  Greetings. I succesfuly play *.ogm files. It comsumes a considerable amount of cpu, but never lock's up. I've installed mplayer along with the ogm support and ogmtools and it ran perfectly.

  Mayhaps you have a slower cpu and it is not capable of reading such files. I ran my on a AMD duron 750 and 128MB of RAM. 

  Have you tried several *.ogm files? Maybe the problem is in the recording it self?
