    I´m using MP 1.0.2. Does this plugin work with 1.0.2?

    Should work, at least it works on my HTPC with 1.0.2.

    Can I use my Imon to control it?

    Not sure, most likely not as it is likely that MCE player doesn't support it.

    Is it still under development?

    I haven't touched the code for many months, but there are still some future plans to enchance the user experience (additional remote contorl support, PowerDVD support etc.)

    Lots of questions...

    Not that many I would say :p

    I admit i'm lazy and didn't read all 31 pages.
    I tried arcsoft and while i was able to get video just fine.
    I got no audio. I use SPDIF as my audio output.
    PDVD9 played both video and audio. so i know it works.
    Anyone familiar with arcsoft run into this and know how to fix it?

    I've the same problem and didn't find a way to fix it. Thats why I'm using PowerDVD.

    I have an annoying 1 sec audio sync issue with pdvd9 and for some reason nothing will stretch full screen for me.
    everything has the black bars at top and bottom (i run 1920 x 1080 / 1080p)
    checking the "strech to full screen " in pdvd9 does nothing. and of course the already mentioned audio sync issue.

    so i thought i'd give arcsoft a try.. but get no audio, even though i switch it to spdif.

    I wish there were more software BR options the 2 choices we have seem to have problems.

    Will this plugin be maintained in the future? I think this will be a fine solution for getting BD playback working integrated in MP.

    I personally prefer PDVD7. Maybe you should try this one.

    Is that updated anymore? So that it can play all the latest blu-ray releases.

    I don't think that there will be updates anymore, but until now I hadn't any problems. But to be honest I didn't got a new blu-ray for a while now, so maybe there are some that don't work? You seem to know more than me than :)

    At least Arcsoft and PDVD9 has had updates to allow latest blu-ray disks to be played (thanks to copy protection again...). So, PDVD7 might not be that good choise.
