i used to use meedio but since it got sold to Yahoo! i turned to MP
after initial testing id like to get some questions answered
meedion ran great on my axp1800+ 512MB 6600gt on my epson emp-tw6000 (1280x720 projector with hdmi)
i installed MP and first thing that bugged the hell out of me was that even if i disable the my pictures module, the setup program says i need to configure it (why?!)
then onto using it
i configured nvdvd for dvd's and sticked in the first dvd that i found
it took AGES for the dvd to actually start playing is this because of bad coding or is MP so powerhungry that my cpu isnt enough (dvd was mint condition so dont even try to blame it on that
)
first serious error came when i pressed the "start" button on my mce remote while the dvd was playing in the menu. the small now playing window seemed to intercept all the "arrow" commands from the remote, which resulted in a deadlocked MP
Also the dvd player didnt automatically zoom the widescreen, but non anarmophic source to fill the 1280x720 screen
then i tested random xvids, divxs etc i had lying around, all was peachy, apart from the now playing window when browsing thru the menus while some video was playing. the window was all over the place, over the menus, not visible, and from time to time actually in the right place!
not trying to undermine the thing thats going on here but this product seems nothing like i got used to with meedio (sadly)
some questions
- is it possible via plugins or something to
a) get a meedio type OSD when playing videos (when you play up once you get a progress meter, when twice you get the usual commands like play, menu, subs, angle etc)
b) get rid of the preview window
c) other things to make mp run smoother
d) something else i forgot but will prolly ask again later when i play around with MP more
flame me, help me, either way is fine by me
