[QUOTE="LongTimeMakUser, post: 1286235, member: 212477"] We just got u-verse installed on our Imac Desktop too! We've used our DVD player to play DVDs for years now. We had to get off our old internet, cuz AT&T convinced us to go with their u-verse and we couldn't risk getting fined a $150 from our previous Internet/tv provider, because we'd just signed up and they only gave us a 30 day trial period. AT&T made us wait 6 long weeks to install the u-verse internet and the U-verse TV which doesn't work in our main room and only worked for like an hour after the installer left our place! Now the last 2 months we've been using our DVD player religious to watch movies as we had no cable tv at all, and cud only get one station. Today I go to install a DVD into our DVD player and the sound comes on, but no picture is visible! I tried 4 different DVDs and it's all doing the same thing.. no picture on the DVD player, though the sound's coming thru fine.. Also the closed captioning is working, mean it will print out the words they are saying, but no picture. I clicked on the Help Icon at the top of the desktop and the words Supported Features, but this is what it's saying... Quartz Extreme Unsupported Transparency Unsupported Thumbnails Unsupported Video Zoom Unsupported Video Color Unsupported Video Deinterfacing Unsupported Audio Equalizer Supported HD Unsupported Now, the technician who came over to install the U-verse internet, this week, which is on the same computer which is having DVD picture problems also hooked up the u-verse TV in our family room, which only worked for about an hour, then quit! I'm wondering if he messed up my computer hooking up this u-verse internet, cuz the DVD player and its picture was working perfectly before they installed this U-verse. Also I cannot get them to even fix the u-verse TV in our family room. They told us to hold power button and such, and push some buttons but it didnt' work! Now they're saying they'll charge us $55 just to come over and repair the TV possibly! I'm sick of AT&T already.. I could have gone with the DSL and not had to deal with this problem. We also have a TV with a TV signal that works, though that's in the same room the computer is in, which is having the DVD picture problems. What do I need to do to get my DVD player back to playing the picture? I wonder if the AT&T technician pushed some button or made some adjustments on my computer and that's why it's SUDDENLY not working?? :'( [/QUOTE]
