hilloki Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Do you have a SSE2 or SSE3 processor? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7846-dvd-player-crashed-on-disk-insert/#findComment-49190 Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_dingman Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 SSE2. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7846-dvd-player-crashed-on-disk-insert/#findComment-49301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
p3n5t3r Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 You need the patch maxxuss made. And if I am not mistaken, your video card has to be fully supported too. I for instance, can't play DVDs on my geforce 6.6gt, but can normally watch DIVX and stuff. My processor is SSE3.

oliver Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 In my case when I insert a DVD, it says " There was an initializaion error A valid video device could not be found for playback. [-70017]" The thing is I used the DVD Playback Patch for SSE2 (8F1111 and 8F1111A) and I still have this problem -------------------------------------------------- P4 2.68 GHz SSE2 GA-8SQ800 SIS 655 chipset GeForce 4 MX 440 AGP8x Realtek ALC650 On-board sound (not working) Icemat audio Siberia USB Soundcard 1GB RAM Maxtor 120GB Netgear GA 311 PCI Ethernet Controller Tiger 10.4.3 (JaS 1111a Generic Pacth v4.2b) LITE-ON DVDRW SHW-1635S Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7846-dvd-player-crashed-on-disk-insert/#findComment-49519 Share on other sites More sharing options...
quixos Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 hyperthreading must also be disabled. one more for your checklist. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7846-dvd-player-crashed-on-disk-insert/#findComment-49557 Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_dingman Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 Ok, so I patched the ISO before I burned it with the maxuss patch... is that all I needed? My Video card is an ATI radion 9700 Pro, and from the preformance I've gotten, and the fact that Apple uses these cards, I believe it is supported. My CPU is an Athlon 64 3200+, no hyperthreading on it.

39thRonin Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 So, I can open DVD player, and it will stay up as long as there is no DVD in the drive. As soon as I insert a DVD "the application DVD Player has unexpectadly quit". Any ideas? Most people have had trouble with the MacOS DVD player. A very usable alternative is VLC, which works just fine for me...

anomaly Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 I get the same error that Oliver gets when I put a dvd in my system. I've also downloaded VLC (since I love it) but it doesn't really help, the dvd is choppy going at around 10-15fps. I ripped the dvd using mac the ripper but didn't have much more success with that. I've also tried watching normal DivX AVI files and it runs better but still not 100%, maybe 20-25fps. I'm using 10.4.3 1111a patch from JaS. Athlon 3200+ @ 2.33ghz, nForce 4 chipset, 7800GT vid card. It'd be nice to get this sorted out if its an easy fix Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7846-dvd-player-crashed-on-disk-insert/#findComment-69651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
