Both is always better. But we may be able to figure it out with just the client logs.

I have convinced my wife it is in her best interest to help here. I will be walking her through getting the log posted shortly. I am sure she will extract blood for me having her work with the computer....

I was walking my wife through enabling debug_logging and since she had already tried to play a video sage was showing the circling arrow. Well as this never seems to go away.. I had her bring up task manager and kill sage. She then tells me there is a message on the screen from MS OneCare to allow the running of Mplayer.

Items of note: I run Sage Client in FSE mode, Sage Server as a Service, and only use UNCs for imported files.

In the past these messages have popped in front of sage and I have been able to see them and click on allow. I do this each time I install a new version. This time I do remember not being prompted and thinking "ok" they changed something and MPLAYER isn't required. But there it was hidden behind Sage and never came to the foreground. I also know that OneCare recently deployed version 1.5. After I had her click on the allow option and then restarted sage, all imported videos played fine. I then had her remove the debug_logging line from the properties file and restart, and it was still working... Including playback of Ripped DVDs

I don't know if there is a change in FSE in sage that it now works where it doesn't allow popups outside it's application space or perhaps a change in MS OneCare. Either way, Jeff, sorry I don't have a failed log to send in. I hope this is a similiar root cause for others. I am working now. Wife very happy. My Daughter is watching Elmo!

Others with runtime security applications might want to check for similiar issues.

Sent 2 logs trying to open 1) a DVD with just a main feature, which causes a SageTV crash and 2) a DVD with menu structure which causes a SageTV hang...

That's how FSE is supposed to work, Sage should always be the only thing shown when you have FSE working correctly. It was slightly broken in the past so maybe you got used to the broken behavior which was causing other problems for some of us.

For the current RC if you set

videoframe/use_nvidia_pp_when_decoder_selected=false

It fixes the problem for me with Imported DVD's.
