You should try to select other codecs in Video Settings (CTRL + G)

If none appears, so you should install MPEG2 codecs to your PC. As mention on the official page of DVBDream, Intervideo WinDVD is recommended (but other codecs as nVidia PureVideo, Cyberlink PowerDVD, etc... works fine)

If its after first install of DVBDream, you have to check that you have installed mpg2 decoder and chose it in video settings.

Or if its problem after some time of using DVBDream... i know that isue.
After some time of using DVBDreams (sometimes few weeks, sometimes few months) that msg appears and i cant use old decoder and have to change to other.

It looks like some trial version of codec - Elecard??

Not a bug IMO, moved to General.

What codec it was?? Are you 100% sure it was not any trial version?
