Blu-Ray / HD-DVD Player with PowerDVD (a working solution) - Page 12

MoPhat · 2008-02-19, 08:10

Hi sgt_boink, the HD_Starter (first post) does only use the escapte button to navigate back to MP if PowerDVD is in fullscreen.

If your remote does navigate correctly in MP (!?) must be something wrong at your system.

Or have you remaped the keys and have modyfied the keyboard.xml file or using a keyboard plugin?

Please ask the creator from BlackMyst if her provide a "original" logo for Blu-Ray or HD-DVD.

thx

Hi MoPhat, thanks for responding. No, I haven't done anything like remapping the keyboard. FWIW, the original HD_Starter that you posted did quit correctly when I hit the escape key. My system uses IRTrans for the remote, which BTW is the exact same as the MCE remote version 2005. IRTrans has to be set up to use one of several remote databases; I ended up using the mediacenter one.

Have you tried the version of the HD_starter.exe that I posted?

I keep hitting this brick wall...the IRTrans module keeps telling me that the back button indeed sends "back" into MP...but the plugins that use the back button don't seem to work. This is under Win XP SP2. All other buttons seem to work correctly in MP. One poster mentioned that "clear" worked for him? Not for me....argh!

Hey.
Also got a problem with the Plugin. After using the new MultiShortcut.xml and changing the direction and the pluginID can "start" the HD Player.
But now(also before clicking HD Player) MP is always on top, although the point is disabled in the configuration menue! Pls help...
edit:
And another problem appears: in the Background a window appears: "An older instance of this script is already running. Replace it with this instance? Note: To avoid thies message, see #SingleInstance in the helf file"
If i click "yes" PDVD startds, if i click "No" nothing happens...
Where is the #SingleInstance located? And which help file?

Thx for help

Works nicely for me.
Now the only problem is that powerdvd does not have any support for selecting the what you want it to play by remote. If for instance I want to play a backup of a disc that it on the HDD I'm having to get the keyboard.

Anyway, thanks for the great work.

thanks for the great work...with Adam's version, my MCE remote back button is working as expected and it's great to see PDVD integrated.
