    I just bought a new toshiba p100 about a month ago. So far I absolutely love it. THe only problem I have had so far is that when watching video somtimes the screen will start to slideshow. You can hear the movie or show conitiuing to talk, but can 0nly see snapshots. Anyone ahve an idea what would cause this?

    What are you using to watch these videos, what codec packs do you have installed, and what video format are we talking about, .h264, dvd, mpeg4 etc.

    I am using realplayer mostly, jsut switched to Divx 6.4 and ahvnt ahd the problem yet with that one. All of the times that I can remember it happening it has been with realplayer on AVI. files or on a site like www.NBC.com with the streaming episodes.
