So my setup has been running pretty well for around the last year, but I have a few remaining gripes that I wanted to check and see if anyone else is experiencing, and has resolved.
1) VM crashes when watching video using Silverlight (ie Netflix)
My VM will randomly have its video lock up and become unresponsive when watching Netflix in a Windows 7 VM using the MCE interface, but I've verified it happens in Firefox as well. Latest Silverlight revision. I tried newer ATI drivers, no luck, and in fact made it worse so I reverted. Sometimes it will run fine for a long time, other times it will crash 10 minutes apart. Very frustrating, I've considered creating a script to detect when tools is nolonger responsive and reboot the VM, but of course I'd rather fix this if possible. Also, it never locks up when playing regular MCE recorded video from my TV tuners.
2) Strange wireless keyboard/mouse behavior
I'm using a Logitech DiNovo keyboard with integrated touchpad, with the receiver connected to a passed through USB hub to the VM mentioned above. I occasionally experience strange latency to commands, and actual full dropouts. Its possible this is the result of some kind of interference at my house, but I thought I'd check since it was quite weird, and sporadic.
Thanks!
