hello @all,

some strange thing had happened.
after updating pdvd 7.3 ultra ( inserted a lent bluray, critical update needed)...all works fine.
then I switched to Live TV and want to see HD channels (premiere hd, discovery hd)and it doesn't work.
well, then I had a quick glance into the mp configuration and found out, that there is no h.264 codec for mp available???

does anybody know how to fix it?

Revert the PowerDVD patch, Cyberlink's new policy is that H.264 codec is not to be used outside their application. Sorry, nothing we can do.

that'll switch from bad to worse...so then newer blurays will not work.... or is there another free h.264 codec i can use?

As far as I know, the codecs from PDVD8 don't conflict with the PDVD7 versions i.e. you can have both sets of codecs installed, but you'll need an older version of the PDVD8 codecs - the current versions have the same problem as the current PDVD7 codecs....
