SYMPTOMSIf your video player uses Qdvd.dll and uses DirectShow, your video player might stop responding (hang) when you change the screen resolution.
For example, this issue may occur if you are using the Graphedt.ext tool from the Microsoft Direct Show SDK to show
video from a TV card in Microsoft Windows 2000. When you change the screen resolution
from 1024 X 768 to 800 X 600, Graphedt.exe hangs and then quits.
CAUSEThis issue is caused by a problem with Qdvd.dll in Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition, and Microsoft Windows 98.
A "STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW" exception is caused by Qdvd.dll when you change
the screen resolution. RESOLUTIONTo resolve this issue, install DirectX 9.0. The Qdvd.dll DLL in DirectX 9.0 corrects this problem. To install DirectX 9.0, visit the following Microsoft Web site: MORE INFORMATIONThis problem does not occur with Qdvd.dll in Microsoft Windows
