[QUOTE="marco75, post: 645764, member: 79337"] MP's Internal DVD player was not compatible enough, so I decided to use the PowerDVD 7 that came with the drive. It plays movies well enough (I had to disable XP's Autoplay for DVD movies), audio is fine, and it will play DVDs that the internal player won't. However, all the controls are PowerDVD (N=next chapter, P=previous chapter, Enter=Play, S=Stop) whereas MP uses F8=next chapter, F7=previous chapter, Space=Play, F2=Stop). Won't that cause a problem when I start using a MCE remote? Also, now the only way to quit playback and return to the previous screen is Alt+F4. Not very elegant! Is there a way for PowerDVD to be controlled by MP, so it uses the same keys? Thanks for reading! My settings: MP Config > DVD Discs/Images > DVD Discs/Images Player > [ ] Use MediaInfo for DVDs. This can slow down playing start! External Player: [x] Use external player [replaces internal player] Path/Filename: C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDVD\PowerDVD.exe Parameters: %filename% MP Config > Codecs and Renderer > [DVD Discs/Images Codecs] > DVD Navigator: CyberLink DVD Navigator (PDVD7) DVD video decoder: CyberLink Video/SP Decoder (PDVD7) DVD audio decoder: CyberLink Audio Decoder (PDVD7) Audio renderer: CyberLink Audio Renderer (PDVD7) [b]MediaPortal Version[/b]: 1.1.0 [b]MediaPortal Skin[/b]: blue3 [b]Windows Version[/b]: XP SP3 [b]CPU Type[/b]: Intel Celeron 2.27 [b]HDD[/b]: WDC WD3200AVJB-63WKA0 (Data, IDE Slave) WDC WD800JB-22JJA0 (System, IDE Master) [b]Memory[/b]: 1x 512 MB 400 MHz CL 2.5 [b]Motherboard[/b]: Asus P4S800-MX [b]Video Card[/b]: ATI 9600 [b]Video Card Driver[/b]: 8.162.0.0 [b]Sound Card[/b]: SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio [b]Sound Card AC3[/b]: n/a [b]Sound Card Driver[/b]: 5.12.1.3665 [b]1.
