[WiP] madVR support in MP1 (34 Viewers)

[Sebastiii]

In MP root folder, you should have the .jar but not sure why it failed for you but maybe libbluray didn't find the needed Java installation too

Try to copy libbluray-j2se-1.0.2.jar to libbluray.jar or the reverse

Could this be the problem, download link is for JRE not JDK,
Screenshot 1 is the Wikki, screenshot 2 is the actual.

Is there an easy way to find out if a Blu-ray title has Java menus? Like for example all discs from a certain studio?
I don't feel like trying all my discs to find one with Java menus just to do a test.

Edit: read on some forum that The Dark Knight uses Java, but no luck with it. Without the JAVA_HOME environment variable, I see an icon of a disc on a black background for one second, then a duration bar (but not MP's one) for a very short moment, then it starts the movie directly. When I add the env. variable pointing to the JRE folder, it goes back to MP Home after the Warner logo clip.
I'm still on some Pre-1.19 MP build though, not sure if that has any influence?

Hi

Most of new BD has a BD-J.

But when starting MP in BDReader.log :

@Sebastiii Got BD-J working*, just needed the correct version of Java, looks like it only works with the SDK (Developement Kit) version. The link in the Wikki is for the regular Java which installs in a folder name e.g. jre.1.8.0_161 and that did not work for me even if the variable is set to reference it.
The SDK version installs in a folder jdk.1.8.0_161 and then BD-J menus work.

* I did notiice that on my test BD (Hobbit part 1_2D) that on first play it went to the menu perfectly but on second play after selecting "Menu" I got a Java menu asking if I wanted to go back to start or continue from last position, regardless of what is selected it starts to play but then stalls and only stop works to return to MP. Next attempt to play is then OK.
Nice work, almost at the point now where PowerDVD is redundant, needs some work on the Wikki though or I was in the wrong place (searched on BD-J).

 

[Sebastiii]

Good find thanks
@azzuro any idea ?

 

[el Filou]

Could this be why: (from @Sebastiii 's post):

bdj.c:303: Opening C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_144\jre\bin\server\jvm ...

?
Standard JRE doesn't have a 'server' folder.
I tried to download the 'Server JRE' ( Server JRE (Java SE Runtime Environment) 8 Downloads ) but it's 64-bit only.

 

[Sebastiii]

No clue, this is weird, but did you try what @joecrow found ? (SDK (Developement Kit) )

 

[el Filou]

I have now but still no luck, it goes back to home screen like it did with the public JRE.
I used The Dark Knight because some Kodi thread from 2015 said its menu worked with libbluray but I'll update to your latest test build and also test with some other discs when I have some time later.

Edit: when I install the JDK but set JAVA_HOME to the JDK folder itself, MP still plays Blu-rays in title mode. I have to append ' \jre ' to the JAVA_HOME JDK path for it to (try to) use the menu!

 

[Sebastiii]

I have the The Dark Knight, so will retry with it on my side
