Using MP 1.0.0.0
Moving-Pictures latest (0.6.3)

I have Daemon Tools installed, I have .iso added as a file type extension under videos in the general menu. ISO play fine from within MP.

Moving-Pictures works fine, shows the cover art, synopsis, etc. When I select a movie to play (ISO), I see the "mounting" pop up from Daemon Tools, but the movie never starts to play.

What am I missing?

This could possible be due to a change in behavior in MediaPortal 1.0. We have already reworked this logic a bit for the next release so this is probably already resolved, but can anyone else confirm problems with mounted image playback?

And Speedy, if you try clicking play a second time does the movie play?

At work now, will try clicking play again and report results by 6pm CST tonight.

Just tested.....

If I click play a second time, the movie DOES play within Moving-Pictures. Do I need to adjust some setting somewhere?

I am guessing it has something to do with the autoplay settings for DVD playback. Currently Moving Pictures will check if you have autoplay active for inserted DVDs in MediaPortal. If it is active then Moving Pictures will mount the DVD via Daemon Tools and then let autoplay take over. If it is not active, then it mounts and then plays. It sounds to me like for some reason on your system autoplay is not enabled but Moving Pictures thinks it is. I will investigate more tomorrow and if I can manage to reproduce the problem, I will open an issue on the tracker. For now you may try playing around with the settings in the Daemon Tools section of MediaPortal.

Thanks. I'll try playing with options and let you know if I find anything.

also, what version of daemon tools are you using? i encountered several problems with newer versions of daemon tools, so i went back to version 4.03.
