I had the same problem. It happened repeatedly until I rebooted my machine, and
it seemed to work fine after that. I have not idea what was causing it, though
Media Player 10 was NOT it (I never did install that -- I just made sure Media
Player 9 was installed). Note it should be run from within
Fritz8/Shredder8/Junior9/maybe-others GUI and not by double clicking on the
media files themselves.  That way, the moves discussed are shown on the chess
board and the comments made are reflected on the board with red/green squares,
arrows, etc.
