If you use AnyDVD HD to on-the-fly decrypt the Blueray and then use the MediaPortal Blueray Player plugin (which will allow you to play the videos on the blueray but not see the menus), then you can use the normal MediaPortal codecs to watch the bluerays natively with MediaPortal. This will allow you to use FFDshow.

Just to put my hat in the ring. I put all the TV-box sets I buy I use DVD Decrypter to rip the discs to hdd. I then use handbrake to convert them h264/ac3 passthru. A 42 minute episode takes between 900mb and 1200mb with no loss of quality - a 8gb disc of CSI ends up as 4gb. I normally run them through with 424 width and...

Sounds to me as if you're using a poor RSS-feed. I've got a RSS-feed that's only showing tv-shows, and then I've added filters that downloads the shows I want and excludes complete seasons.

Yes, you can move the system drive. Or, you can migrate- Manually migrating to a new Home Server ? MediaSmartServer.net .

There is a MP plugin that adjusts the volume differential between different tv channels, but I don't think this influences the movie volume. If you add either ffdshow audio codec or ac3filter audio codec to video or tv post processing, you can add gain control to increase the gain which will effectively increase the volume. Both...

Hi All, I've just installed PDVD9 Ultra (after getting a new HD TV). Blu Rays seem to work fine, although I have no idea if it is using DXVA (CPU usage ~25%).

I use h.264 1200 kbps for SDTV (720x575 px, 25 fps), 2-pass VBR. But you can go down to 1000, still works very nice. For 720p I would use h.264 3000-4000 kbps VBR (1-pass average or 2-pass) at 25 fps (depends on the source, 24p, PAL/NTSC). 720p has about 2x more pixels than SDTV, so it should work at 2400 kbps above.
