I have used dvd decrypter to record one of my dvds in my hdd and i was wondering if that was all i needed to do to get mp to play my dvds off my hard drive. Do i need to do somthing else to make it work?? :?:

    1) Use DVD Decypter to convert the dvd to an .iso file on the hard drive.
    dvddecrypter how to: http://www.doom9.org/dvddec.htm

    2) Make sure you have deamon tools set up on your htpc.
    Daemon Tools download: http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/daemonhelp.php
    Daemon Tools help: http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/daemonhelp.php

    3) Set up MP to use Daemon Tools...in the MP setup, General/Daemon Tools
    check "Automount .iso/.bin file using Daemon Tools
    use the Browse button to find and enter the location of the daemon tools executable
    make sure you set the virtual drive letter up the same as you did in your daemon tools program setup

    When you rip your dvd, make sure it's saved in a folder you've set up in the MP Setup program under Movies/Movie folders

    Click on the file name My Videos, the ripped DVD should play like a dvd was in a drive

    OK, I found a way to make it work. It seems like MP-TV-series Configuration (and Moving Pictures Configuration) starts as Administrator, and the Administrator do not have yet logged in on the UNC \\192.168.222.247\Public even if the normal user on the PC have done it. So to fix it on the Win 11 HTPC: Created a shortcut to...

    Good. I am pleased that that is now working for you. :) If you have ever looked at MP debug log files, you may have noticed that apparent errors are not rare, but these are "errors" that do not affect the functioning of the product. (It is not desirable to have these errors in the log file, as it misleads users, testers, and...

    I removed all sign of MySQL, rebooted, did a clean reinstall. It reinstalled 5.6, But I've still got both the same problem - unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts. And Hostname is still in red. I don't understand - this is a dedicated TV computer. Unless an update did this I don't know why there's a problem in the...
