    HDR with 4K UHD blue-rays?

    I would have to know more details, and ultimately, I'll have to test it when I get my new display, but an AI answer I got (I don't trust AI and this may not be correct) was that HDR is encoded with the HEVC codec and I know MePo uses the HEVC codec to play 4K UHD Blue-ray discs. So, there is at...

    SiliconDust HDHomeRun Flex 4K and ATSC 3.0

    Sorry to hear about Pablik. His contribution to the team will be hard to replace. I do know that he said he did the initial work of adding AC4 decoding to MePo, so for another developer to pick that up might not be that difficult if a release of ffmpeg that supports AC4 appears. For myself, I...

    HDR with 4K UHD blue-rays?

    Does MePo 1 pass the HDR metadata, Dolby Vision, HDR10, etc., along to the display when playing 4K UHD Blu-ray discs? If not, are there any known solutions that would pass along that metadata. I'm about to upgrade my display to a 4K display that supports HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10, 10+, etc, and...

    SiliconDust HDHomeRun Flex 4K and ATSC 3.0

    I know this is an old thread. However, I've still been looking at ATSC 3.0 tuners (since I'm about to upgrade my display to a TV that does not have an ATSC 3.0 tuner is it), and more and more are advertising encrypted channel support. Some, not all, have been tested by users and they find that...

    Alternatives to AnyDVD HD?

    Copy the dll to the "Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal" for me, that is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal" That is all you need to do. You may also be interested to know that MePo works for UHD-BR discs (as long as you have a compatible BR drive that is updated to a MakeMKV Libre...

    1.34 UHD Blu-ray "Cannot Play Index" error

    @Pablik I finally got back to this, and I got it working. What I did was this. I intended to copy the UHD-BR disc to my local hard drive, so I put the disc in the drive, and then brought up MakeMKV. In MakeMKV I went through the initial steps to copy the UHD-BR disc to my drive, and while...

    1.34 UHD Blu-ray "Cannot Play Index" error

    Thanks for your reply. I updated the firmware on my BD drive, (it is a "Certified" UHD drive) with the requisite firmware quite some time ago. AnyDVD HD was able to read and decrypt the disc, and in other posts I've made to these forums about UHD discs, it worked without issue. Is there...

    1.34 UHD Blu-ray "Cannot Play Index" error

    I found a very old thread with a similar issue on regular Blu-ray discs, and it was apparently traced to an encryption issue. Is this possibly a decryption issure? I should be fine with MakeMKV for decrypting UHD Blu-ray discs, however, I will check the MakeMKV configuration just to be sure. If...

    1.32 Resume not working properly/ No DTS-HD Master audio output from Blu-ray

    I realize this is a (very) old thread, however, I just discovered something that may have been the problem all along, and thought you might like to know. I had a Yamaha RX-A1050 HTR receiver. About three weeks ago, I started having problems where the HDMI audio from Windows, itself (11 Pro)...

    1.34 UHD Blu-ray "Cannot Play Index" error

    I just uninstalled AnyDVDHD due to RedFox being no longer reachable, and I have taken the MakeMKV route described in this thread. While I can play at least one DVD and at least one Blu-ray disc, I tried playing a UHD Blu-ray disc and I get an error message whether or not I tell MePo to resume...

    Alternatives to AnyDVD HD?

    Thanks for the replies. I'm glad MePo is "code ready" for an alternative like this. If I copy the dll to the MePo directory as you indicated, will MePo be able to read any files I've ripped to disk? I realize that decoding BR disks on the fly eliminates the need to do this, however, sometimes...

    Alternatives to AnyDVD HD?

    I don't know how many of you are aware of this, however, it may be that AnyDVD HD has finally come to an end. Their web site can no longer be found, and any attempt to decode Blu-rays or UHD Blu-rays fails due to the fact that AnyDVD HD cannot connect to their server. My question is that will...

    SiliconDust HDHomeRun Flex 4K and ATSC 3.0

    Yes, you are correct in that ATSC 3.0 is still evolving in the US. However, I tend to not give too much credit to predictions that of the sort that say all ATSC 3.0 stations will eventually be encrypted. There are many broadcasters out there that I doubt will ever adopt encryption for their...

    1.32 Resume not working properly/ No DTS-HD Master audio output from Blu-ray

    Thanks again for all the replies. I found the setting. It is in MP Config under General -> Startup/Resume settings and its "Stop playback on removal of an audio renderer". It was set On, so I turned it off, and it seems, so far, anyway, that it has corrected the problem of playback stopping...
