In Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, you may experience unexpected behavior when you rewind or fast forward through a DVD slide show. For example, you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:

• The progress indicator timeline loops between 00:00:00 and 00:00:07 seconds, even though the images progress forward as you expect.

• The rewind operation or the fast forward operation stops on a single picture.
• When you pass from one slide show picture to the next, you cannot return to the previous picture.

This problem may occur if the DVD slide show contains more than 99 pictures.
