    WTF? Ive no idea what's going on but when i play AVi's the video is flipped upside down and now its decided it wants to play it inside out too so its an upside down mirror image!?

    W-T-F is going on?? Im using the same drivers for my matrox G550 i always have, but ive only recently started having this problem and i dunno whats triggered it. It also uses massive amounts of CPU flipping the video too :( HELP!!!

    A mate of mine has the same problem. His was caused by installing dodgy Divx codexs. He's still not fixed it yet.

    Cool error. :p

    The obvious solution would be to turn your monitor upside down and view the movies in a mirror....

    Official DivX ?

    Sir, DivX is a hacked up version of the Microsoft MPEG4 codec. It can't be official. :D

    But yes, he is correct, knackered codecs are the cause of your problems. Either errors from installations, bad files, or the codecs you got are poorly made.

    a specific codec causes this. Do a custom nero install and select the flip screen codec thingy. DO NOT install all of nemo, its bound to screw something else up :p
