I played a DVD for the first time (after security update as well) and my macbook pro is going crazy with DVD movies... the video jumps all over, and slices up in little sections. It's like trying to watch a porno on cable channels you don't have. How can I take a screenshot? It does it on all DVDs. Can somebody else put in a dvd and watch for crazy vertical shifting artifacts.. It's impossible to watch a movie. Can somebody please try a dvd and let me know...

How can I screenshot it? This really ruins the experience for me. :-( I can't watch any movies. It does it in frontrow too.

What's even Stranger is that the DVD plays perfect in VLC (powerpc) emulation!!!

I just popped in my Indiana Jones DVD and it seems to be playing fine. Though I did not play it for a long time.
