick, the costs are bundled right along in the cost of the goods and services these companies provide the consumers they are "looking out for." If you are someone who believes his government is his savior then you have my condolences. I think Apple is right here, because the whole scheme of consumer choice is that consumers pick and choose among the products companies offer. Microsoft Windows is more compatible with third party software and hardware than any desktop OS on Earth, which is my sole reason for choosing it. Just because the EUC forces companies do certain things it knows the companies do not want to do, "or else", has no bearing on consumer benefit. This Siri thing is almost idiotic it's so infantile. But this is what the EUC does when the EU in Brussels becomes cash-strapped and needs a big infusion of cash. Some people get upset by "big companies" but it's the opposite when governments dwarf the size and scope of these companies, which is so obvious it hurts.... I mean you can't honestly believe that forcing Apple to do things with Siri it has its own reasons to decline is something that "opens up" Apple, do you? Say it aint' so...

      Is it still super slow or has it improved on that area?

      There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.
