Hi!! Excited to join the community !!

Downloaded Dharma and am very impressed. I got quite a bit working compared to the earlier release which I abandoned, having had some much more basic issues.

Anyhoo, I have a few things bugging me so I'll start with my most important struggle with Blu-Rays. These are all ripped via AnyDVD HD to folders on WHS.

Finding and scraping worked.

Sopranos will play but jumps straight to first episode. The MAIN MENU seems to be the last option; if I keep hitting fast forward I do get to it (?).

Some play fine but Aliens Anthology does not play at all see log below. I was hitting each option (ie each seperate disk) but I keep getting the same error.

Don't think xbmc supports full blu-ray playback - ie no menu support - folder format is recognised for scraping purposes, but xbmc will only play the main movie title. Oops this would only be for the Sopranos issue - no idea why Aliens doesn't work.

So, can I trigger Arcsoft Totalmedia to automatically fire then collapse back into XBMC with a "menu" button or something similar?

You don't say which OS, but if running windows have a look here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=64658
