Today I finally managed to do some tests with 1.1Pre and BD-J and madVR
(MadVR renderer will try it best after arranging the video codec)

So far I have always uses Arcosft TotalMedia Theatre as an external player in MP,
first because I still consider the best video codec for image quality:
Definition, color accuracy, and in general a natural made without digital artificiality.

Second, for the lack of the full menu support

Of course MediaPortal worksperfectly with TMT Video codec,
only that so far it lacked the BD-J support in MP.

Today, after several tests I found that BD-J works perfectly with disc menus that I have tried so far, with LAV filter no problem.

Instead the problem is when I use the video codecs TMT:
if I run the film from the main title is no problem,
but if I run the disc from the menu, the movie starts but then can not view or manage the menu screens:
with some disc, appear unmarked keys or directions,
with other disc black screen.

I tried to register other .ax from TMT folder, but without success.
It can be a problem of DirectX or Java?

attached log

Thank you :)

    Hello again

    but if I run the disc from the menu, the movie starts but then can not view or manage the menu screens:
    with some disc, appear unmarked keys or directions,
    with other disc black screen.
    The attached patch should solve this problem. :)
    1. Close MP and MP Config.
    2. Open Windows File Explorer.
    3. Navigate to your MP install folder (c:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal).
    4. Make a backup copy of Core.dll.
    5. Extract the attached Core.dll to replace the standard/current one.

    Wow, Thank you very much, Works !!!! :)

    Now MP runs with TMT codecs and full support to the full menu.
    Now, however, trying madVR, I discovered that in combination with TMT codec does not work, or rather, I press start and appears a pink screen, with audio that runs in the background, however, the start bar I see two windows, one pink and one where you see the video.
    to help you understand I had prepared a video, but it is too large to load ..

    Hmmm, your previous log files show that you did:

    it is likely, but then I saw that nothing changed and I took everything.
    This is the last log, no codec in post-processing

    Okay. :)

    Two video renderers will give two windows. That's why you see the purple and video windows.

    Can you use GraphStudio to get a picture of the graph?

    Could you explain the steps for using GraphStudio ?
