[QUOTE="Sanity_1977, post: 698254, member: 109558"] Hi Guys Thanks for your responses so far, the forums here are awesome. I've been having some issues with playing DVD's in mediaportal. I have an LG BluRay drive and I understand that's it's complication to play DVD discs at the moment so I'm not to worried about that for now, however I'd at least like to be able to put in a DVD and have it play that from within MediaPortal. I know it can be done and it seems to work fine on my other computer but not my dedication media PC. I was playing around with it the other day and I'm pretty sure that I got to a point where I thought, stuff it I'll just reinstall MediaPortal over the top. I think that fixed it temporarily. It did stop working again. I do have the DVD plugin enabled and also MovingPictures. It seems to get to a point where I put the disc in and MediaPortal recognises it, asks if I'd like to play it, but then when I say yes it does nothing. I"m happy to send through the logs but which logs are required and are they all located in C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log? I also found yesterday that when I played a BluRay disc via PowerDVD 10 Ultra, with MediaPortal shut down that once I finished watching the movie, went into MediaPortal that my home screen was showing a movie overlay saying that the most recent movie I had was the BluRay disc. I'm guessing this is just because I have MediaPortal set to download movie info of optical discs as well. On a side not, I have no idea to play a DVD using MovingPictures. Is this just automatic when you put a disc in or do I need to select the drive somewhere? I have customised Moving Pictures to go directly to a list of Genres or All Movies so perhaps I've done something wrong there and I no longer get the optical drive listed as an option. Oh, by the way, I now have an image of a clean build of Windows 7 but no codecs or MediaPortal installed so if something messes up I can get back to the Windows basics quickly. I am currently only using the SAF 4.0 codecs and PowerDVD 10 installed. Thanks in advance for any help. [/QUOTE]
