I was curious if there is a way to make Media Portal play DVD ISO's without mounting them or anything. Currently they aren't even showing up in my movies list.

You need to add .iso into your Movie Extensions within MP config. And to answer your question, only mountable through Daemon which is done automatically anyway (see MP Config General Settings).

Yup. You also want to turn off 'Secure Mode' otherwise Daemon will ask you whether you want to play the cd/dvd everytime MP mounts it.

I was just about to ask about that! :) Also... I have like several movies backed up. Garfield the movie the preview work the menu works and everything but the main movie doesn't have a picture. Cloverfield works perfect. Not sure whats going on here... Maybe I need to install a DVD codec but then why does Cloverfield work? I have CoreAVC installed right now.

For DVD's you need an MPEG2 codec such as Cyberlink's PDVD7 or 8...

Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database". Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

Many many years ago, I opened a bug report after I got that same message but I never got a reply. The reason was I had unchecked the Windows Media Player item in Windows 10 Control Panel > Program and Features > Turn Windows features on or off as I didn't need it, without thinking that it was needed by MediaPortal. I kept the "Media...
