[QUOTE="Sutekh, post: 385544, member: 72626"] I can echo that installing the UDF driver fixed this problem! However I have run into some other issues, logs attached. They may not be directly Moving Pictures related but I hope you can help anyway. 1. I uninstalled PowerDVD 7 and installed PowerDVD 8 Ultra to fix a hardware acceleration issue. This resolved it, but now I do not have a PowerDVD 8 x264 codec available to media portal. I see a new v8 one for DVD/MPEG2 playback and AC3 audio, but none for x264. Is there a way to fix this? I would prefer to use the internal player for bluray playback as it worked seemlessly for me with PowerDVD 7 (but without the working H/A i had to upgrade). 2. If I set MP to use an external player for Bluray/HD DVD, it will launch PowerDVD 8 fine and play the disc perfectly. Two issues though; how do I exit PowerDVD with my MCE remote? I remember this working with PowerDVD 7 using the HD_Launcher plugin, but perhaps they changed the key? I have to press Alt-F4 on my keyboard (which means locating the keyboard, switiching it on etc). Second issue; when it exits PDVD, media portal crashes mentioning a null exception error. I have attached the full logs that MediaPortal generated. EDIT: Point 1 was resolved by downgrading PDVD8 to revision 2217a. There is a known bug in the latest revision regarding codecs.
