    PowerDVD 8? :eek:

    Is there a download version?

    It should not be a prob. if ^keyboard shortcuts are supported.

    Hey great plugin, really useful! Any chance for a version to support PowerDVD 8? I tried editing the autohotkey script and compiling my own exe, but no luck.

    Cheers,

    Drew

    Does this version allow playback from HDD?

    Have you tryed to use the codec for SD channels, is there a better upscaling from the live.tv?

    Can the "TrueTheater™ Stretch" used on the codec?

    Great plugin!

    How can I change the HD_Starter.exe so it finds c:/program/cyberlink/powerdvd8/powerdvd8.exe instead??

    Great job with this! :)

    Does anyone know if this plugin will work when using a USB-UIRT + EventGhost + MP plugin? I tried installing the plugin and everything went well. PowerDVD starts up fine, but my remote can't do anything once it's open. The keyboard commands work fine, however.

    MoPhat you legend you!
    Have installed this onto a number of my own and a few other peoples HTPCs and runs very nicely...
    Few qns tho,

    1. Is there a way to prevent the " i " (actions) button from openning the help screen when in PowerDVD?

    2. Does anyone else know why when I play certain dvds in powerdvd, why the video has a big black border around it like it hasn't scaled to full screen fully?

    Thnx again, I hope you realise that with this system, you have pretty much made the best and most functional Blu-ray / HD DVD plugin for a media center GUI.

    WD!

    2. Letterboxed movie (ie. not 16x9 anamorphic disc) OR anamorhic disc with aspect ratio <1.77:1 ?? For example a james bond or disney movie with 1.66:1 in anamorphic?
