[QUOTE="dastrong, post: 208185, member: 61002"] Hi All I have a workaround that some of you might like. It will mean that you cannot access the menus. But hey do we really care about silly java menus on a disk. Here goes: Locate Any DVD HD. Latest if you can. Install this program. It will remove any AACS from the Bluray disks you are using. Install either Power DVD 7.3 ultra with the either build 2911 or above (if you have a ati uvd card or an nvidia 8xx0 series card) or the latest K-LITE Codec pack. Install Hali Media splitter (Ar) version. Use DSMgr to make the Direct Sub DS Filters to not be used. Make sure that the Power DVD H.264 and Audio filters are set to preferred. Go into the Mediaportal config and make sure m2ts (this workaround is for bluray by the way) is a known file type. Make sure that the Audio decoder is Power DVD. Make sure that the H.264 video decoder is Power DVD. In the DS Filters settings make sure that EVR is enabled if you are using Vista, the audio is set to six speakers and that PDVD is set to HA HD content. Now from media portal movies load a bluray disk. Navigate to the streams folder. Select the largest m2ts file. This will be movie. Launch. Ignore the error about a decoder. Now you can watch the full Bluray movie with out having to ever leave media portal. [/QUOTE]
