    Can't play WMV files properly

    I am having a problem with Irfanview. It didn't used to do this, but suddenly it started doing it, and it is really annoying. When I try to use it to play a wmv file, it will play it, but if I want to move the seek bar to fast forward it, or go back (I am using the internal player without directshow) then it just freezes, and I need to wait a few minutes, as which point the video will have stopped playing (the picture at least, not sure about the sound), but I can then access irfanview again.

    It will work if I use the IV_Player option, but I like the internal player, as you don't get a new window opening, and I can just use the directional buttons to seek manually (doesn't quite work as well in the directshow option).

    Could anyone help me in this regard? I am using Windows Vista Premium, and have WMP11 installed.
