[QUOTE="dither, post: 394892, member: 71258"] Let me start with .... WWWWWOWWW! Moving Pictures is EXACTLY what we needed, you were dead on! It was easy to configure, easy to set up for scan, accurate (95%) on the scan, and easy to correct the ones that were not right. Visually, it adds a lot to the process of picking a movie, and the WAF was high (always a BIG bonus) As for configuring MP to use the PDVD codecs, here's what I found: MP's NATIVE player uses 12% (avg) cpu. PDVD(8 or 9) with Hardware Acceleration (nVidia purevid) uses 12% PDVD 9 using all three True THeater options (which requires HardWare acceleration to be turned OFF) uses 90% CPU, and frankly didn't improve the picture very much. Also found that using MP's player freezes MP when the movie ends, (no matter which codecs I use) and I can't even bring up TaskManager to kill the MP, I have to hit the reset button on my puter. This was on my desktop (running XP SP3) so it may have worked with Vista, but right now my solution for using PDVD8 with MP, and PDVD9 as a stand alone for those times I use BlueRay is sufficient - - - now that I have Moving Pictures. I should probably mention I LIKE IT!! I'm going to keep an eye out for any fix to the PDVD9/IFO issue, but 'til it's solved I'm happy with how it all works. And thank you Steve for ALL of your help.
