Hi,

there is a Problem, i could not find any solution.

I have installed the StreamedMP Skin and start i start Mp in the Basic home Screen, but i don't know, how i can get the HP Starter button in the Basic Home Screen....

In the StreamdMP Skin configurator i can't find any skin or file on the left side that sounds like HP Starter....

Have anyone a solution for that Problem?

Andijegg,

You can use the arcsoft xml that was released on the newest build of StreamMP skin. Set the window id to the one mentioned in the arcsoft xml. Runs fine for me this way if you use the hd_starter code that closes MP instead of minimizing it during bluray play.

Hi,

Thanks for this great plug-in and your work!

I have set it up on my HTPC today and it's working quite well with PDVD 7.3 and MediaPortal 1.0 final - There are no problems at all.

The installation with your guide was pretty easy.

Hello.
I have it working with totalmedia very nicely, thank to all of you but, there is something that I don't understand:
Why should I change the refresh rate???
I have removed from the autokey code the line that supposedly do that, and there is no difference.
I have tried that with my 480p Proyector, 720p output interpolated, a 42" pioneer plasma in 1080p (not mine, unfortunaly ), and lcd computer monitor and none of them shows any difference that i can see.
can some of you please explain why is that required or recommended?.
thank you!!
indkt.

Is it just me or is this not a real plug-in. It is only a compilation of "shortcuts" and does not integrate PowerDVD into MP... am i missing something or are you guys just happy with the minimize/maximize, run routine. Doesnt anyone know a way to INTEGRATE HD-DVD and BluRay into the MP experience, so that everything is handles using MP...

 

[Tshoco]

As far as I know (correct me) is there no way to integrate any HD-DVD / Blu Ray software player.

With PowerDVD Release 7.3319a it's possible to play BR-ISO's. Select your Movie with MyFilms, MovingPicture or whatever with activated (automount) Daemon-Tools and switch to the Blu-Ray / HD-DVD Player Plugin. The only thing you have to do now is pressing the PLAY button. That's the only way I know to handle BR-Movies within MP.

 

[Snader]

The only thing you have to do now is pressing the PLAY button.

When using a script like HD starter made with Autokey, you can send an ENTER to PowerDVD, which is equivalent to PLAY. Be sure though, that the application has load completely and is idle before sending the ENTER.

Hi

did sb try to replace the
run with a runwait
so, the script waits until pdvd8 is on and
switches later

here is my code (i disabled the hotkeys)

SetTitleMatchMode, 2
 
; Start sequence
IfWinNotExist, CyberLink PowerDVD
{
 WinActivate, MediaPortal
 ;Stops Media playing in MP
 Send {b}      
 
 ;Sends to ATI profile to switch 24hz mode / CTRL+SHIFT+4
 ;Send, ^+4
