    I have the exact same problem, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I also cannot enable software deinterlace with region selector, I get an error message saying that an error has occurred in module cinmst32.dll or something like that!

    Thanks in advance

      Guys, is this off a clean reboot? Is this with the original Cinemaster engine that comes with Matrox?

      I've had that problem before, but a reboot seems to solve it...One other thing. When you hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, what programs are currently being run?

          I've had that problem as well, it has happened at least once every time I install it, and if I have other players installed it comes up repeatedly.

            I had the exact same problem with the 2.0.36 engine. I think the best engine to use is the one that came with the installation disk. However if you are trying to fix the Matrix DVD, you can use the original engine and then copy the file dvdpld32.dll from the 2.0.36 engine to your windows/system directory. This will make the Matrix special features accessible from the original engine. I actually learned that trick from this forum.

            I think this will also fix problems with Blair Witch, but I haven't tried it with that extremely non-frightening movie yet.

                I have problems running the Matrox DVD player for other reasons (ie. my damn cpu is too slow), but if it doesn't run choppy (if you can get it to work), you might want to try another DVD player. If you have the sys resources, try Power DVD maybe. The problem I have is it takes a faster comp than I have (K6 - 300) and a lot of RAM.

                  Do you have VisualC++ installed? That might qualify as a debugger in their terms. Too bad they don't know it doesn't matter now: DVD (CSS encryption) has already been cracked.

                    Wombat,

                    I recently reinstalled Windows, with no applications installed, just the normal windows drivers, I installed the Matrox DVD player from the CD, no updates, and at the end of the install the error came up. This happened to be under Win95, I've had the error under Win98 as well. Rebooted and it worked fine, well as fine as it can work.
