I wanted to see how this worked with powerDVD so I snagged the trial version. Turns out it's PowerDVD12. I pointed the 'player executable' to the player itself so the media manager does not open. The problem I am having is that I cannot get powerdvd player to close after hitting the stop button. Sorry for my ignorance but what am I missing? Does anyone have a keyboard shortcut that works as the normal X to close a window is not an option?
I was experimenting with this the other day. if you get EventGhost you can set up a macro for when you press stop to close your player. I also managed to get the skip forward/skip back and menu buttons working with CinePlayer as it doesn't have any proper remote support!
What marco did you setup? I saw earlier in the thread that ixdvc posted the following:
Code:taskkill /F /IM PowerDVDCinema10.exe
Is that what you ended up doing domb?
OK, figured it out using the code above with Eventghost. Took me a bit to figure it out though because I didn't uncheck 'disable HID...', so it kept disable my MCE remote. Unchecked the option and everything works great.
