[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 275130, member: 11550"] Hi Craig, DVD can be tricky. The reason for this is that it is difficult for an OpernSource project to decode DVD signals as commercial disks use encryption and any codecs that can decode the encryption are meant to pay royalites. The good news is that there is an easy solution :) Just install a program like PowerDVD (even just the trial version) then in MP configuration for the DVD section, where you specify the DVD Codec to use, specify the PowerDVD codec. This will have the facility to read the commercial disks. Also, MP has to abide by region codes, so if you are plauing disks from different regions then you need to use a program that will automatically remove the region coding. Since this web site is hosted in Germany and Germany has some very strict copyright laws, I can't actually link to any such app, but if Google doesn't help, PM me and we can have a chat. Ah, Good old Jaycar :) [/QUOTE]
